Yes, the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C15409 will still hang down even if you do not have the factory hitch installed. It looks like all of the aftermarket hitches for the 2012 Ram 2500 have the same profile.

The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C15409 is confirmed to fit your 2012 Ram 2500. It is made in the USA and has a 17,000 lbs towing capacity.
