What is the actual depth of the receiver from the center of the hitch pin hole to the backstop? I have a 2 bike rack I want to mount and have been told the depth of class I receivers can vary. Thank you.

The Draw Tite hitch pat # 24897 is a Class I hitch which has the weld stop in the tube that prevents Class II hitch accessories from fitting. So what you really need to do is determine if the accessories you have are Class I compatible or not. If they are this hitch fits and does not require any measuring to confirm. If not, this hitch would not work for you.

For your 2020 Ford Fusion we have a Class II hitch available like the # C12091 which would work either way.
