If you are using the GearSpace 34 Enclosed Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitch - Slide Out - 34 cu ft - 300 lbs - Dark Gray, part # HGK819, at its maximum length, you will need to add a hitch extender to your 2022 Ram 3500 in order to provide the necessary clearance to open the rear doors of your 2022 Ram 3500.

Your truck has a maximum tongue weight between 1,349 lbs and 1,497 lbs. Introducing the hitch extender will reduce this tongue weight by 50%. I recommend the Gen-Y Hitch Extender For 2" Hitches, part # GY89SR. This hitch extender has a maximum weight limit of 500 lbs and is 14". You will have plenty of room to open the doors of your 2022 Ram 3500 with this addition.

I have included a product description below.
