Hi, I have a 2020 RAM 1500 ecodeisel Limited and want to install a front hitch. Will this fit? 31090 Curt Front-Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver Item C87FR

asked by: Pumin B

Expert Reply:

Hello Pumin; the Curt # C87FR is not compatible with the EcoDiesel. What you can use instead is the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65081. This is the only front hitch confirmed to fit your 2020 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel.

What will you be using the hitch for?

@PuminB I have a 2024 Ram 1500. I have 2 air dams 1 in front you see and 1 behind that drops down at a certain speed , the hitch does not interfere with this one The front air dam has to be cut out for the hitch. You will find the hitch pin hole is behind the air dam I didn’t want to crawl under the truck to install the hitch pin so I cut slots in the air dam on each side to install the pin from the front. The cuts in the air dam do not cause it to whistle or flap during travel You can hardly see it. E trailer should have photos of my truck. D Miller

Might fit but will most likely interfere with your air dam. Not a huge deal. I just took mine off.

I installed the curt on 2021 ram with active air dam, it does need to be removed for the installation but I reinstalled after installing hitch, no issues. I will tell you if you want the cutout for the receiver to look professional it is a royal pain to climb under and snake your hand in to install and remove hitch pin. I use hitch to install a snow plow so I only attach when needed.
