The best trailer hitch option we offer for a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 8' Bed with Service Body is the B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver part # BWHDRH25187. This hitch is designed for models with a deep drop tube bumper so it will have the best chance of clearing the service body.
The distance from the top of the mounting flange to the top of the receiver tube is 5.65".

I see you have provided the vertical drop distance. Can you provide the horizontal distance from the last bolt hole to the end of the receiver tube?
