We opted for the dinette vs the table and chairs so maybe that’s why I didn’t find it. I’ll have to look closer, maybe it’s in the dinette wall next to the theater seat. Thanks!

Yep, I have the same B&W non-slider hitch set-up to 2” inches behind the axle. Not sure what the clearances are on a Ram but I have had zero issues backing and turning with this setup.
