According to my contact in the Tech Services department at Curt Manufacturing, the drop, or distance between the top of the mounting flange of the # 14053 Class IV hitch and the top of the receiver tube is exactly 2 inches. You can see this in the photo I have edited for you.

I have also linked you to the installation instructions.
