Distance from the Center of the Pin Hole to the Ball Mount Platform on the Curt Draw Bar # C45016
Question:
The overall length is mentioned however, I am interested in the measurement between the hitch pin hole and the start of the rise/ section. My subaru outback requires at least a length of 6 to prevent the rise of the hitch from interfering with the rear bumper. What is this measurement for this ball mount? If it is less than 6, I need a 2-5/8 rise willing to go a little over 3 if necessary for a 1-1/4 hitch. What alternative ball mounts would meet this? Thanks.

I went out into our warehouse and measured the distance from the center of the hitch pin to the start of the ball mount platform on the Curt Draw Bar part # C45016 and found it to be 7-1/4 inches so as long as I understood you correctly this ball mount would work well for you.
