Expert Answers about Ram 3500


  • Recommended Lube Plate for Reese # RP30081 Select Plus 5th Wheel Hitch
  • The # RP83001 lube plate is what Reese recommends using with your hitch. The Reese # 83003 lube plate you referred to is designed for their Titan R16 hitch, part # RP30866, so it wouldn't be compatible with your # RP30081 Reese Select Plus hitch.

  • Recommended Air Bags for a 2022 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis
  • Actually yes, we have the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs, # F2478 which are confirmed to fit the 2022 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis and reading through the installation instructions there shows nothing of needing to do this modification. Please note the attached image showing how the lower bracket attaches. Because it installs over the leaf springs there is no issue. I do recommend an air compressor kit for this project. I suggest the Air Command F3 Compressor System, # F2610. Please...

  • Availability Of Gooseneck Hitch For 2021 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis With No Bed
  • We have just what you are looking for. I recommend the Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate # C65500 which can be installed on your 2021 Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis with no flatbed. This will need to get welded to the frame, and then bracing will also need to be added and welded on to further strengthen the plate. To give you a 7-way connector to plug your gooseneck trailer in to you may also need the # C56070 which plugs in to your existing 7-way connector and allows you to mount another one closer...

  • Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2015 Ram 3500 to Install 22k Reese Fifth Wheel Hitch
  • To install the Reese 22k Fifth Wheel Hitch part # RP30033 in your 2015 Ram 3500 without the factory rail kit will only require you to install the correct fifth wheel rail kit. For that you would want the custom install kit that will minimize drilling on your vehicle and will cut install time considerably. For that you would want part # RP50085-58.

  • Recommended Offset for 5th Wheel Hitch and Gooseneck Trailer on Ram 3500 Cab and Chassis
  • The Wallace Forge Gooseneck to Fifth Wheel Trailer Adapter # 2085205 you asked this from will not give you any offset. It sounds like you are looking for an offset like the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter - 20,000 lbs # AM3200 which will give you a 9 inch offset. If you just want to convert 5th wheel rails to a gooseneck trailer, then you can use the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel Rails - 3" Offset # 16055. You can also...

  • Suspension Enhancement Recommendation for 2011 Ram 3500 Towing Fifth Wheel
  • There are pros and cons to air bags over Timbrens. If you like the ability to tailor exactly how much suspension support you get and are okay with maintaining air pressure the Firestone kit part # F2701 is a fit for your truck and is compatible with the hitch you have. If instead you want a one time install and don't ever want to mess with the suspension the Timbren kit part # TDR3500CA would be what you need.

  • Recommended Firestone Air Springs for 2013 Ram 3500 Crew Cab with Leaf Springs
  • If your 2013 Ram 3500 Crew Cab is 4 wheel drive, then the Firestone Ride-Rite Red Label Extreme Duty Air Helper Springs # F2710 are a confirmed fit as are # F2615. If you have a 2 wheel drive model, then you will want the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs - Double Convoluted # F2616 springs instead. They will work with your leaf spring suspension perfectly as you can see in the installation video and the installation details. Air springs # F2701 will not fit your vehicle. I also...

  • How To Choose the Correct Wheel Masters Tire Pressure Valve Extenders
  • In order to find correct valve stem extenders, you'd really just need to look at your wheels/tires and make the determination on what will be needed to make them accessible for filling and deflating. I have attached for you below a list of said extenders which vary by length and shape. The Wheel Masters Tire Pressure Valve Extenders part # WM8029135 for example has a 135 degree bend where as the Wheel Masters Tire Pressure Valve Extenders part # WM80293 is completely straight. They could...

  • The 5th wheel hitch for your 2020 Ram 3500 short bed with the OEM puck system that is the easiest to uncouple and disconnect, even on uneven terrain, is without question the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3670. The Companion is widely considered the best 5th wheel hitch on the market for a number of reasons, including its ability to be uncoupled from uneven terrain due to its cam-action handle, which is different than the standard...

  • Tire Chain Recommendation for 2021 Ram 3500 with Tire Size 235/80R17
  • For the tire size of 235/80R17 that you have on your 2021 Ram 3500 the Titan tire chains part # TC2524 would be a really great choice. These install easily, provide great traction, and are durable as well. The diamond pattern also helps with steering traction as well.

  • Do You Carry Mud Flaps That Will Fit My 2021 RAM 3500?
  • Lip moldings are thin modified pieces that fit on the fender over the wheel. They are not as pronounced as fender flares, and lip moldings usually do not protrude as far from the vehicle. Trucks usually either have either lip moldings or fender flares - rarely both. If you are not sure whether your vehicle has lip moldings, there are mudflaps that fit on dullys with or without lip moldings that will fit on your 2021 RAM 3500: Mud Skins Dually Mud Flaps - Hex Shield - Brushed Stainless...

  • Can Pin Box with Air Cushioning Air Bag Provide Additional Clearance if Inflated Further
  • If you inflated the air bags of the pin box to a higher psi you would get a couple inches of height most likely but that's not really what they were intended to do. In just a short term situation to get through an elevation change I am sure you'd be fine but we can't guarantee totally that it would give you all of the clearance you'd need.

  • Do you Offer a Fifth Wheel Hitch Cover that Works with the Curt A25 24K Fifth Wheel
  • We do have an excellent solution for you. The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Cover part # RP30055 will do the job and offer a great fit on your Curt A25 24K Fifth Wheel for the Ram Prep Package like part # C16046. While it is not branded Curt we have found that this cover fits a wide variety of hitches and does a good job of keeping the dirt, debris and weather off of your fifth wheel hitch. Check out the video my buddy David did on the cover that I have linked for you.

  • On and Off Road Tire Chains for LT295/65R20 Tires
  • I did some checking and for 295/65-20 tires you can use sizes 3231 or 3831. For the 3231 size I recommend # TC3231SHD which can be used for both on-road and off-road applications. For the 3831 size I recommend # TC3831 which also can be used for both on-road and off-road applications. There are a lot of tire sizes in between the compatible sizes listed for these tire chains that just don't show up. But resources have indicated that these 2 sizes will work with your tires.

  • Under Bed Auto-Sliding 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch and Install Kit for a 2018 Ram 3500 Short Bed
  • I have the perfect hitch and install kit for your 2018 Ram 3500 short bed. For the under bed installation kit use # DM8551006. Then for the auto-sliding hitch use Demco HiJacker 18K # DM8550022 or the 21K version, # DM8550037. I have linked videos on all three of these products for you. Please note: Installation kit does not fit vehicles with factory Air Suspension system I also recommend Demco 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # DM8555002 to add a 7-Way connector in the bed...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Adapter for 2015 Ram 3500 Flat Bed with B&W Gooseneck Hitch
  • The Hi-Rise Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch # 9480 is designed for compatibility with the B&W Gooseneck systems. There is a specific adapter used for this combination included with the adapter. The biggest issue with a flatbed is the bed is normally not corregated like a traditional truck bed to give that increased stability of the feet in the grooves. Because the feet are adjustable you can get a good amount of grip at the feet but this hitch can still move slightly because the...

  • 2021 Ram 3500 Front Hitch and Roof Rack Recommendations to Carry 2 Kayak While Towing 5th Wheel
  • I recommend going with the Rhino-Rack 1-bar roof rack and T-Loader for your 2021 Ram 3500, along with a front mount hitch and 2 of our J-Style carriers. Here are the parts you'll need: Rhino-Rack Setup 59" Vortex Aero Crossbar - # RRVA150B 2500 Series Legs - # RRRLKVAH Fit Kit - # DK043H T-Load - # RTL002 Front Mount Hitch - # EH37FR Kayak Carrier - # e98878 (x2) I like this system because it gives you everything you need, the EcoHitch from mount hitch has a nice, hidden design, and...

  • How To Carry Kayaks On 2022 Ram 3500 While Towing 5th Wheel
  • In order to prevent clearance issues while turning you'll want to carry the kayaks as far forward as possible. To do this you'll need to support the kayaks on a load extender over the hood using a front mount hitch. The rear of the kayaks can then be secured over the roof with a roof rack. I have attached a list of parts for this setup below. EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # EH37FR Rhino-Rack T-Load Hitch Mounted Load Assist and Support Bar part # RTL002 Rhino-Rack...

  • Options For Loading eBikes In Bed of Truck
  • For loading 75 lb. ebikes, the Viking Solutions Rack Jack II Hoist with Winch for 2" Hitches, # 310-VRJ001 would be sufficient. I don't see the need for the larger hoist, # 310-VMH001. We have available the Westin Truck-Pal Fold-Up Bed Ladder, # 10-3000 that stores on and folds down from the tailgate, making it easy to get in and out of your truck bed. And the Powerbuilt Adjustable Tire Step, # ALL647596.

  • Air Bag Kit Recommendation for 2021 Ram 3500 that has 2 inch Lift Kit
  • For your 2021 Ram 3500 the air bag kit you'd want is the Firestone Ride Rite part # F2615 which will give you the additional support you are wanting. Since you have a 2 inch lift you'd need the spacer kit # F2366 as well to take up the extra space created by the lift kit. We really like the Firestone kits the best as they have the highest quality air bags out there.
