Recommended Gooseneck Trailer Hitch For a 2023 Ram 2500 Without Prep/Puck System
Question:
My 2023 Ram 2500 did not come with a gooseneck hitch. What hitch do you recommend?
asked by: Junior
Expert Reply:
I recommend installing the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1320 on your 2023 Ram 2500. This allows you to bolt into the factory structure and flip over the gooseneck ball when not needed for a smooth bed floor. It will also allow you to use either the B&W Companion Fixed # BWRVK3500 or Slider # BWRVK3400 if you need to tow a 5th wheel in the future.
I recommend installing the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 41157. This will allow you to plug the trailer connector inside your bed. This way you will not have to drape the wiring over your tailgate and risk damaging your truck from the wiring dragging across the truck.
