Yes, the max drop of the Curt Short Arm part #C17333 is only 1/2 inch due to the head design. For a shank that you could use with this system that would allow a 3 inch drop you would want the Curt #17120 which can do a drop of up to 5 inches. There…

Your best option is going to be Draw-Tite hitch #DT45509. This hitch requires removal of the factory hitch on your 2016 Ram 3500. It is rated for 2,000 pounds tongue weight and 18,000 pounds gross trailer weight. When used with weight distribution it…

We have a great solution but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part #C15845 is not a confirmed fit for your 2014 Ram 3500. Instead the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part #C15803 is the one to go with. It share the exact same specifications as the one you…

I can not speak for any manufacturers ratings either on your truck or on your OEM hitch. That being said you would need to talk to someone at the Chrysler/Dodge dealer to obtain the actual ratings on your hitch and truck. You should be able to find…

All of our trailer hitches that fit your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 with a factory hitch, will sit below the factory hitch. Since you are removing your factory hitch, the Curt hitch I recommend is #14361 as it's 6-1/2 inches from the top of the receiver…
