Heavy Duty Receiver Hitch Measurements?

I would like to put a receiver hitch on my Humvee. I have found a couple on the auction site and the big "A" that look decent. I wondered if any of you that has one of these could take a measurement for me? I am curious what the dimension is from the floor to the inside bottom of the receiver. I would like whatever I buy to be the same or close to my regular truck so I don't have to adjust the trailer between vehicles. My 5 ton is the same height as my truck. I will fab one of my own up if this one is not close.

This is the one on the big "A".

My regular truck is around 20 3/4.

This must not be a very popular option if none of you have one of these. I thought you guys had all the answers on here!

I will do some looking to see what others are doing for hitches then.

There are quite a few out there. I made my own, welding a HF under bumper receiver to the bottom of my pintle. I'm assuming the lack of response means that most folks hope for somewhere in a range and call it good.

Does it matter how high the square hole is? You just buy the correct piece that adjust the ball height and stick it in the hole. Or, am I missing something?

I was trying to keep from buying yet another hitch or multiple hitches since I need a ball and a pintle. I would like to use what I already have.

I think I am just going to order the receiver that I posted above. Thanks for everyone's help.
