Which B and W Trailer Hitch for 1984 Dodge Ram 250 Custom
Question:
Looking at purchasing the following for my 1984 Dodge 250 custom. ETBC7 installation kit, 5535 brake controller, 20127 controller plug and BWHDRH2512 Hitch. Are there correct? Not positive which bumper I have. How far does the hitch down to come out below the bumper? Any other recommendations on my purchase?

Expert Reply:
For your 1984 Dodge Ram 250 custom the correct B and W trailer hitch comes down to the style of bumper you have. The part # BWHDRH25122 fits a standard size bumper which looks like an average truck bumper and drops down 2-3/4 inches from truck frame to hitch crosstube. The # BWHDRH25198 instead fits if you have a deep drop bumper which looks taller than a normal one. It drops down 5-1/8 inches from where it attaches to the truck frame to the hitch crosstube. I'd be willing to be if you had one you'd know this. I attached a picture of what a deep drop bumper looks like though.
To install the Brake EVN # TK63VR you'll need the install harness # 20127 as well as the kit to convert your 4-way to a 7-way part # ETBC7.
