Expert Reply:
When it comes to installing a trailer hitch on your 2018 Ram 2500 8 Foot Bed With Factory Hitch The TorkLift SuperHitch Original Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class V - 2 inch # TLD1109 is confirmed to fit your vehicle and you will not have to remove the rear folding step.
The trailer hitch has a bolt-on installation with no welding required. It has a black powder coat finish which resists corrosion. The trailer hitch has a maximum gross trailer weight up to 17,000 pounds and has a maximum tongue weight up to 1,700 pounds. I would recommend checking your vehicle's manual to find out the proper towing capacity for your truck.
I also recommend getting The InfiniteRule Hitch Lock for 2 inch Hitches - 2-5/8 inch Span - Stainless Steel # 34061071-D. This heavy-duty stainless steel hitch lock provides superior security when locking a ball mount or accessory to your 2 inch hitch. It has a flush design which helps to deter theft.
