Helpful Expert Reply:

We have a front hitch that fits your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel with part # 65046 that can be used to carry a generator like yours but the EcoHitch front hitch you mentioned does not fit your truck. For a hitch mounted generator carrier we have the Torklift part # TLA7752 which was designed specifically for carrying generators.

I attached a review video for this carrier for you to check out as well for more info.

What is the reason that it won’t fit a 2006 ram 3500? The layout of the bolts and everything is the same on both generations

@Scott the two trucks are different generations. I would assume they test fit the front hitch on the older style and found it didn't work but it could be they never went that far back.
