The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # C31012 and the Curt # C31069 are more similar than different as you stated with the same capacities and mounting location. I reached out to my contact at Curt and the difference between them is the # C31069 is 1 inch higher so it requires more trimming of the air dam but it also gives you more ground clearance. I've attached a photo of the # C31012 to assist.
