If your 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 has the harness with the round connector like the one in the attached photo, you may only need to replace the 7-way connector that is mounted on the bumper of your truck. I would recommend the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector, part # HM40940. This would replace just the 7-way mounted on your bumper, and comes with the mounting screws.

If you are wishing to replace the entire harness and the 7-way connector, the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector, part # HM42190, would be what you need. The harness plugs directly into your truck wiring without splicing or cutting, and the included 7-way connector plugs into the harness. This harness comes with the mounting screws.
