Which B&W Hitch For 2022 Ram 3500 Long Bed With OEM Puck System
Question:
Good evening, I am looking at two of your 5th wheel hitches, the BandW, BWRVK3600 and BWRVK3670. My question Is there a benefit with the slider in an 8ft bed 2022 Ram dully over the non-slider. I am kind of an over kill kind of guy. I am not sure, and I am looking for some information. I am told with the slider in the proper position my turning radius is greater, and backing is easier. But I thought this was on short bed trucks. Any help you can offer will be much appreciated, Thank You!

For your 2022 Ram 3500 with an 8 foot bed you can install the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package, # BWRVK3670. It will mount and work just fine but there is no advantage to having the slide feature if you have a long bed truck. The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package, # BWRVK3600 is the recommended 5th wheel hitch for your 2022 Ram 3500 with an 8 foot bed.
The 1" thick jaw on the Companion is precision machined to provide a tight, sturdy connection. And unlike slide-bar models, the rounded 2-piece jaw on this fifth-wheel trailer hitch inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin, resulting in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.
