The CURT Class 4 Trailer Hitch, 2" Receiver, Select Dodge, Ram 1500 Trailer Hitch (Part #BKDK14374) Drilling is not required for installation. Typical installation time is 30-60 minutes. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Part number 14374 is designed for Dodge Ram 1500 models without an OEM hitch. If your vehicle already has a factory-installed hitch, this product is not compatible. Verify your vehicle does not have an existing OEM hitch before purchasing.
The hitch weight is 60 lbs.
The manual lists gross load capacity specifications for both weight-carrying and weight-distribution modes, but the specific trailer weight and tongue weight values are not filled in on the provided documentation. Contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8634 for the complete capacity ratings. Regardless of the hitch capacity, you must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity.
No. Part 14374 is designed only for Dodge Ram 1500 models without an OEM hitch.
No drilling is required. The hitch uses fishwire hardware to thread bolts through existing frame rail holes.
You will need: socket wrench, torque wrench, 6" socket extension, 3/4" socket, and 21mm socket. A torque wrench is essential because the installation requires precise torque specifications: 110 lb-ft for 1/2" hardware and 126 lb-ft for M14 hardware.
The kit includes: two .250 x 1.50 x 3.00" square hole spacers (CM-SP4), two .188 x 1.00 x 3.00" square hole spacers (CM-SP40), four 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 serrated flange nuts, four 1/2-13 UNC grade 8 carriage bolts (1-1/2" long), and two 1/2" x 30" fishwires.
Yes. Step 1 of the installation requires you to lower the spare tire for ease of installation. After the hitch is installed and torqued, you will raise the spare tire back into position in Step 8.
1. Lower the spare tire. 2. Remove the existing M14 bolts connecting the bumper beam to the frame rail on both driver and passenger sides; save these bolts. 3. Use the reverse fishwire technique to thread 1/2-13 x 1-1/2" carriage bolts and CM-SP40 spacers through the large round holes in the frame rails. 4. Use the fishwire technique to thread 1/2-13 x 1-1/2" carriage bolts and CM-SP4 spacers through the bumper beam ends and out the slot in front of the bumper beam. 5. Raise the hitch into position and loosely install 1/2-13 hex flange nuts on the carriage bolts. 6. Reinstall the M14 bolts removed in Step 2. 7. Torque 1/2" hardware to 110 lb-ft and M14 hardware to 126 lb-ft. 8. Raise the spare tire back into position.
The manual references both a standard fishwire technique and a reverse fishwire technique but does not provide detailed instructions for either method in the provided pages. The fishwire technique is used to thread carriage bolts and spacers through the bumper beam, while the reverse fishwire technique is used to thread bolts through the frame rail holes. For detailed guidance on these techniques, contact Curt Manufacturing technical support at 1-877-287-8634.
Yes. Step 2 requires you to remove the existing M14 bolts that connect the bumper beam to the frame rail on both the driver and passenger sides, and you must save these bolts. In Step 6, you reinstall these same bolts. Do not discard them.
Torque all 1/2" hardware (the carriage bolts and hex flange nuts) to 110 lb-ft.
Torque the M14 bolts (the factory bumper beam bolts) to 126 lb-ft.
Torque 1/2" hardware to 110 lb-ft and M14 hardware to 126 lb-ft.
No. In Step 5, you loosely install the 1/2-13 hex flange nuts on the carriage bolts. The fasteners are only fully tightened in Step 7, after the hitch is raised into position and the M14 bolts are reinstalled. This allows for proper alignment before final torquing.
You must not exceed your vehicle manufacturer's recommended towing capacity. The hitch itself has gross load capacity ratings for both weight-carrying and weight-distribution modes, but the specific values are not provided in the available documentation. Contact Curt Manufacturing at 1-877-287-8634 for the complete specifications, and always defer to your Dodge Ram 1500's manufacturer towing limits.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure that all fasteners are tight and that all structural components are sound. The manual does not specify a particular interval, so regular visual inspection before each towing use is recommended.
The manual lists estimated install times: 30 minutes for a professional installer and 60 minutes for a novice (DIY) installer.

Yes, a compatible bike rack, cargo carrier or other accessory with a 2" x 2" shank can generally be used. Make sure the accessory does not exceed the hitch’s tongue weight rating, the vehicle’s limits or the accessory manufacturer’s capacity. Account for the combined weight of the carrier and everything loaded onto it.
