Installation was very straight forward.
I
used some left over pieces of foam pipe insulation over the cable where it passed over the truck frame and th inner wheel well. I mounted the extended Seven Pin connector just forward of the wheel well just below the bed rail on the driver's side.
The umbilical from our 5th wheel reaches with enough slack to lay on the truck bed.
We picked up our Escape 5.0TA two weeks ago and drove about 3300 miles from WA to MI.
The plug was easy to plug in and unplug.
Overall a very nice product.

@Ronald That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback!

Worked great, I traded the vehicle that I installed the wiring adapter in tho. So it may be of use to someone else also.



by:

Initially worked great, but now it keeps losing connection to the camper. I had to plug the camper in to the 7 way on the bumper to get home. Everything would seem fine but then getting on the highway I'd get a warning message on the dash and lose lights/trailer brakes. Not something you want happening at 70mph.

Truly happy with this product and can't wait to go to work! etrailer sent me everything I requested and the installer had no problems. Everything was packed well in shipping with no problems.

This product makes it so simple to add a Fifth wheel plug into the bed. Installation takes maybe 20-30 minutes. I installed mine on the column at the tailgate so it is out of the way (less likely to get damaged by other cargo). The only issue I experienced with install was that due to the small opening in that column (from under the vehicle), I had to remove the gray wire cover and then reinstall it after feeding the wire harness up into the column. (This was minor) Would definitely recommend this as it is simply "plug n play" with no cutting of wires or crimping needed.

Product and location has worked perfectly and keeps on doing so. Great product!

Product arrived overnight and I installed it upon arrival in order to be able to leave on a planned trip. Install was quick and easy and product was as advertised. I appreciated etrailer getting the order out immediately to me. Top rate company.

Very pleased with etrailer.com. All product information and reviews help make decision very easy. Very quick delivery and installation instructions are very easy to follow. Purchased 5th wheel hitch and custom wiring extension for my 2014 F250.

The products have worked flawlessly no problems and thank you for checking back with me its nice when a company cares about there costumers. Next time I need any trailer products I will definitely be contacting etrailer.

Plug and play. Works great.

The trailer wiring extension worked perfectly for my 2013 2500HD setup. It was easy to install and makes hooking up and trailering that much easier.



by:

Nice long wiring harness.



by:

Awesome product fit the truck just like it should and very easy to install keeps me from scratching the tailgate with a wire over the back of the truck easy to reach when hooking up trailer



by:

Working very well yet!



by:

Easy install and a great product. Used on 5th wheel rv trailer. No more wiring cord from trailer hanging over the end gate. Thanks!



by:

Went on in minutes



by:

Customer service for product selection and order entry were excellent and focused on my interests and needs. The hitch, custom installation kit, and harness were shipped very quickly and arrived sooner than expected. Everything arrived in excellent condition. Assembly and installation instructions were very clear and specific, and I was able to assemble and install everything with no problems and in a very reasonable amount of time. Total cost was roughly half of what it would have been if I had purchased the products and had them installed by a dealer. I am very satisfied with my experience dealing with etrailer.com, and would highly recommend them to anyone shopping for towing products.

I'm a huge fan of completing wiring projects with no "hacking" into harnesses. This harness is plug and play. When I finished installing it, the underside of the truck looks like it came from the factory. Job done

I havent thought about it for a year. I can give no higher praise for a product.it does its job very well.



by:
2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty

I haven't installed it yet, however, I cut the inside bed wall in preparation for a spray-in bed liner before installing.
It looks just like the picture and description, arrived undamaged and ready for install. Great installation instructions!

Still using and I really like the hitch and other items I purchased a year ago. After installing the Curt fifth wheel hitch, Ive used it several times and I will be using it a bunch over rbe next several weeks. Easy to maintain and use.



by:
2019 Ram 2500

This is an easy install and seems well made. I probably didn’t need the 10’ long my truck called for but no problem zip tying up out of the way. Well pleased.



by:

This wiring harness made adding a plug in the bed of the truck for the gooseneck trailer a breeze. I didn’t really need the 10’ harness but I just looped and zip tied the excess. One year later and the plug still works great.



by:
2004 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

Do not like anything to do with automotive wiring so I purchased this item because it appeared to be just plug and play with no cutting or splicing wires. It is just that, plug and play and it was done.

Unplugged 7 point connector attached to bumper and plugged in the new wiring harness. One other plug was unplugged and wiring harness 2nd plug was plugged in. Route wiring loom along along factory wiring loom inside frame close to the front of my 2004 F 250 super Duty 8ft truck bed. Drilled hole and connected harness and plug so my slide in camper electrical will plug into this trailer plug. Screws to mount to inside of truck bed are stainless steel which is great to protect against rust. I also brushed Rustoleum paint inside the hole I cut so there was no bare metal surfaces exposed. 10ft wiring loom was the right choice to get plug up near the front of my 8ft bed.



by:
2019 Dodge Ram Pickup

Quality product with simple plug and play installation.
My 2019 Ram 3500 does not have the fifth wheel prep package. This (and Curt fifth wheel hitch rails / brackets also purchased) made it easy.
Have used this product since 10/2019...no problems in wet or (AZ) dry.

  • Recommended Camper Battery Charger for a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD w/Factory Tow Package
    It sounds like you are trying to charge the batteries of your camper with the Silverado's 7-way trailer plug. As long as you wire the 7-way connectors the same function to function this will provide you with a maintenance charge for your slide in camper but it will not re-charge the batteries. If you need more than just a maintenance charge then I recommend a battery charger like the NOCO Genius Mini # 329-GENIUS5. This can connected to the campers batteries with the ring terminal attachment...

  • Best 5th Wheel Hitch for 2022 Ram 2500 w/ 8' Bed and OEM Prep Package
    I recommend the Curt Q20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package # C16530-16021 for your 2022 Ram 2500 with OEM Prep Package. This hitch has a gross towing weight of 20,000 lbs and vertical load limit of 5,000 lbs. It also has a 2-Jaw locking system that provides a 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact for less rattle and more security than slide-bar models. The built-in cushioning absorbs road shock and has a 3-Point indicator system in which the color coding tells you if the...

  • Are Legs That Fit In Factory Pucks Included with Curt C16545-16021 Q24 5th Wheel Hitch
    The Curt # C16545-16021 Q24 5th wheel hitch you'd looked at is indeed a complete hitch which includes the legs that would attach to the factory pucks in the bed of your 2022 Ram 3500 Long Bed. The legs/feet are easier to see in the linked product description video. You might also want to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, so you won't have to run the trailer connector cable up over the tailgate. You can install an in-bed 7-way using part # C56000.

  • Recommended Gooseneck Hitch For A 2018 Ram 2500 With Short Bed And No Prep Package
    To get a gooseneck installed on your 2018 Ram 2500 with 6.5 foot bed, you will need the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # BWGNRK1384. This is specifically designed for Rams without the prep package with or without a factory Air Suspension system. This is also made in the USA, so I am highly preferable to their products. One potential add-on to consider will be the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Wiring Harness # C56000. This can be added...

With Curt base rail install kit # C16427-204 the position of the front-facing edge of the front base rail on a 6-foot bed will be 54-1/4-inches from the rear edge of the truck bed (not the tailgate) as shown in the linked diagram taken...

You can use their 20K-rated Companion hitch # BWRVK3770. It can be argued that B&W makes the finest 5th wheel hitches on the market. Completely USA-fabricated and assembled, the Companion boasts features like 12-inches of slider travel, beefy 1-inch-thick jaws that solidly grip your trailer king pin for little to no rattle, and a full-articulating...

  • Recommended Sidewinder Pin Box for Shasta Phoenix 370FE and 5th Wheel Hitch for 2018 GMC 3500 65 Box
    For your 2018 GMC Sierra 3500, the Reese M5 5th wheel hitch # RP30928 and install kit # RP56001-53 would be a great option. This 5th wheel hitch will work well with a 5th Airborne Sidewinder like the Reese 5th Airborne Premium 5th Wheel Air Ride King Pin w/ Sidewinder and Turret # RP61422.

The goosenck hitch rail kit you need will depend on which B&W, Reese or Curt gooseneck hitch you're using. If you could reply with that information, I'd be happy to make a recommendation.

    I have some options for you, but unfortunately I could not find a 7-Way 5th wheel/gooseneck wiring Connector Loop shorter than the Draw-Tite # 20027. I recommend simply looping up any excess and wrapping a zip tie # DW05727-25 around it to adjust it to a shorter length. If your tow vehicle has a 7-way at the bumper that uses a US-Style car connector, another option is to install a 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Harness in line by using the Curt # C56000. This will provide you with a 7-way connection...

  • Will Curt A16 5th Wheel Hitch Sit Below Truck Rails on 2012 GMC Sierra 2500HD
    The Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16621 you referenced in your question will work with your 2012 GMC Sierra. The height of this 5th Wheel Hitch can range between 17-1/2 inches to 21-1/2 inches. I did some research and found that the depth of the truck bed on your 2012 GMC Sierra is 21 inches. To be sure the hitch will fit under your Tonneau Cover when it is closed, you can measure from your truck bed floor to the underside of the Tonneau Cover. As long as this provides at least 22...

Just make sure you have the Reese Universal Outboard Base Rails # RP30153 to match up with the design of the brackets. Both kits are available as a package with part # RP56018-53 on our site.

  • Which B&W Companion Hitch for 2016 Ford F-350 Long Bed
    The B&W BWRVK3405 is a replacement slider base, not a complete hitch. If you needed a replacement non-sliding base, you'd use part # BWRVB3500. You want to use a sliding hitch in a short bed truck to provide greater clearance between the cab and the front of the fifth wheel for low-speed turns, but a sliding hitch isn't necessary in a long bed truck because there's already plenty of clearance. If you needed the entire hitch, which includes the base and the hitch head, I'd recommend the...

For your 2020 GMC 2500 Denali I recommend the B&W Companion Hitch # BWRVK3710 which will work in the factory puck system on 2020 GMC trucks.

I recommend the Curt Q20 fifth wheel hitch, part # C16541 as well as the # RP50054-58 installation kit. The Q20 features a fully articulating hitch head and a two piece jaw mechanism that holds the king pin very tightly, which provides good ride quality.

I was able to find the towing specs sheet for the 2011 Ford F-350 and its 5th wheel towing capacity can range from as low as 12,300 pounds (6.2L Engine, 3.73 Axle Ratio, Regular Cab, SRW, 4X4) to as high as 22,700 pounds (6.7L Turbo Diesel, 3.73 axle ratio, Regular Cab, DRW, 4X2) and numerous...
