Since your 2022 Ram ProMaster 3500 has the extended 159" wheelbase you'll need to go with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76050 instead of the Hitch # 75882 you're looking at.
Over the years we've found that the 75882 has issues with a driver side bolt cutout and the spare tire release on the extended wheelbase ProMasters which is why that exclusion exists.
The 76050 that does fit has a completely different mounting bracket design so the installation isn't a problem. We've actually been able to install this hitch on a 2021 model that I've linked for you to check out.
Most people install a hitch on a ProMaster to tow a trailer so if that's what you're looking to do I recommend picking up the T-One Wiring # 118618 for basic trailer lighting and then the Wiring Kit # ETBC7 and Redarc Brake Controller # RED44FR for a clean-looing installation if you need the ability to activate the brakes on your trailer.
To round out a towing kit I recommend checking out the Ball Mount Kit # EBMK4EL which comes with a ball mount, hitch ball to fit different coupler sizes, a hitch pin & clip, and storage bag to keep everything together.
Attached are some videos for you to check out.
