Length of Receiver of Curt Front-Mounted Trailer Hitch for 1999 Chevy Suburban 2500 RWD

Question

Question:

Do you have the actual measurements for this hitch available....I have a 1999 Chevrolet C2500 Suburban RWD with a Ranchhand Grill Guard....It looks like the receiver portion would either come slightly above, or level with the lower support bar of the grill guard, both of which I dont have an issue with cutting the support bar and possibly welding it to the receiver portion...I just dont know how far the receiver portion extends outward from the receiver frame... Thank you in advance

The Curt hitch part #31043 is designed to fit the 2 wheel drive models of the 2000 Chevy 3500. If you have a 4WD model you instead would want the part #31042 for a front hitch.
