For the 2009 Dodge Ram 2500, you will need to use a modified version of the universal installation kit. The 2009 Ram requires a couple of additional brackets. The good news is this makes it a semi-custom kit that will take less time to install than the universal kit. The part you need is the Reese Semi-Custom Base Rail and Installation Kit, # RP30035-186. I have included a link to the installation details for you.

If you want to go with a completely custom kit, use # RP50140-58. The benefit of this kit is that it has an estimated 2.5 hour installation time which is 1 hour quicker than the semi-custom kit. I have included a link to the installation details for this kit as well.
