Yes, the Curt 13361 (also designated RRH13361) is designed for 2002-current Dodge Ram pick-ups in 1500, 2500, and 3500 models, in both short bed and long bed configurations.
Yes. The hitch uses different mounting holes depending on bed length. Short bed models use one hole on each side, and long bed models use a different hole on each side. The installation diagram clearly marks which holes to use for each configuration.
Yes. The installation diagram shows that 1500 models use one hole, while 2500 and 3500 models use a different hole. Align the hitch holes to the correct frame holes for your specific model before installation.
The kit includes: 4× 1/2-13 UNC 2" grade 8 bolts (10-10288); 2× 1/2-13 UNC 2-1/4" hex head cap screws (10-10530); 6× 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts (20-00062); 2× 1/2" flat washers (30-00133); 2× 0.250" × 1.50" × 3.00" square hole spacers (CM-SP4); 2× 0.250" × 2.13" × 2.13" square hole spacers (CM-SP48); 4× 0.188" × 1.50" × 3.00" round hole spacers (CM-SP34); 2× 0.188" × 1.50" × 2.00" round hole spacers (CM-SP32); and 1× 1/2" fishwire (1_2 FISHWIRE).
No. The installation diagram explicitly states 'NO DRILLING REQUIRED'. The hitch aligns to existing holes in the Dodge Ram frame.
Yes, fishwiring is required. Fishwiring is the process of using a wire (the 1/2" fishwire is included) to guide and slide fasteners into position through access slots in the frame. Specifically, you will fishwire the forward-most carriage bolts into position through the frame access slots.
The manual does not specify whether bumper removal is necessary. However, the installation diagram shows that the rearward-most carriage bolts pass through the bumper beam, suggesting the bumper may need to be removed or repositioned for access. Consult the vehicle service manual or a professional installer for clarification.
1. Raise the hitch into position and align all holes in the hitch to holes in the frame (using the correct holes for your bed length and model). 2. Insert hex bolts through side plates into tow loops, using spacers as needed between hitch and tow loop. Install the outer spacer and flange nut on both sides. 3. Use the included fishwire to slide square hole spacers into place and fishwire the forward-most carriage bolts into position through frame access slots. Insert the rearward-most carriage bolts through the bumper beam and into position on each side. 4. Install remaining hex flange nuts and torque all 1/2" fasteners to 110 lb-ft.
Spacers are used as needed between the hitch and tow loop to ensure proper alignment. The installation diagram shows that square hole spacers are slid into place using the fishwire through the frame rails. Round hole spacers are used at various points as required for proper fit. The exact number and placement of spacers depends on your specific vehicle configuration.
All 1/2" fasteners must be torqued to 110 lb-ft. This applies to the hex bolts, hex head cap screws, and flange nuts used in the installation.
The manual specifies a gross load capacity of 6,000 lbs. trailer weight and 600 lbs. tongue weight when used as a weight-carrying hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
The manual specifies a gross load capacity of 10,000 lbs. trailer weight and 1,000 lbs. tongue weight when used as a weight-distribution hitch. However, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity, which may be lower.
Do not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. Even though the hitch has rated capacities (6,000 lbs. trailer weight as a weight-carrying hitch, or 10,000 lbs. as a weight-distribution hitch), your Dodge Ram may have a lower maximum towing capacity that must be respected.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify an exact interval, but regular inspection before towing is recommended.
