We do have the installation instructions available for the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver, # C15704. They can be found on the product page, next to a little picture of a wrench. But I have also included a link to the instructions below.

Just a few additional tips I can offer. Installation of this hitch requires temporary removal of the bumper during installation. It will fit with a full sized spare tire stowed under vehicle, as long as it is the factory spare. If your 2007 Dodge Ram 3500 has a factory trailer hitch, it will need to be removed to install the part # C15704. And with this hitch installed, the step bumper can no longer be used as a towing point.

The recommended ball mount for this hitch is # C45456 for use with ball # A-90 (2 inch diameter), # 19286 or # 63836 (both 2-5/16 inch diameter). If you have accessories that require a 2 inch receiver, you can use the Curt Reducer Sleeve 2-1/2 inches to 2 inches, # C45405. To deter theft of your hitch mounted accessories, I recommend a hitch lock like # C23519.
