Wow, great installation video...well explained, good production quality and a lot of information provided in less than 10 minutes. All DIY videos should be like this!

Outstanding demonstration! I wasn’t sure I wanted to undertake this install but you demonstrated how straight forward of an installation it is, soooo, my son and I will be installing it on my 20 2500.. Than you...

JOEL!!!! Great video you have given a lot of people incentive to do this project themselves. Your videos give people confidence to tackle projects They probably thought they could not do on their own.

I bet Chad is so happy with the outcome. Looks great and so well put together. Nice professional job !

Love the out takes of what its really like

Just added this to my 2018 2500 RAM. Great video. I used jacks as a second set of hands and didn't need to remove muffler.

The best video to get the job done right

This was very neat to watch. You saved yourself a lot of money doing this your self.

Awww Grandpa Griffiths 💖💖 Absolutely learned the difference between hitches because of Joel! Doubt I'll ever use 1,however hopefully I'll have the knowledge of how to install 1!

I love your videos. You are doing an amazing job on your house. I hope you are able to get back to working on it soon. You are a man of many trades. I just love your family and admire you and Bonnie 💕 Shelli from Ohio .

Thanks for the quick video. Helped me decide this is the kit I want

Great demonstration ! Very detailed 👌🏼

Hey Joel, even this woman could understand your excellent instructions. 😊

Thank you for posting this video !!! Very informative I am going to do this when I get my 2018 with the ram boxes !!!

Excellent how-to video. Thanks

awesome tutorial bud, thanks for details and awesome explanation we loved your garage floor BTW , i like to watch videos next to my son and learn different tasks every day!!! we loved it and enjoyed!!!!!

GOOD JOB BRO GOING IS A PAIN BEYOND MEASURE

Bro I should have watched your video before installing

Thanks for the great video! But you didn't show how you got the spacer (black) ring in there. Guess I'll find out when I do the job. Haha!

What will change on this install if I already have a spray in bed liner?

I’m watching just to watch lol thankfully our flat bed truck had a hitch already. All this is confusing lol I let my man do manly things

😊👍

o hai Chad!

What if you have a liner?

Flexing for that thumbnail. 🤣

The dreaded 10mm socket

Does the ball come out in case you need to carry something flat, like plywood?

Good job Joel and Chad. You did a great job I learned a lot. Just wondering where Bonnie is?? Are you guys only posting 4 days then putting Joel’s channel up on Friday?? I am just wondering that’s all! See you Monday!

Where can I find the safety chain drill guide?

Interesting that this 4th gen model year range only has 4 primary bolts that bolt up to the truck. I have the same hitch getting ready to install on my 2022 2500 and it has 8 primary bolts, 4 on the sides and 4 up into the frame/crossmembers. I wonder what the differences are for weight ratings and such, but also makes me wonder if I can only utilize 4-6 bolts, as a couple of the 8 bolts are tough placement to get in and torqued to specs. I'm sure I will use all 8, but this has me wondering why one hitch model/truck year has 4 bolts and newer years have 8 bolts, what engineering change or design specs allowed this type of change.

Can the ball easily come out? Most of the time I won’t be hauling a gooseneck so I wouldn’t want the ball in

Yes you can actually flip the ball over so the bed is flat.

Is it the same installation for a 3500 ram dually? thnx

Honestly Joel I am curious as to why they chose this type of camper trailer? Is it safer to pull?

@TodaysTask

I think they are a bit safer to pull, but mostly you get more room for less length.

No, the frame under the bed changed. It it not to difficult to do though. I have done one of those as well, but no video.

How much would you charge for labor on this ? Or what’s an average cost

The 30,000 lb rating if for pulling not all 30,000 being set on the hitch.
