The Curt hitch part # C15800 is the highest capacity hitch we offer for your 2018 Ram 5500 cab and chassis. The hitch has a 20,000 lb trailer capacity and a 2,700 lb tongue weight capacity. The hitch is also made in the USA and has a 2-1/2 inch hitch opening which is very common for heavy duty ball mounts like what you'd need.
For and adjustable ball mount with two hitch ball sizes we have the B&W Tow and Stow part # BWTS30040B which has a 21,000 lb towing capacity.
