Question:
Wondering if this will replace the existing oem hitch that came on my 02 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT. Mine is currently held on by 4 bolts.

Expert Reply:
Yes, if the build date on your 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT was before 11/2002 (see door jamb sticker) then the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13326 will replace the factory trailer hitch which is held in with four bolts. I confirmed this with Curt for you. If you have a build date after 11/2002 then you will need to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13361 instead as you technically have a 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 SLT style undercarriage.
The above two options both come with the hardware and install instructions that you will need and they also both have a lifetime warranty.

Dear John, Appreciate your time. I have a 03 ram 1500 with the factory style undercarriage but it was gauled together. I decided to grind the hitch part of the assembly off, which I did successfully and have it grinded down smooth. Will the Curt 13326 fit this? Aforementioned, the tube portion is still there and in excellent shape but could not remove it
