The advantages of this approach include a custom fit without any tedious modifications to the vehicle, as well as optimum towing strength to complement your truck. This specific custom class 5 hitch is engineered to fit certain years of the Ram 3500 (see application information to verify compatibility with the year, make, model and style of your truck).
