Expert Reply:

The Curt Custom Base Plate Kit # C97BR is compatible with both Curt and Blue Ox tow bars, so since your 2009 Dodge Ram 3500 is a heavier truck I recommend going with the etrailer XHD Non-Binding Tow Bar # e67ZR.

This tow bar has a 10,500 lb weight rating and has adapters so it will fit with your Curt base plate kit directly, plus it comes with same-rated safety cables and an adjustable head to minimize the need for a high-low adapter.

Attached is a review video for you to reference.
