When in the through bumper position, from the bottom of the frame to the bottom of the cross tube it looks to be approximately 8-1/2 inches. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.

Through bumper configuration requires a 3 inch square hole to be cut into the plasitc fascia. Position the hole on the vehicle center line 3 1/2 inches below the top edge of the plastic fascia.

We have run into this quite a few times in the past, and the best option will be replacing the Lance 7-pin connector with a standard 7-way blade connector like the #PK12706. This will give you a standard 7-way connector to plug into the factory 7-way…
