The Curt Class V Receiver Hitch # C15800 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2007 Dodge Ram Cab and Chassis with a 34 inch wide frame.

This is a heavy duty, Class V hitch that will provide a 2-1/2 inch receiver opening and a 20,000 pound towing capacity. I have attached the installation details for you to check out. Keep in mind that some drilling will be required.

If you do not yet have a trailer connector installed at the rear of your truck, I recommend using the Vehicle Wiring Harness Kit # C59236. This hardwire kit will allow you to install a 4-Pole connector to hook up with your trailer and power its signal lights. I have included the installation manual that you can take a look at.

You will also need a ball mount to tow your trailer. I have attached an article that explains how to determine the correct size in order to tow the trailer level, as well as a link that will take you to our available selection of ball mounts for 2-1/2 inch hitches.
