2023 Ram 3500
Very good quality product. I have a 2023 Ram 3500 Shortened. The fit needs some work as when I used the dimensions provided the rear bolts on the front rail wouldn't clear a bed channel without a lot of finesse. This should be reviewed and corrected. It turned what should have been a 2 hour install into a 5 or six hour install. It is now so tight I have trouble removing and replacing my Andersen Hitch.

Good product fit well Heavy Duty got most of the bolts in and torqued took a good amount of time and took it to a mechanic for a couple bolts I didn’t have the tools for, if I did it again I would pay for a shop to put it in, but it’s a well made and good fitting product

view full answer... - B and W Patriot Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Ram 3500 Short BedWhile 6-1/2 foot is longer than most truck short beds it's still recommended to go with a slider hitch so that you can make tight turns unless the nose of your trailer is tapered to allow for short bed clearance. So for a slider hitch the B and W Patriot Slider part # BWRVK3270 would be the way to go. Then for a custom rail kit for your 2017 Ram 3500 you'd want the part # BWRVK2605 and you'd be set.

view full answer... - Fifth Wheel Towing with 2016 Ram 3500 Equipped with Ram BoxesThe problem isn't with the hitch fitting, the problems are that the 5th wheel's pin box strikes the sides of the bed during turns. The only way a fifth wheel hitch can be used in a Ram Box equipped truck would be to use a Reese Sidewinder. The sidewinder moves the pivot between the trailer and the hitch from where the king pin and hitch jaws meet to where the pin box attaches to the 5th wheel. This moves the pivot point 22 inches rearward, preventing the pin box from hitting the sides of...
view full answer... - Can 2022 Ram 3500 with Ram Boxes Tow Fifth Wheel TrailerThe only way to tow a fifth wheel trailer with a truck that has the Ram Boxes is by using a pivoting pin box like the Sidewinder you mentioned.
