Hitch Receiver Height - 1500 vs. 2500HD

[2019DenaliRed]

I traded in my 2019 1500 Denali for a 2021 Denali 2500HD.  Went to move my small camper after buying the new truck and couldn't get the jack stand high enough on the camper.  After some redneck engineering finally got it attached.  Unfortunately I was not on level ground and only moved it around my property.  Couldn't get a good bead on how un-level the trailer was on the 2500HD.

 

Can someone give me the height from ground up to top of the hitch receiver on the 2019 Denali 1500 so I can figure out how much of a hitch drop I need to buy?  I'm guessing to get exact I need someone with a Denali due to rim/tire size.  Or if there is some handy dandy website that would be great also.  Can't find anything on GMC website related to hitch.

 

I have looked at a few different brands of hitch receiver drops.  Blue Ox appears to be a favorite.  My camper is around 4,000lbs.  Any other recommendations?

Check out etrailer.com. They have what you need at very good prices. I believe they have videos showing how to measure your trailer hitch height and how to measure your trucks receiver height to order the drop that you need. If you need help, contact them and they can guide you through it.

I went the opposite way, from a 1 Ton dually to my 2020 1500, had to measure for the new drop receiver needed.

 

Good luck,

I’ve used this before to help figure out what drop was needed on my old lifted Tacoma, their hitches are stout too.
