I just spoke with Weaver distributing and they said that Putnam Hasn't updated to 08 on the XDR. The Guy did tell me he knows of couple customers that have used them on 07+'s, but there was some "Torching" Required to make them work.
They do have Cequent Titan model 45295 which is rated @ 18,000 (can only get a 15,000 draw bar for it though) here is a link from an online shop http://www.etrailer.com/pc-H~DT45295...eid=2008203632
This might be the route that I have to go. Says I have to remove the bumper for install. Yipppeee

I hear ya!!! Weaver gave me a price of $350, however my zip code gets free shipping from etrailer.com so I am better off to go with them. I am going to look underneath a buddies 2006 this afternoon and see what the hang up/torching would be with the xdr. I'll keep ya posted.

I went to Discount Hitch here in Houston and got the TITAN 18000lb hitch for the 2007.5-2008 Dodge 3500 installed for $395.00 Thanks Baywatch for finding the #, I just about gave up replacing the OEM.....Happy Towing......

Looks good!!! Mine showed up today via the UPS man as well. He was grunting and groaning as he pulled it off of his truck. It is a big MOFO
That is a good price!!!
Mine ended up being $389 for hitch, ball mount, Ball, and Reducer sleeve. I got a buddy that is going to have a couple of his employees install it for me on Friday. I'm sure that will cost me at least a good steak dinner with some drinks LOL..
I was about ready to give up on the search as well. I actually just got an Email from Curt hitches today stating that they have a new 15,000 hitch that will work on the dodge as well, but I am glad I got the big boy...
Happy towing to you as well!!!
