Ground Clearance - 11" minimum recommended by B&W
5
I bought this hitch for my 2022 F250 Fx4 Superduty.  A key consideration as to which hitch (4-1/2" or 7" adjustable drop) to buy is the amount of drop required for your specific truck and trailer combination.  B&W does a great job of telling you how to calculate the amount of drop needed for your specific trailer, however another aspect that needs to be considered is ground clearance of the hitch.
B&W recommends a minimum of 11" ground clearance, however B&W does not provide sufficient dimensions of its hitches to determine ground clearance.  I contacted B&W customer service 1-800-248-6564 and they provided the following information for their 3" hitches: "The 4.5" drop measures 8.3" long. The 7.5" drop measures 11.1" long. When you tow in the lowest position with both pins installed in the drop the ball can be approximately 2" longer."
The distance from the inside top tube of my truck hitch receiver to the ground is 22", so  I bought the 4-1/2" drop as the 7" drop would be too long and not provide sufficient ground clearance.  
After installing the hitch, I measured 11-1/4" ground clearance with the hitch in its lowest position and the 2" ball pointed up (2-5/16" ball pointed down).  Stowing the hitch, I rotated the balls, so that the 1-7/8" is pointed downward.  In the highest stowed position, I measured 13-3/4" ground clearance.

Pull your boat to the lake, mower to the shop, or tractor to the job site—all with the same ball mount. The Tow & Stow’s adjustable height and multiple ball sizes mean it can fit most any trailer. Easily stow it under the vehicle when you’re done towing, so you never have to knock your shin or shut the garage door on a hitch again.
