Expert Reply:
It's possible but without knowing the model year of your Ford Transit Connect I can't say for sure.
All of the trailer hitch receivers we have from the 2010 through 2013 model years do stick out some from the rear bumper.
However, if you have between 2014 and 2017 the Curt # C13167 sit just under the bumper. Take a look at the picture I've attached that shows the one we installed. I've also linked the install video.
