The Hidden Hitch, part # 87487 and Draw-Tite # 75648 are manufactured by the same company so are essentially the same hitch and the measurements are identical. When installed, these hitch have a distance of 1-1/2 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the rear bumper.

The Curt Hitch, part # C13201, measures 3 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the rear bumper.

Both of the hitches have the same towing capacity and very similar installation to the vehicle. And both hitches measure 2-1/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the receiver tube. I have attached a photo of the measurement for the hitches and clearance to the rear of the bumper you can check out.
