There is a way to find where the end of the hitch receiver will sit once installed on your 2011 Toyota Tundra, but we have not had a chance to install the Curt Front Mount Hitch, # 31198, on a 2011 Toyota Tundra yet, so I do not have a specific dimension to give you. I also spoke with my contact at Curt to see if he had that information and he was unable to tell me if the receiver will extend past the bumper or be recessed in the bumper.
What I can tell you is the measurement from the forward-most bolt hole on the hitch to the face of the receiver which is 4-3/4 inches (see photo). If you find the forward-mot bolt hole on the underside of the frame of your truck and measure forward 4-3/4 inches, that will tell you where the face of receiver will sit.
