Parts Needed to Tow Destination Trailer with 2021 Ram 3500 and TorkLift Everest WDH
Question:
Pulling a 42 foot destination trailer with my 2021 ram 3500 dually long bed diesel. 2000 lbs tongue weight, 15,000 total trailer weight. I am ordering the TorkLift SuperHitch Everest Weight Distribution System - 30,000 lbs GTW, 3,000 lbs but am lost as to what I need in addition. Will I need a new receiver hitch to utilize TLM9010 or TLM9011? Can you give me a complete list of part numbers needed for this desired setup?

Yes. In order to bumper tow a trailer of that size and use a TorkLift Everest system like the # TLWD1000 you'll need to remove the factory hitch and install a dual receiver like the TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V - 2-1/2" and 2" # TLD1111-30. This dual hitch receiver provides the support needed to tow a trailer with that tongue weight and GVWR.
In addition to the new hitch receiver for your vehicle, the SuperHitch Magnum does not come with a hitch ball or weight distribution shank. For the shank you'll want to use either the # TLM9010 which can give you up to 12-1/2" of drop, or you could use the # TLM9011 if you need up to 17-1/2" of drop to keep the trailer level. You'll also need a hitch ball with a 1-1/4" shank diameter, so I recommend using the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball - 1-1/4" Diameter x 2-5/8" Long Shank - Raw Finish - 30,000 lbs # C40085.
These parts, when used together, will give you everything you need to tow your destination trailer.
