I feel the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT37GR is a better option for your 2024 Ford Bronco. This receiver has an extended tube which places the hinge pin hole 3-1/2" behind the rear bumper. This makes it easier to access and allows for clearance behind the spare tire when uses hitch mounted accessories. If you off-road with your Bronco and the extended length of the receiver concerns you for the departure angel over obstacles the Curt # C76WR may be a better option. The end of the receiver does not extend past the rear bumper and places the hitch pin hole 3" inward of the rear bumper edge.
