Question:

Im looking for the best option for a front 2 receiver mount for my 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 4x4. Would love some advise. I want to move trailers in tight spaces and use winches and cargo carriers so I think I need at least a 500 lb. vertical weight.

Expert Reply:

The best option for a front-mounted trailer hitch that fits your 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 is absolutely the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65046.

The biggest reason being the capacity you mentioned, as this is the only front-mount hitch for your Ram that has a 500 lb vertical load rating, which means it has the capacity to carry heavier cargo than any other hitch with a carrier like the etrailer Cargo Carrier # e98874.

It is also going to be the easiest install with no type of fascia trimming needed; I have added a link below to the installation instructions for you to check out as well of the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65046.
