The Draw-Tite Class III hitch part # 76138 and Curt Class III part # C13315 are both very similar in design. They are both concealed cross tubes so the only portion of the hitch you will see once installed is the 2" receiver tube sticking out. Both hitches have the same ground clearance so they will sit the same distance from the ground once installed.

I recommend the Draw-Tite part # 76138 because it is a bit narrower in design than the Curt so it attaches to the underside of the frame rail which is easier to insert the hardware. The Curt has larger brackets on the sides that attach to the outside of the frame rail and can be more difficult to maneuver especially if you are installing it by yourself without an extra person.
