When it comes to installing a hitch plate with receiver tube on your 2022 Ram 5500 The Buyers Products Hitch Plate with Receiver Tube - Dodge/RAM # 3371809067 will work. It has a 2 inch receiver tube, 2 forged D-rings, and a pre-punched hole that fits most trailer electrical connectors. The maximum gross trailer weight is 20,000 pounds.

The highest rated gooseneck hitch ball we currently offer for a Ram 5500 is the Curt Pop-In Ball for Chevy/GM, Ford, Nissan, and Ram Underbed Gooseneck Hitches part # C60634 which is rated for 38,000 lbs. Please note, this is a 3" hitch ball and not the standard 2-5/16". view full answer...
The best option we offer for a cab/chassis truck would be the Reese Low Profile 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, part # RP30054. The hitch has a 30K capacity, and is intended to be bolted directly to the vehicle's frame. Some welding and fabrication work might be necessary for installation. view full answer...
It sure would. The Pigtail of the # HM47210 unplugs from the pigtail, and the # 41157 would plug inline between the pigtail and the 7-way connector as shown in the photo I've edited for you.
If you click the provided link, you can see the # 41157 being installed on a 2011 Ram truck. view full answer...
We have a Buyers Products Hitch Plate with Reciever Tube that does fit your 2019 Ram 5500 with the part # 3371809067, but the part number you mentioned does not fit so it would not work. view full answer...
A bolt on kit is not available for flat bed use, but a straight-forward solution is a hitch for installation between the rails. You could use the Buyers Product # 3375613500, 2-5/16" Fabricators Flatbed Gooseneck Hitch or the B&W # BWGNRK1500, each offering towing capacities of 30K pounds when properly installed. The B&W offers a limited lifetime warranty.

It sounds like the 7-Way connectors are not pinned out in a standard configuration. I have included a picture that shows the vehicle side functions of a 7-Way trailer connector. Use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to determine the functions of your 7-Way and then change the pin out on your 7-Way accordingly.
Electric over hydraulic trailer brakes will only work with certain brake controllers. If your 2016 Ram 5500 has the factory brake controller then make sure it is set to the electric... view full answer...
There is one tire pressure monitoring system I really like over the rest, which is from TireMinder; the reason I like this system is because it is easy to use, compatible with Bluetooth, and best of all, highly accurate, with a margin of error of just 3 percent, So for example, since you have a mighty big gooseneck trailer, let's say your tires are inflated to 130 psi; if you inflated them fully, this system will be accurate within 3 or so psi, which is very precise for these types of systems.

While we don't have an air compressor that is suitable for heavy equipment at a job site, there is a compressor that will work for your large trailer tires, which is the exact compressor you asked about, from Bulldog Winch:
- Bulldog Winch Compressor - 150 psi # BDW41000
The hose on this compressor is 26 feet long, so it can work for your trailer, it just depends exactly where the tires are in relation to its length, as well as where your 12 volt battery is. Compressors for large tires... view full answer...
If you have the space then I recommend the Ultra-Fab Steel Jumbo Roller for Trailers and RVs # UF48-979023. These rollers have an all steel construction and grease zerk fitting to allow you to easily lubricate the roller. I've attached a diagram below displaying the dimensions so you can determine if your trailer has enough height clearance for these rollers. view full answer...
The Reese Low-Profile 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 30,000 lbs # RP30054 will work well with your 2018 Ram 5500. This hitch is designed for heavy-duty towing with a vertical load limit of 7,500 lbs and gross towing weight of 30,000 lbs. so it is perfect for your five car trailer. It will mount directly to the truck frame so no rails are required.
Installation of the hitch may require welding and moderate fabrication. It is also worth noting that the towing capacity will be limited... view full answer...
I have an option for you, but there is not a custom fit Gooseneck Hitch that is confirmed to fit your 2015 Ram 5500.
I recommend using the Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate # C65500. This plate is universal and it's normally placed on top of the flat bed, above the rear axle. You'll need to drill holes through the plate, truck bed and into the truck frame. The manufacturer recommends using (grade 5) 1/2 inch hardware to install the plate.
Note that underbed reinforcement is required to reach... view full answer...
Since your brake controller is working for one truck and not the other, the issue is with the truck's connections, not your brake controller. Your 7-way connector is not providing power at the rear of your 2021 GMC Sierra 3500, for your brake controller. I would take a circuit tester, something like the Hook Probe Circuit Tester, part # PTW2993, and check to see if there is any power coming from the corresponding connector. It will be the lower right if you are looking at the 7-way at the... view full answer...
I know that on any aftermarket brake controller the max output is around 12 volts. I assume that on your brake controller you are testing with the truck not moving, or at least I hope you are! If you are testing without the truck moving use the manual override with the controller set to maximum output, and not the brake pedal. On some proportional brake controllers, the vehicle has to be moving to apply the full voltage back to the trailer brakes.
If you are testing with the manual override... view full answer...
I do have an airbag kit that will work for you in the Lippert Components Center Point part # LC1565391 but nothing that is going to replace the leaf spring. Instead, I recommend taking a look at either the E-Z Flex Heavy Duty Rubber Suspension System or the Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers. They will replace the equalizers you have with a set of cushioned ones that will do an excellent job of minimizing road shock and helping to smooth out the ride.
In order to recommend the correct set... view full answer...
Since the GVWR of your 2018 Rockwood Mini Lite 2506S is under 10000lbs then the Electric Ground Control TT Automatic 5-Point Leveling System # LC672136 you were looking at will fit perfectly.
Using this kit will allow you to quickly and easily level and stabilize your trailer when you get to your campsite without having to manually lower each jack.
I included a video of the # LC672136 for you to take a look at. view full answer...
For your 2020 Dynamax Isata 5 I recommend using the Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System # TDF5500. This system will better serve your suspension as the majority of your added weight is over the rear axle. The # TDF5500HD is more designed for your severe service vehicles like tow trucks and vehicles that will have large plows mounted on them.
For the rear I recommend the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR5500. This will offer you more stability at 12,000lbs versus... view full answer...
For your 2018 Ram 5500 with the 34" frame you will need the Buyers Products Hitch Plate with 2-1/2" Receiver # BP83FR.
The Buyers Products Hitch Plate with 2-1/2" Receiver # 3371809061A is for the Ford Chassis models F350/F450/F550. view full answer...
Honestly with these very heavy weights the Timbren # TDR5500 becomes the best option for your 2011 Ram 5500. This particular kit is rated for 12,000lbs of support capacity to the rear suspension. They are also less likely to become damaged under very heavy loads and you will not have to worry about the air pressure like you get with the Air Bags # AL88255. view full answer...
