Hey guys, Ive been reading on here a little already but have a question. My Dodge dealer here quoted me $238 for the Mopar hitch and $459.95 to install. (outrages)
An aftermarket store sells a hitch for it for $150 ( rated 5k lbs)& $200 install. I told them about the need to cut the rear bumper fascia and they said
'this one mounts beneath the bumper".
The RT Owners manual stats that unless the hitch comes factory installed the towing capacity is reduced to 3500lbs.
Question; with the hitch mounted below the rear fascia, will the payload and towing be reduced even further? I wont be towing unless my Ram breaks down so its only for backup in emergency situations.
Thanks for your responses.
