Helpful Expert Reply:
The three Curt trailer hitches that you referenced, parts # C15300, # C15318 and # C15319, all are 2-inch Class V hitches that share common weight ratings and all fit your 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 Longbed with a factory standard or step bumper. All three can be seen on the link provided for you.
The difference between them is that the # C15300 fits some Ford F-Series and Bronco trucks in addition to fitting your 1998 Dodge Ram. This hitch will not fit trucks with a roll pan bumper and installation of this hitch will take slightly longer since it is designed for multiple trucks. It can also be necessary to use a spare tire re-positioner to retain the spare tire under the vehicle with this hitch in place.
Both # C15318 and # C15319 will take slightly less install time since they are Dodge-specific.
