Frame-Mounted Hitches for 5th Wheel Trailers
Question:
Do you happen to know the frame width hitch that I need for a 2012 Keystone Montana High Country 5th wheel. Last time I looked under it I couldnt see the frame due to the underbelly.

Trailer makers do not usually include frame dimensions in their website specs, and I found this to be true for Keystone. Also, since there are currently 19 different models of 5th wheel trailer in the Montana High Country series it is possible that frame dimensions could differ between models and model years. The best ways to confirm your frame width are to crawl under the trailer and remove the panels that are blocking access for measuring or to contact Keystone with your VIN so that they can look up the specific chassis on which your 5th wheel is built.
The good news is that we do offer frame-mount RV hitches that can work with outside-to-outside frame dimensions from as narrow as 18-inches, the Curt # C13702 which can be bolted or welded on, and up to as wide as 77-inches, Ultra-Fab part # UF35-946403 which is a weld-on installation.
All of our RV hitches have a 2-inch receiver and their tongue weight (TW) and gross trailer weight (GTW) ratings do vary. You can see all available products by clicking on the included link.
