Have no fear! The DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate Lowering System # DZ43301 is the correct kit for your 2019 Ram 1500 Classic and the new bottom plate that was included is supposed to be there. DeeZee recently added this component in place of the single ball mount not because of a difference in the truck but simply to allow for a sturdier connection. The new bottom plate is designed to create a more durable overall system with a longer lifespan.

I have attached an image of the updated installation instructions that you can also use for reference.

The ideal height will actually have to do with how tall the coupler of the trailer is from the ground. The Draw-Tite #76020 will sit at 13 1/2 inches from the ground to the top of the hitch when installed on a 2016 Mazda CX-9. From what I could find…
