This is my first hitch. I decided to go this route after finding out the dealership wanted over 1500 to install rails hitch and plug.
Install was not too aweful bad I did the install in about 4 hours of everything. I took my time so nothing would be screwed up. The install videos where awesome and very discriptive.

  • Gooseneck & 5th Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually Long Bed
    We can offer you a choice of several under-bed gooseneck hitches for your 1997 Dodge Ram 3500 dually long bed. You can see all by clicking on the link provided. The one I recommend is the B&W kit # BWGNRK1394. An install video is provided. I suggest this for its outstanding USA-made build quality that is second to none, for its limited lifetime warranty and because this gooseneck allows you to instantly convert the truck to 5th wheel towing by simply dropping in B&W's Companion 5th wheel...

  • Replacing Factory 7-Way and In-Bed 7-Way Trailer Connectors on a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500
    For your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 with factory 7-Way you can use 5th wheel/gooseneck wiring harness # C56071 for a 7-foot-long model or # C56001 for a 10-foot model. For the rear 7-Way you can use 7-Way # PK11893 if the harness on the back of your 7-Way is the standard round US car connector. If it isn't then you would also need # PK11998 and would need to hardwire it in by function by testing the wires on the truck with a circuit tester such as # PTW2993. The functions of harness # PK11998...

  • Will Pro Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch and Universal Install Kit Fit a 1998 Dodge Ram Long Bed
    Yes, the Pro Series 5th wheel trailer hitch with universal installation kit, # PS30128, will fit your 1998 Dodge Ram long bed. I have included a link to the instructions for the universal kit and a video showing an example installation on a similar truck you can use as a guide, though the installation will not be exactly the same. I also recommend adding an in-bed 7-Way trailer connector, # C56001, to make hooking up easier. I have linked a video and the instructions for the wiring as well.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for an UnderBed Gooseneck Hitch on a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500
    I would be happy to help you. The B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3500-5W is only compatible with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # BWGNRK1313. If your 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 has a square gooseneck ball receiver in the bed then the B&W Companion will work with your truck. If your truck has a round receiver or one with threads then you will need to either replace that system or use a different 5th wheel hitch. The Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer...

  • Where Should King Pin Sit in the Bed of a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 for 5th Wheel Towing
    Typically the king pin will be located directly above, or slightly forward of the rear axle on any given pickup. If you were to install a universal base rail kit like the Reese # RP30035 on your 1997 Dodge Ram 2500 the (linked) instructions state that the king pin will be about 2" forward of the axle center. I have attached a picture of the instructions that show where you would install the base rails in relation to your truck bed. I recommend going with the Reese single-jaw 5th wheel...

  • 5th Wheel Hitch Type and Installation Kit for 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Short Bed
    If the hitch from the 2017 Ram is intended for the factory puck system, such as the B&W # BWRVK3670, then it cannot be installed in a truck with standard 5th wheel base rails. Your 6-foot bed Ram 2500 needs to use a sliding-type 5th wheel hitch like Curt # C16541 in order to have the turning clearance required to avoid the trailer overhang contacting the truck cab. The easiest base rail installation in your 2006 Ram 2500 will be with a custom install kit that requires less drilling. I...

  • Reese 5th Wheel Installation Bracket Kit for 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab
    For a custom 5th wheel installation bracket kit for your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab to install your Reese base rails you can use # RP50140. For hardware to secure the rails to the brackets use part # RP58430. If you need a 5th wheel wiring harness for the truck bed you can use part # C56001.

  • 5th Wheel Installation Kit for 1998 Dodge Ram Pickup
    We do have 5th wheel hitch installation kits that include the frame brackets, hardware and hitch base rails. These are industry-standard rails that work with all brands of standard 5th wheel hitch. I recommend the Husky custom install kit # HT31404-686. This kit fits both 6-foot and 8-foot bed models. Drilling is required. There is not a no-drill kit for your truck. For an in-bed wiring harness you can use part # C56001.

  • Custom 5th Wheel Hitch Installation Kit for 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab with 6-Foot Bed
    For your 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Mega Cab with 6-foot bed I recommend a custom-fit 5th wheel installation kit that will reduce your install time. The lowest-price option currently is the Curt # C16420-204 which includes the base rails, custom under-bed brackets and hardware. You can refer to the linked video for a complete illustration of the installation process. If you need a 5th wheel wiring harness for the truck bed you can use part # C56001 Since your truck is a short bed, slider type...

  • Recommended Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Between Demco, Husky, Curt, and Reese
    All four manufacturers, Demco, Husky, Curt, and Reese are great companies that have been in the 5th wheel towing business for a long time. I would have no problem recommending any of them for a towing setup. Since your 1999 Dodge Ram has a 6 foot bed you will need a sliding 5th wheel hitch to give you extra turning clearance for those tight turning situations. The best 5th wheel sliding hitch that we have to offer is from Demco. The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch enables you...

  • Auto Slide 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2008 Dodge Ram 3500
    We have exactly what you need.

This hitch would install in your 2008 Ram 3500 using the Underbed Rail and Installation Kit for Demco Hijacker # DM8551005. You may also be interested in the Curt 5th Wheel Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector # C56001. This wiring harness will...

  • Can I Transfer 5th Wheel Hitch Base Rails from a 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 to a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500
    Your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 base rails can transfer to your 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 (because they are in the same generation). You will need to get new custom fit wiring # HM42137 (the 1999 custom fit wiring is # C56001) & replacement hardware kit for Draw-Tite and Reese 5th wheel hitches # 58164. I included a couple installation videos and a helpful article for you too.

  • Is a Sidewinder Pin Box Compatible With a B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch?
    To use any Sidewinder pin box, you will not be able to keep your B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck hitch because it is not made for the torque when turning required for that system. No adapter will solve this. However, there is still a way to allow you to tow a gooseneck trailer using a 5th wheel rail kit. You have a couple options. If you want to keep a clean bed, then you can use the Under-Bed Rail and Installation Kit for Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30074 to give you...

  • Installation Brackets for 5th Wheel Hitch to Be Installed in 2007 Dodge Ram 1500
    Any brand of industry-standard 5th wheel hitch will fit into any brand of industry-standard base rails, but the frame brackets that secure the rails to the truck frame should not be mixed with base rails from another maker since there can be compatibility issues. So in other words, you will want to use brackets from the same maker as your base rails (again, the hitch brand does not matter here).

  • Will Curt C61509-52 Overbed, Folding Ball Gooseneck Hitch Fit a 1996 Dodge Ram 2500
    According to Curt, the installation rails included with the # C61509-52 Gooseneck Hitch will fit 1500, 2500 and 3500 series models of the 1996 Dodge Ram truck, unless it's a cab/chassis truck instead of a pickup. If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, you could do so using part # C56001.

  • Replacement OEM Plug Adapter for 7-Way on 2010 Dodge Dakota Big Horn
    The correct OEM replacement for the 7-way wiring harness on your 2010 Dodge Dakota is the # PK11933. If your 7-way was damaged when it melted you can replace both using the # HM40975-11933. There is no option that comes with a built in T that would allow you to run 5th wheel/gooseneck wiring. The only option would be to buy a complete wiring harness and add it in like the # C56001 you were looking at.

  • Industry Standard Rail Kits for a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500
    I would be happy to help you find an installation kit to use your Reese 5th Wheel hitch on your 2006 Dodge Ram 3500. I have a couple of options depending on whether or not your truck is a diesel. If you have the diesel engine then I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # RP56011-53. This kit will provide you with a set of industry standard rails. The custom brackets mount to existing holes in your frame, minimizing drilling and measuring....

    The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # BWGNRK1313 for your 2006 Dodge Ram will be extremely easy to install without the bed on your truck. This is a custom fit kit which does not require drilling into your frame. You can make all modifications to your bed without it on your truck. The only cut you will have to make is a 4" diameter hole into your bed for the ball and then you will drill holes out for the safety chains.
