CURT parts for the 2021 Ram 1500

Your 2021 Ram 1500 has two CURT hitches to choose from, and the right one comes down to what you're pulling and what you'll hang off the receiver. CURT 15005 is a Class 5 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 15,000 lb gross trailer weight and 1,700 lb tongue weight, $488.70 CAD.

CURT 13419 is a Class 3 hitch with a 2-inch receiver, rated to 6,000 lb gross trailer weight and 600 lb tongue weight, $167.73 CAD. Both ship free anywhere in Canada.

There's a front receiver too. CURT 31090 mounts behind the front bumper of the 2021 Ram 1500, rated to 5,000 lb with 500 lb tongue weight, $362.21 CAD.

Trailer lights are a plug-in job on this one. CURT 56070010 is the four-flat plug harness for the 2021 Ram 1500, $362.21 CAD, and it clicks into the factory connector so you're not splicing wires behind the bumper.

What you need to tow with a 2021 Ram 1500

A bike rack only needs the hitch. A trailer needs all three, and every piece ships free anywhere in Canada.

  1. CURT 15005 hitch, $488.70 CAD. The receiver that bolts to the 1500.
  2. CURT 56070010 wiring harness, $722.10 CAD. Plugs in, no splicing; the trailer lights follow the 1500's.
  3. CURT 45836 ball mount, $41.70 CAD. Ball mount with the ball already on it, ready to hook a trailer. Bigger coupler? CURT 45041 carries a 2-5/16-inch ball, $62.42 CAD.

2021 Ram 1500 hitch questions

Which trailer hitch fits a 2021 Ram 1500?

CURT 15005 (Class 5, 2-inch receiver, 15,000 lb) and CURT 13419 (Class 3, 2-inch receiver, 6,000 lb) both fit. Pick the class that covers your trailer with room to spare, then check the fit table on the product page for your build.

How much can a 2021 Ram 1500 tow with this hitch?

The hitch is rated to 15,000 lb gross trailer weight and 1,700 lb tongue weight, or 17,000 lb with a weight-distribution hitch. Your 1500 has its own tow rating in the owner's manual, and the lower number is your limit. A loaded bike rack counts against tongue weight too.

Do I need a wiring harness for the 2021 Ram 1500?

If a trailer is going on, yes. Brake and turn signals have to work, and CURT 56070010 plugs into the factory connector so the trailer lights follow the 1500's. Order it with the hitch and it's one install.
