Expert Reply:
The highest capacity tow bar setup we offer for a 2017 Ram 1500 would be the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar part # e94ZR rated at 10,500 lbs. It will require the etrailer Classic Base Plate Kit part # e98945. The only other things you'll need to complete this setup is lighting and a braking system. I recommend the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Braking System part # BLU37TR (Requires 12 Volt Outlet Kit part # RM-9332) and Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit part # RM-154.
