Question:
What is the best fifth wheel hitch for a 2024 Ram 3500 Long bed with the factory prep. My fifth wheel is a hair under 20,000 loaded. What do you recommend? Thank you

Expert Reply:
For your 2024 Ram 3500 Long Bed with the Factory Prep I recommend the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3600. This is a 25,000 lb rated hitch, so it will be plenty strong for your fifth wheel at just under 20K. My favorite thing about this hitch is the dual jaw. The design makes it easy to open and close, and it provides excellent king pin contact. This makes for a much smoother ride and less chucking. The head is also fully articulating, which makes for simple hook-up and release, even on unlevel terrain. All of the B&W hitches are made in the USA, so that is definitely what I would go with.
I have linked a few of our install videos below if you want to take a look.
