Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Ram 2500 with Rail Kit and Hitch Prep
Question:
I have a 2016 Dodge 2500 megacab 4x4 with the 5th wheel prep package. Im looking for a sliding 5th wheel hitch package that is compatible with the predrilled factory holes. Also, any videos that are vehicle/hitch specific would be a plus, I prefer to do my own work if its not out of my skill set. What are your recommendations?

Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Ram 2500 short bed with the factory rail kit the best slider hitch we offer that fits directly to the rail kit is the B and W Companion Slider part # BWRVK3670. This hitch is easy to install and will work great. The Companion hitches are considered by most to be the nicest hitches available so you will be very happy with it.
I also attached a video that shows the hitch installed in a similar truck as yours as well.
