Recommended Trailer Hitch That Won't Interfere With Grounding Bolt on 2021 Ram ProMaster 2500
Question:
I'm looking for a hitch for my 2021 Ram Promaster 2500. I have seen that there can be issues with the grounding bolt when installing some of these. Do you have a hitch that will work with the grounding bolt on there? I do not want to modify it in any way.

Expert Reply:
In order to not interfere with the grounding bolt on your 2021 Ram ProMaster 2500 I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75882. The hitch will bolt on to the bottom of the frame where the grounding bolt is located, so it will not be in the way or require any modification to your grounding bolt.
If you plan on using the hitch for towing you will also need wiring. I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118618 to add a 4-way connection. If you need a 7-way, you can use the Tekonsha # 22112 instead. For a ball mount, I recommend the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989899 which comes with a 1-7/8" and 2" ball.
I have attached some installation and review videos for your reference.
