For your 2012 Ram 3500 cab and chassis that has a flat bed, I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1500. This gooseneck hitch is designed specifically for flatbed trucks and will provide a gross towing weight capacity of 30,000 pounds. The removable ball can be stored upside down in the hitch when you aren't towing for complete bed access. Some welding will be required during installation, which I recommend having done by a certified professional.

I have attached the installation details for you to review.
