Question:
I have a 2016 Dodge diesel, 4X4 2500. I have the Wesin Off Road Light Mounting Bar. Code 37-02595. Can I also use the Draw Tite Front Hitch Code 65063?

In order to use a front mount trailer hitch on your 2016 Ram 2500 with the Westin Off-Road Light Mounting Bar 37-02595 you will need the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C31015, not the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65063.
The reason for this is that the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver mounts in the same location as the Westin Off-Road Light Mounting Bar which is why they will not work together. The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver mounts on the outside of the frame rails so there should be no interference issues with the Westin Off-Road Light Mounting Bar.
Please keep in mind that these two products have not been tested together however, everything on my end says they will work. You can even take a look at the install video I have attached for you and compare that to the Westin Off-Road Light Mounting Bar you have now.
