Then you need to determine the distance from the ground to the top of the trailer hitch ball on your truck. I highly recommend that you purchase a ball mount with the ball already installed to the desired height. Try to stay away from adjustable height ball mounts. They just add additional failure points.
Walmart has a good selection of quality ball mounts. You could take a tape measure with you. Go in and buy a mount that looks good and slide it in your trailer hitch. Measure the distance from the ground to the top of the ball. If it is within an inch of your requirement, you're good. If it's too high or too low, measure the difference. Return the one that you bought and buy the correct one.
