Question:
I am looking for the highest towing capability I can get but I do not want stacked recievers. I like this reciever because it gives me the 30,000lb tow rating with the weight distribution bars. My question is do you know if this one or any other one will fit and give me 20,000 or better tow capacity without double stacking recievers?

The highest capacity trailer hitch for your 2018 Ram 2500 we offer that will give you only a single hitch tube would be the Draw Tite part # DT45509 which has a towing capacity of 18,000 lbs. This requires removing the factory hitch. The Torklift part # TLD1109-30 that you referenced does have a much higher capacity at 20,000 lbs but it installs below the factory hitch and gives you the stacked, double hitch opening. It's only option for this high of a capacity.
