Determining if 2021 Ram 2500 Has OEM Prep for Picking Out Gooseneck
Question:
I just bought a 2021 RAM 2500 Bighorn crew cab short bed to pull a 5th wheel which is setup for the Anderson gooseneck mount 3220. I dont think this truck has a factory prep package but Im not sure what that is. Can you explain what is meant by without factory prep?

Expert Reply:
Hey Ted, so if you look in the bed of your truck and see 5 holes/pucks that would mean you have the OEM prep. I'd assume if you had it you'd have seen them by now. If you had it you'd only need a ball like the part # C60618.
If you don't have it you'd need a gooseneck hitch like the B and W part # BWGNRK1320 and you'd be set.
