Expert Reply:
The factory trailer hitches on the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500s are welded on. You can add a Class V Curt hitch, # C15409 for a 2 inch receiver or # C15809 for a 2-1/2 inch receiver, and either will install beneath the factory hitch. I have linked videos showing example installations of these hitches for you.
Trailer hitch # C15704 will not work because it was designed for truck models that do not have the factory hitch.
