Expert Answers about Ram 3500


  • AC Unit for 2018 Jayco Greyhawk Class C in Place of Roof Vent
  • Hey Tim, so the great news is that the RV AC units like the Advent Air # ACM150 that you referenced were designed to fit this size roof opening. What you would need though is a unit that comes with a vent assembly as well with the part # ACM135C.

  • What Are the Frame Tabs Called That a 5th Wheel Pin Box Mount to?
  • Hey David, great questions! I'll answer them in the same order you asked them: 1 - There isn't an official name for those brackets that I know of. They are part of the trailer frame so I guess technically they are pin box frame brackets, but another common term for them is "wing brackets" since they look like wings without the pin box installed. 2 - There are different mounting hole patterns like you referenced and, consequently, there are different pin box sizes and weight ratings.

  • Availability Of Rebuild Kit For Kodiak 2550 Caliper
  • Hello Gregory. The Caliper Rebuild Kit # BP18-075 is only compatible with the 10K - 12K rated Dexter calipers, so I cannot recommend using this for your Kodiak 2250 calipers. Unfortunately, we do not offer a repair kit for the Kodiak 2550 calipers at this time so we would have to recommend replacing the caliper entirely.

  • How Long of a Ramp Is Needed for Loading Harley in Truck Bed
  • In general for ramps used to load a Harley you want to go with a ramp that is three times as long as the height of the truck bed. So if that number was 30 inches the Arch Loading Ramp part # 288-07432 would work great as it measures 90 inches and has a 1,500 lb weight capacity. This is our longest single ramp we offer though.

  • How to Determine 5th Wheel Pin Box to Switch to Gooseneck Adapter
  • I think we can make things less frustrating, as there is a way to identify your pin box even if you don't have the identifying plate or sticker to tell you exactly what it is. You will need to do a bit of measuring of the bolt holes on your pin box as well as the pin box itself, but this will allow you to determine exactly what you have. I have added a link below to a help article called "Measuring to Determine the Correct Replacement Pin Box for a 5th-Wheel Trailer" which has the exact...

  • Does BAKBox 2 Collapsible Truck Bed Toolbox Slide in Truck Bed
  • The BAKBox 2 Collapsible Truck Bed Toolbox # BAK92201 will be in a fixed position once installed. The bolts for the brackets are tightened down on each side to keep the toolbox in place. You can install it anywhere along the rails underneath the BAKFlip MX4 # BAK48204. Since the rails run to the tailgate it would be possible to put it there, but the recommended position is all the way forward toward the cab. If you want to move it just keep a Phillips screwdriver handy and you can loosen...

  • Compatibility of Tekonsha Prodigy RF With 2022 Ram 3500 Towing Gooseneck Trailer
  • Yes, the Tekonsha Prodigy RF will work as a brake controller for your setup. However, unless you are really set on having an actual remote control I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 instead. The Echo plugs in-line with the 7-way at the back of your 2022 Ram 3500 instead of mounting it to the trailer. This would allow you to use it with other trailers as well if you wish, along with other vehicles. The braking power is adjusted via the app on your phone...

  • Will The Curt Universal Base Rail Installation Kit # C16101 Fit A 2016 Ram 3500
  • Hey Kyle, The Curt Universal Base Rail Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # C16101 is a universal-fit so it's going to fit your Ram but depending on the rails you currently have might not be a fit. You would need Curt rails like part # C16104 in order to use these brackets.

  • We've found that the Firestone air bags are the highest quality so for your 2018 Ram 3500 I would recommend the Firestone kit part # F2615, Eric. This is compatible with in-bed hitches like the B and W Turnoverball part # BWGNRK1314 you have as well.

  • Yes, there are parts to convert a fixed Curt Q20 5th wheel hitch like item # C16130 into a slider that will fit your Ram puck system. You won't have to buy a new hitch.

  • Air Bags That Fit 2023 Ram 3500 Cab & Chassis
  • There is one option for air bags that fit your 2023 Ram 3500, though it isn't the kit you mentioned. Keep in mind you will need at least 8 inches of distance from the outside of the frame to the inside of your tire for the kit to fit, and if you have that then you can use the following: - Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2478 Also, I do highly recommend adding a compressor in order to make both monitoring and maintaining the air bags much easier. The best option to do so is a...

  • Does Demco Offer A Rebuild Kit For The Head Unit For 12K Autoslide DM8550035
  • Hello Jeff. There is not a rebuild kit made specifically for the Head for the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches. There are a few various replacement parts available if you are looking for something specific. Otherwise the only solution would be to replace the head entirely with part # DM6081. If there is a specific part you are needing just comment below and let me know.

  • Higher Capacity Firestone Air Bag Suspension Enhancement Kit that Fits 2018 Ram 3500 Dually
  • Hey Tom, the Firestone Red Label kit part # F2710 is a fit for your 2018 Ram 3500 dually and would be a great option to provide additional suspension support but there isn't a kit that will convert it's air lines to stainless steel like you asked about. Air Lift used to have versions of their kits that had stainless lines but that's not something available any more.

  • Will SumoSprings Help 2024 Ram 3500 With Squat When Towing 5th Wheel
  • Hi Mike; appreciate the question and for your 2024 Ram 3500, I absolutely recommend going with the SumoSprings. The factory air suspension is fine, but SumoSprings are specifically designed for your application, to level the load and help prevent squatting. Since you mentioned having a large 5th wheel, I recommend the 5k option: - SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSR-301-47-2 These will take the brunt of the weight put on your Ram's rear suspension to counteract sag when you're...

  • Will Rain-X Latitude Windshield Wiper Blade Fit 2021 Ram 3500
  • Your 2021 Ram 3500 uses 24" wiper blades. The # RX5079274-2 are only 16" long and we don't have a 24" in this style. What you can use instead is the Michelin Stealth Ultra Windshield Wiper Blade # MCH8524. These use a SmartFlex suspension system for uniform wiping with 8 pressure points along the blade. I went ahead and attached a review video along with a link to all of our wiper blades that fit your Ram for your reference.

  • Will B&W Hitch Work With Torklift Tie-Dowsn on 2015 Ram 3500 Dually
  • Hi Kevin; you can definitely install the B&W Heavy-Duty Trailer Hitch Receiver # BWHDRH25503 on your 2015 Ram 3500 for an increase in capacity. Since you are switching from the OEM hitch to an aftermarket you will have to swap out your rear tie-downs with # TLR3500.

  • Timken Bearing kit for Dexter 4,400 lb Trailer Axle
  • We have the individual components of a bearing kit available for a Dexter 4,400 lb trailer axle but since it's a rarer axle capacity we don't have a bearing kit. So for a Timken set you'd want the part # TMK49FR and # TMK56FR and then for a grease seal # 58846.

  • Will an Anderson Hitch Work w/ a 2023 Ram 3500 w/ Ramboxes to Pull a 5th Wheel Trailer?
  • Yes, there will. Unless your Anderson hitch can get the connection above your bedsides you need a rotating pin box like the Reese Sidewinder item # RP34FR to avoid your Ramboxes. The rotating pin box moves the turning point of your 5th wheel trailer above your Ram's narrow bedsides to give you a full 90 degree turning radius. You would need to use a standard 5th wheel hitch instead. The Reese Sidewinder item # RP34FR fits quite a few different pin boxes but I would need to see the sticker...
