Well I got my brother to help me straighten the bolt after we ate Easter dinner so now I just need to get Dodge to order me a bolt cover and I'll be all good! Thanks again for the part number and I'll let you know if I have any trouble getting them to order it. Happy Easter!!!

Well I called up to my dealer and told him I did not get a cap for the hitch he went and pulled one out of the mopar hitch and told me to stop by and pick it up.

Post you results. I have been coming to this post off and on all day.

Parts guy told me he had one for me too. Went to get it and he handed me the flat piece of plastic I already had.
That is when I got him to go look at my truck.

I hope you got the right part.

Damn I'm HAPPY!!! I would never think that a little piece of plastic could have pissed me off or made me so happy. He did pull one right out of the Mopar hitch and gave it to me for free!!! It's the raised cap just like the one you posted a pic of on your bumper. Just made my day!

Funny, good! I felt the same way.

Took me a month to get to that happy day. About gave up.

Great Info...thanks. I just ordered mine, although they wanted almost $10 + tax. Ugh. I guess it's worth it though. Looks ridiculous without it and my bolt is silver (Curt Hitch). I have it mounted without the bolt now with the stock cover and figured I'd just put in the bolt when I needed to tow something (which is rare).

i just found you can get the hitch already welded to the bar for $155 at berry dodge in texas talk to brian in parts for the extra $50-60 dollars i would rather have the factory welded over the bolted plus i dont like the look of the bolt in the center of the bumper.i'm glad i didnt pay the $355 dodge wanted at the time i ordered since i can get it for 155 from this dealer

I thought the stock ones were welded to the rear bumper some sort of way.

the factory ones are welded if they were ordered with the truck,if you go to the dealer to buy one they sell you the hitch to bolt on and my dealer said that was the only one they sell until i talked to brian at berry dodge and he told me about the welded one
