  • Can the Spring Bars On a Reese Pro 49902 Weight Distribution System Be Upgraded
  • In general, yes, you can replace the spring bars on a weight distribution system. That said, the Reese Pro 49902 is not one we offer replacements for as they have been discontinued by the manufacturer. Furthermore, you cannot use spring bars from a different manufacturer. Therefore, the best option would be to upgrade to a new system for which I recommend the Curt Weight Distribution Kit part # C17051.

  • Recommended Front Mount Receiver for Carrying Small Motorcycle on 2019 Ram 2500
  • I recommend the Curt # C31089 front mounted receiver which is a confirmed fit for your 2019 Ram 2500. The hitch has a 500 lb vertical load capacity, which means that the bike plus the carrier you're planning on using can't have a combined weight greater than 500 lbs. if you don't have a carrier, I'd recommend the Ultra-Fab # UF48-979033 which can accommodate bikes weighing up to 500 lbs with tires up to 5 inches in width. The rack also includes a loading ramp, which stows on the carrier...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch Using Underbed Mounting Rails for 2014 Ram 2500
  • B and W has a solution that would allow you to install a fifth wheel hitch with an underbed mounting system. Their Companion # BWRVK3500-5W fifth wheel hitch would install into their Turnover Ball Gooseneck, part # BWGNRK1384-5W. When the fifth wheel hitch is removed, you would have full, unobstructed use of your truck bed. You would also have the advantage of being able to tow a gooseneck trailer if the need should arise. This will only be a solution if your truck has coil springs in...

  • Bully Dog Tuner vs. Others for Use in 2010 Ram 2500 With 5.7L V8 Hemi Gasoline Engine
  • The link provided will take you to our page for all tuner/monitors that are compatible with your truck. The options vary in terms of their potential power/torque gains and also in their 50-state compatibility; some of the tuners shown are not legal for use in California. Note the particular Bully Dog tuner you referenced, the Triple Dog GT BY40410NI, is intended for Nissan/Infiniti vehicles and will not work for your 2010 Ram 2500 with 5.7L Hemi engine. The tuner you can install is the...

  • Mud Flap Recommendation for 2016 Ram 2500 with Factory Running Boards
  • You will need to measure the clearance between the nerf bar of your 2016 Ram 2500 and the edge of the front wheel well. If that distance is greater than 2 inches the # WT110026 that you reference will fit your truck that has factory fender flares. For a rear pair you would need the part # WT120026 as well.

  • The best 5th wheel hitch we have for a 2018 Ram 2500 with the 6-1/2' bed an factory prep package is the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3670. The B&W Companion is considered to be one of the best in-bed hitches on the market. The 20,000 lb capacity and dual locking jaws make it a favorite among consumers.

  • Can Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch be Used with Reese Revolution Pin Box
  • Slider hitches can be used with Reese Revolution pin boxes but you just have to keep the hitch slid forward all the time when towing the trailer with the Revolution. For example the Reese slider hitch part # RP30075 that you mentioned would work great with a Revolution if it was slid forward all the time.

  • Best Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2020 Ram 2500 Long Bed with OEM Rail Kit
  • For a fifth wheel hitch that fits the OEM rail kit of your 2020 Ram 2500 long bed the best option is the B and W Companion hitch part # BWRVK3600 which has a 25k capacity. This is more than you are wanting but this hitch has the best jaw design which provides a smoother and quiet ride quality, the best build quality, and is easiest to install and remove from truck since it easier breaks down into smaller sections. I attached a review video for this hitch for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box Adapter for Short Bed Truck
  • In order to tow a 5th wheel trailer with a short bed truck using the gooseneck hitch you'll need some sort of adapter in order to extend the connection point away from the cab which will allow for greater turning clearance. The best options we have for this are fifth wheel to gooseneck pin box adapters, the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter part # CAB-C5GX1216 for cushioned or the Ranch Hitch Universal 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Coupler Adapter part # AM3139 for standard....

  • Which Air Lift LoadLifter Air Bag Kit for 2022 Ram 2500 Towing Heavy Camper
  • Since you'll be on the higher end of your 2022 Ram 2500's towing capacity I would recommend the higher rated 7,500 lb Air Lift kit part # AL57589 as you'll want that extra capacity to help support the rear suspension when towing. For a heavy duty compressor setup that you can control with your phone the Air Lift WirelessAIR kit part # AL74000EZ would be a great option.

  • Recommended Auto Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch and Air Bags for a 2019 Ram 2500
  • The only sliding 5th wheel hitch we offer which does not require getting in and out of the truck bed for tight turns is the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # DM8550035 which has a 21,000 lb rating and can be used on a 2019 Ram 2500 with Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails part # DM8552025-71. In regards to hitch height settings, you can use the lowest option if needed but keep in mind this is not really a preference sort of thing so much so that it is...

  • Whats Best Way to Lock Roof Cargo Bag to Cargo Basket
  • Best option would be to wrap an adjustable cable lock around the bag and basket with an adjustable cable lock like the part # 8419DPF which would make it more difficult to steal the contents of the bag. Keep in mind that the material of the bag could be cut relatively easily and there's no way to prevent that. A locking roof cargo box like the Thule Force XT part # TH6357B would be the way to go for the best theft protection.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2016 Ram 2500 To Use Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier
  • In order to use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier part # TH898 on a 2016 Ram 2500 I recommend using the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbar System which is composed of part # TH711520, part # TH710501, and part # TH145106. This will be a perfect pairing for the Hullavator and provide a really nice, sleek bar design. This will be all that is needed.

  • Platform Bike Rack Fit for Draw-Tite 65063 Front Mount Receiver-2017 Ram 2500
  • Because the shank doesn't have a rise, the Swagman XC, part # S64663 would actually really be a good choice for use in a front receiver on your 2017 Ram 2500. The Draw-Tite # 65063 is a fit for your truck, and would work very well with the Swagman XC # S64663 bike rack. I've linked you to a product demonstration video for the bike rack, as well as to an installation video for the front mounted receiver.

  • Solution for Towing Fifth Wheel Trailer with 2015 Ram with Square Gooseneck Hole in Bed
  • Since the hole for the gooseneck ball is square that would mean you have an aftermarket gooseneck hitch installed. Since it is square you might be in luck though. If you get under the truck bed and the hitch is painted gray like the B and W gooseneck part # BWGNRK1384 you can install a Companion hitch like part # BWRVK3500 and you'd have a really great hitch option. If you see that it's a different brand hitch let me know and maybe an adapter like part # CAB-C5G would be your best option.

  • Recommended Timbren Suspension Enhancement for 5th Wheel Towing with a 2015 Ram 2500 4x4
  • Yes, the Timbren suspension enhancement system (SES) jounce-style springs will help to level your 2015 Ram 2500 when you are under a load. The correct part you want to use is # TDR2500D as the other part for the rear suspension, part # TDRTT3500E, is designed for service vehicles that are under a constant heavy load. I have attached a review video for the Timbrens as well as a photo that a customer sent in of this same system installed on their 2014 Ram 2500 for you to reference. One...

  • Recommended Motorcycle Carrier Alternative for MaxxTow MaxxHaul Carrier
  • The MaxxTow MaxxHaul Aluminum Motorcycle Carrier MT70101 has actually been discontinued earlier this year (2021) so it isn't available anymore, but we do have some other motorcycle carriers that will work out just fine! For your application I recommend checking out the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier # UF48-979033 which has similar specs and weighs about the same as the aluminum carrier you were looking at. I'm attaching a review video for you to reference for the Ultra-Fab carrier.

  • Comparing SumoSprings and Air Bags for a 2021 Ram 2500
  • Air bags (Air Lift) and upgraded jounce springs (SumoSprings) are both great options to reduce rear end sag and squat while towing or hauling. That said, if you started with air bags you would be let down with upgraded jounce springs because air bags are truly the best option since you can adjust the pressure for the perfect amount of support/comfort for any given load. I would also like to point out you will see a few inches of sag/squat before the jounce springs even engage whereas airbags...

  • Front Mount Hitch and Winch Recommendation for a 2022 Ram 2500
  • I recommend installing the Curt Front Mount Hitch # C31089 on your 2022 Ram 2500. This gives you the hitch and a way to mount a winch at the front of your pickup. Then for a winch I recommend the ComeUp Off-Road Winch w/ Mounting Plate for 2" Hitches # CU854768 which comes with everything you need to get the winch set up and installed on your truck. This comes with a wired remote but it can be upgraded to a wireless remote using the kit # CU881262.
