Hey Doug. The correct front mount hitch for your 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 is the Curt item # C31017. This hitch is specifically designed for the 2500 and 3500 models. It comes with all hardware necessary to complete the installation.
The Curt item # 31320, you referenced, only fits the 2005 Dodge Ram 1500.
What do you plan on using your new front hitch for?

Jared is correct. The mount I got is for a 1500. It works great for the light weight Snow Sport manual snow plow I use it for. I'm sure the 2500 has a different heavy duty frame and clearance.
