The Westin HDX Grille Guard # 57-3555 referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2018 Ram 2500. You will indeed get to retain the use of the factory tow hooks on your Ram with the grille guard installed. I confirmed this with my contact at Westin. The hooks sit inside where the mounting brackets for the grill guard will be so there won't be any interference.

I have attached the complete installation instructions that you can also take a look at.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
