Internal Width of Narrowest Portion of Curt Hook with Spring Loaded Safety Latch # C81288

Question

Question:

Your dimensions look great but one important measurement is missing on the C81288. What is the narrowist dimension for sliding a looped cable into the smaller end of the hook? It has to clear the tapered portion where the spring clip is. Can you provide this please?
