Ball Mount Recommendations for 2003 Buick Century

Question:
What is the height from the ground to the top of the receiver opening on trailer hitch part #36374 when installed on a 2003 Buick Century? Your website says I need to know this in order to order the correct ball mount, but gives no information on what that height might be.

When installed, the top of the receiver will be approximately 12-1/2 inches above the ground.
The Draw-Tite Class II Trailer Hitch, item # 36374, for your 2003 Buick Century is designed to be used with the # 36061 ball mount in the rise position only. The manufacturer has done testing to ensure weight capacity and safety are kept within hitch limits. If your trailer would require a significantly higher or lower ball mount then you should probably not pull that trailer with this vehicle.
The Class 2 ball mount, # 36061 has a rise of 3-1/8 inches and includes the pin and clip.
We have an installation video that your might find helpful, I will provide a link to it.
