Can someone measure the height from the top of their hitch receiver to the ground so I can determine the drop I need? I'm looking to order a drop hitch for my 4X2 Lariat PowerBoost for initial/temporary use until I get a WDH set-up from the RV shop.

If this has been posted somewhere before I apologize.

Nearly all trucks I've seen ordered here are 4x4 which sit about 1.5" higher in the rear. So just be cognizant of that when getting this measurement. (I'm going from 4x2 to FX4 and am expecting to possibly adjust my WDH by a notch)

Totally understand that's why I put my 4x2 in the post. Not sure many 4X2 guys on this forum...so I will take what I get and adjust accordingly.

Bump...still looking for a measurement please...top of receiver hitch to the ground. Supercrew with 18” wheels would be most ideal. I’m going to adjust 1-2 inches for my 4x2 because I know most here have 4x4.
Debating on a 3” or 5” inch drop B&W tow and stow adjustable hitch.

I suggest you swing by a dealership with a tape measure.... In Florida, you aren't too far from dealers. They are all over the place down there.
