Congrats on the new truck Alan. There's quite a few options for tie downs that fit the 2026 Ram 2500 depending on what kind of hitch you have installed and how far your running boards extend. I have listed them below:

Factory Hitch - TorkLift Tie Downs - Front and Rear - item # TL73NR

Aftermarket Hitch - TorkLift Tie Downs - Front and Rear - item # TL82SV

TorkLift SuperHitch Magnum - TorkLift Tie Downs - Front and Rear - item # TL67XV

These TorkLift Tie Down kits all included front and rear tie downs, along with all hardware necessary to complete the installation. These kits are designed to fit the 2026 Ram 2500 with a 6-1/2' or 8' long beds with cab length only running boards.

What kind of hitch do you have on your Ram 2500 and how far do the running boards extend? Feel free to answer this and throw in any other questions you have, where it says Add Comment.

@AlanD Thanks for the information. The Front and Rear TorkLift Tie Downs item # TL59ZV are going to be the correct ones for a 2026 Ram 2500 with the factory hitch and wheel to wheel running boards.

I put Tork Lift tie downs on my 2024 Ram 2500 with the fancy running boards that extend a little past the cab and did interfere with the tie downs. I removed the end caps in my running boards to get the tie downs to fit. It’s a little tricky to get the caps off because in addition to the screws there is a rivet that has to be drilled out. It does leave the end of your running boards open. I used some black gorilla tape to close them while I am using my tie downs. One could put the caps back on over the winter when I’m not using them but we’ll see if it’s worth the effort. The tie downs are wonderful but take a little adapting. I also had to remove the handy rear bumper step to mount the tie downs. I’ll probably sell it or give it away because you won’t be able to have both in the same spot.
