Hello,

My 2019 Laramie was ordered without tow hitch
I'm looking to add one

In dont think this this part would fit
as i already seem to have the Bar:

I assume that bar has to be removed and an actual hitch put in it's place. I'm sure the standard mopar or aftermarket hitch will fit in it's place, nothing special. Sad Ram spends the money to develop that bar without just using the hitch...

Try your local u-haul dealer, they're usually pretty reasonable

It looks like the bar you have supports putting a tow ball in the rear bumper. Like Bt10 said, the Mopar hitch should completely replace that bar.

Go look at a truck on the dealer lot or showroom with the receiver. My truck has the tubular bit that sits laterally so I think you just need to bolt on a receiver. Do you have the wiring hookups?

That should be the part. The existing cross bar gets removed.

Wow, so the whole thing gets swapped out. Might want to find a wrecked one at a salvage yard you can pull this from.

I’m bored. It looks like the genuine part is all one piece as mentioned above, at around $250 before shipping. The PN for the DT RAM is 82215222AD, but confirm with your VIN.


Or you can save by adding a third party one that bolts onto the tubular part you have. That seems to around $100.
