Question:
Will this hitch fit a 2015 Ram 5500 cab and chassis, crew cab 60inch CA, 173inch WB, 4wd? I recently ordered the above truck, so I dont have any actual measurements. The lastest year that this part number will fit, according to the Torklift website is 2012.. I am not certain of changes, if any, to the rear of the frame after 2012.. Thanks for your time.

I spoke with my contact at Torklift and he confirmed that TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum Trailer Hitch Receiver # TLD1103-30 is a fit for your 2015 Ram 5500 cab and chassis.
This hitch comes with both a 2-1/2" receiver and 2" receiver on the same hitch so you can tow a trailer and carry a bike rack simultaneously. You will be able to haul up to 30,000 lbs if you also use TorkLift SuperHitch Everest Weight Distribution System, # TLWD1000. I have included a product demonstration video of this WD system for you to check out. If you go with the WD system you will want a 2-5/16" hitch ball, like # C40085, and an adjustable shank like # TLM9011.
