I'm guess from the pic, but it look like an inch with the plate thickness and carriage bolt heads?
And just for clarity, have you cut a hole in your bed mat that goes around the hitch plate?
If your mat sits at the same level of the bolt head tops, you have to account for the mat compressing. So might be an issue, depending on the mat density. I think I'd want a minimum of a 1/2 to 3/4" above the highest part sticking out of the hitch. So either another mat on top or under. Or a plywood sheet under. Both/either of them with a hole cut out for the hitch.
