We do have a couple of possible options for front mount hitches for your 2008 Dodge Ram 3500 Mega Cab. You can use # 65046. There is some minor drilling required, see instructions, but you will likely not have to do any trimming. I have included a link to the instructions to the right. I have also linked a video showing installation.

The other option is # C31017. It will NOT fit Laramie models though. The same drilling and possible trimming applies to this hitch as well since it installs in essentially an identical way to # 65046.

The AL-KO trailer hub part number 8700 that you have is a 3,500 lb trailer hub/drum with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern. Based on that the #AKHD-545-35-EZ-K is the correct fit and would work great.

The 7290 that you see is a casting number. It is found on AL-KO hubs that fit #99 spindles. I found that the bearings used are #28580 which would be the inner bearing and #25580 which would be the outer bearing. For the seal use #91030.
