What is the Width of the Square Tube on the Curt Hitch C13703?

Question

Question:

Hi. Can you tell me exactly how wide the square tube measures on the Curt 13703 Hitch/receiver? Is it exactly 72inch wide, 74inch wide or something else? I am trying to determine if it will work on my camper. Thank you!

The tube itself on the Curt Adjustable Width Trailer Hitch Receiver for RVs part # 13703 is 68" end to end without the wings installed. The wings jut outward to allow the max width measurement to be 72".
