Front Hitch Recommendation for 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 that Does Not Require Trimming

Question

Question:

I have a 2007 Dodge Ram, 2500 4x4 with the black plastic air dam facia installed below the bumper. I see mixed reports about whether trimming of that facia is required for this bumper. Some reviews say no trimming needed, but a lot of the expert responses say trimming MAY be required. Can you clarify for my specific application? Thanks!

The Draw Tite front hitch part # 65046 will fit your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 and will not require you to trim the air damn.

We installed this on a 2007 just like yours, see link, and it did not require trimming.
