Question:

Hi, I have a 2016 Ram 1500 Ecodiesel, 4wd, Tradesman. What front hitch would you recommend for me? I only need it to carry a bike rack for two bikes. Also, would I need to have the molding under the bumper trimmed away? Do you have any photos of what this would look like with the hitch attached? Thanks,

Expert Reply:

For your 2016 Ram 1500 Ecodiesel Tradesman the Draw Tite front hitch part # 65062 is a confirmed fit and would work great. I attached a picture of the area of the front fascia (if present) would need to get trimmed. If you don't have that type of air dam it would not need to be trimmed.

You could use a bike rack like the Hollywood Racks # HR200Z in this hitch when needed as well.
