Solution for Needing Higher Capacity Hitch Extension for 2021 Ram 3500

Question:

I have a 2021 Ram 3500 Crew Cab 8ft bed DRW and a Truck Camper that i us the CURT 36 extension. The current trailers I pull stay at or under the 450 lb tongue weight restriction of the extension. I am investigating purchasing a 8 x 24 ft car trailer with a 9950 GVW. In researching, it seems that the TorkLift setup is about the only thing out there to support that weight on that long of an extension. Can you verify and list the required parts? Also, since i have the factory hitch, how much of a pain is the TorkLift hitch install.

When it comes to higher towing capacities and hitch extensions the Torklift extensions are the only way to go like with the part # TLE1536. So to use this with your 2021 Ram 3500 you would need the Torklift hitch part # TLD1111-30 which fits underneath the factory hitch. The install really isn't too bad actually.
