Hello there,
For those of you with tow packages, how much drop do you have in your hitch? 2.0", 3.0", 4.0"?
I am just wondering.
Best Regards,
Kevin

I could measure mine, but I don't know where to measure from?? from the top of the ball to the middle of the receiver??

Drop is measured from the top of the shank down. So pretty much you measure from the top of the pin ( Which inserts into your hitch) to where the ball mounts.

i have a 3" suspension lift on mine and a 2" drop reciever seems to do fine for me. could go lower but i opted to keep ground clearance. i get no binding or anything that i can tell while towing my little trailer around.

Thank you very much.

I don't think the info given from each member would be of any value unless you happen to have the same trailer being pulled. For instance, I have a stock height 2002 SLT+ and due to the fact that my trailer sits higher I actually have to use a 1/2" rise to level everything out. Just my $0.02 worth.

I know brordo. But a quick parking lot survey (comparing my knee to hitches) and a walk through a trailer sales lot told me that a 2" or 3" drop is fine for most things I will be pulling.
Thanks for the reply,
Kevin

It will be different for each trailer and obviously different for each vehicle that has had the suspension modified.

A good 2" drop is good for all around.

Sure some are higher and some are lower. Bottom line the 2" is the best all around choice
