I installed my SuperHitch today on my new RAM 3500 which I had removed from my 2013 RAM 3500.
Before I started the install, I went to the Torklift website to refresh my understanding of the installation procedure. I encountered the login page and said "what the heck" and just went out to the shop and started the install.
I couldn't find the wire to fish the bolts through the frame so I made my own out of some stainless steel welding wire. The "fun" part was on Wednesday when I "unfished" (removed) the bolts from the 2013 frame. Once again, I built my fishing line from stainless steel welding wire with a hook on the end and was able to recover all the bolts and thick square washers.
When I was wrapping up the install, I saw two extra bolts. I found where they were needed - it would have been helpful to have installed them second in order.
All-in-all everything went real smooth and my new truck has the tie down, SuperHitch, and StableLoads installed.
