Very easy installation. Ram 1500 Classic Warlock Edition 2019

Easy! It took me less than 1/2 hour to install. They went really really fast. It may have taken longer to lower the spare tire to make room. The upper bumper cover screw snapped back perfectly. Zero problems with wire or bolt holes. This is my fourth Tyger product (arm, stone rail, cover, hitch) and I am completely satisfied with all of their products. The 12mm hex and 21mm socket are tools. I don't have a 12mm hex so I used a 7/16 hex. worked fine A++

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Almost OK

Do-it-yourself tow liner and winches

I wear skinny jeans and listen to punk rock on the weekends. I also have a 2019 Dodge Ram Warlock Classic that needed to be attached. I watched the video and just installed this hitch. Tip 1: Make sure the guide wire is securely attached to the bolt when you pull it out, otherwise it may come loose and get stuck. If this happens, take a garden hose and run it from end to end to flush out the screw. That happened to me. 15 minutes installation if all goes well.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Complete garbage! Best of receivers

This receiver is dangerous. I towed a caravan that fits nicely in this receiver, with a hitch to distribute the weight. My trailer is 500 pounds and the trailer weight is 5000 pounds. The second time I towed my trailer, it pulled the bolt that goes through the bumper out of the receiver about 1/2 inch. Now I have to cut the screw and hopefully not damage my bumper in the process. I installed it according to the instructions. In the past I was a state-certified car mechanic with a car testโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Faulty

Very difficult to install

First, I'm a good mechanic. I do all the oil changes myself, change shock absorbers and help with changing the clutch. My dad who helped me and built/restored his cars is a better mechanic than me. We had a terrible time installing this kit, although once installed it seems very solid. 1.Installation. The black powder coat itself needs to be applied thickly because if you try to thread the backplate screws through the rear tube frame, the extra metal on the screws will prevent a direct installโ€ฆ

Pros
  • External accessories
Cons
  • Nothing here

Ok but installation can be terrible, read below to learn from my mistakes.

This hitch works well and costs very well. Installation can be very simple... or an ordeal that takes hours and hours. I think my installation took 4 hours, 3 hours and 45 minutes to make every possible mistake and learn how to do it and 15 to do everything. The instruction manual is very basic but assumes you know what you are doing. I've worked a lot on cars so I'm not totally stupid, but I've never worked with fishing wire so I had to learn a bit. Here's what I learned: 1. When attachingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Receiver
Cons
  • Some little things

Easy installation but be careful - be careful with fishing wire.

Installation is simple and relatively easy but when I pulled my bolts through the cross member the wire broke and now the bolt and base plate are stuck in the cross member and I am unable to complete the installation. It annoys me enough that I could deal with the short cord complaints and bypass it, but when I can't get that bolt out I get angry. ***Update 7/7*** I'm so glad I was able to tweak something to get it off the cross and I hope this post helps someone else.

2018 RAM 1500 SLT in Exterior Accessories

I was disappointed that Dodge Ram didn't supply this part from the factory. Until I discovered this part, I didn't even realize I had a hitch until I took a closer look. However, this should not diminish the value of this product. Haven't pulled anything with it yet, but the product seems solid enough to live up to its specs. I recently installed this product on my RAM 1500, 2018 SLT. The product fitted well and took about 45 minutes to install. Contrary to other reviews, I was able to put theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Automotive

  • Not everything fits
