The best way to determine which ball mount is right for your 2005 Chrysler 300c and your trailer is to take a few simple measurements.
Since you don't have the hitch we can see by the video of the Curt # 13465, I've attached, that the hitch receiver is going to be 10-1/4 inches from the ground. You will then want to take a similar measurement from the bottom of the coupler to the ground. Then compute the difference.

Hey Ken,
Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13236 is listed as a fit for all models of the 2019 Chrysler 300 so it would be a fit. If you plan on towing a trailer or adding lights to a bike rack or cargo carrier then you'll also want to pick up the Tekonsha # 118658 to transfer over your light signals. view full answer...
I went out and took the measurement on both hitches for you. The Draw-Tite, part # 76145, measures about 9 inches from the top of the wings where the hitch mounts to the vehicle's frame to the bottom of the collar around the receiver opening. The Curt, part # C13093, sits a lttle lower, the same measurement is about 10 inches.
I've attached pictures, as well as an install video for each hitch. view full answer...
For a 3-bike platform rack the Kuat Transfer part # KU24FR would be a great option. We had the chance to test fit this rack on a similar 2015 Chrysler 300 and it fit and worked well. Check out the review video I attached that shows this. Platform bike racks are normally really heavy, especially ones that carry over 2 bikes like this one. The Transfer is relatively light all things considered at 51 lbs. Most similar racks are near 100 lbs.

You are going to have to install a wiring harness with a converter box to be able to install a 4-way on your 2008 Chrysler 300. You are correct, because the taillight circuits of your vehicle are separate and the taillights on most trailers are combined a converter box is required.
