Question:
Do you have the measurement from the ground to the top of the inside of the receiver when its installed on the 2019 Mazda 3 hatchback? Im trying to find the correct rise/ for a ball mount. Thanks!

With Class I hitches like the Draw Tite part # 24984 you have to use only the recommended ball mount for the hitch. You are trying to do the right thing by picking out the best rise/drop for your towing setup, but since this is a Class I hitch with lower capacities we have to recommend you stick to the required ball mount # 3593 and then hitch balls like part # 19258 for a 2 inch ball or part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch ball.
