Replacement Trailer Connector That Will Fit In Bumper On a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500

Question:

There arent any dimensions listed, and it states the bracket has to be used. I have a 2006 Ram 2500 with factory bumper and a 7 way already installed. Will this fit the factory hole that the current 7 way is in?
