The longest trailer hitch extender we offer is the TorkLift SuperTruss Hitch Extension part # TLE1560 which measures 60". However, the SuperTruss will require you to use a SuperHitch like part # TLC1204. The longest trailer hitch extender we offer for a 2" trailer hitch that does not require the SuperHitch is indeed 18" like part # C45796. Please note that a hitch extender minus the SuperTruss will reduce your tongue weight capacity by 50%.

I have attached a list of all the 2" trailer hitch extenders we offer for you.

The current Torklift tie down part #TLD3101 that you have installed on your 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 only fits if you have the factory hitch. If you go with the SuperHitch part #TLD1100 you would need to change your rear tie down to the part #TLR3503.
