I have a 2013 Ram 1500, will this fit and what is the rated strength? I will be towing 7,000-10,000lbs, is this strong enough?

Expert Reply:
The Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock you mentioned, # e98880, is compatible with a Class III or IV hitch. The hitch lock is rated up to 10,000 lbs.
There is also an extra-long version, part # e98881, which is compatible with Class III, IV and V hitches and will handle up to 15K. I would recommend going with the higher rated version.
I have linked you to product demonstration videos for both locks mentioned above.
