Will the Curt Class I Drawbar - 5" Rise Clear My Bumper

Question:

Hi I have a 2014 Ford Focus ST with the C11431 Curt Hidden Hitch installed. I need to pull a Uhaul trailer with a hitch height of 18.5-18.75 inches. I was thinking of getting the C45025 Curt Drawbar with the 19258 2-inch ball. Do you foresee any issues with this?

In order to confirm fit of the Curt Class I Drawbar part # C45025 on a vehicle with a recessed trailer hitch you just need to measure from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer edge of the bumper and make sure it's no more than 8". This one has a 5" rise so the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch will need to be less than 5" from the distance from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on the trailer.

The 2" Hitch Ball part # 19258 is compatible with the Curt Class I Drawbar.
