Expert Reply:
For your 2001 Dodge Ram 2500, I recommend the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 31604. This hitch requires no drilling, but does require you to either trim or remove the air dam under your front bumper. If you trim the air dam, a 2x2 inch piece will need to be removed.
You will lose approximately an inch of ground clearance from where your air dam measured.
