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... view full answer...
The difference between the 5th wheel installation kits # RP30852 and # RP30074 is what they fit. Kit # RP30852 is designed for 2010 to current Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 series. Kit # RP30074 was originally designed for the Signature Series hitches and it fits various Ram models going back to 2002.
There is also a capacity difference. Kit # RP30852 is rated for 25,000 pounds while # RP30074 is rated for 18,000 pounds. However, you should always go by what the truck is rated for as stated... view full answer...
The Envoy is an older brake controller that Tekonsha does not sell any longer. I do not know much about the Envoy controller so I asked my Tekonsha rep what he thought about the two and he stated that the Voyager is a more effective/reliable and user friendly brake control unit than the Envoy unit.
The Tekonsha Voyager, part # 39510, is still sold by Tekonsha, and it has proved to be a valuable brake controller. I have added links to the Voyager instructions as well as a video review of... view full answer...
The Replacement Bevel Gear Kit # F0933306S00 is for applications.
The # F0933302S00 will fit the following Fulton jack models: TJ503/C, TJU503, PMJ53, TJ507/C, PMJ75, CS750, GR700/TJ712, XP10/6/W/WC and XP100.
Since your jack is as old as it is and you do not know which model you have or even if it is a Fulton jack, I cannot say for certain which gear kit you would need.
I attached a page that has all of our Fulton weld-on application jacks for you to check out. You may find that it... view full answer...
The only difference between the TST TPMS # TST-507-RV-6-C and # TST-507-FT-6-C is the type of tire sensors that are included with each kit.
Kit # TST-507-RV-6-C comes with 6 standard tire sensors, whereas kit # TST-507-FT-6-C comes with 6 flow through tire sensors, which let you inflate or deflate your tires without needing to remove them from the valve stems. The added convenience easily outweighs the small price difference, so I personally recommend going with # TST-507-FT-6-C. view full answer...
There is another B&W 5th wheel hitch available for the 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 short bed, but it utilizes above bed rails. This would be cumbersome to get access to your gooseneck if you ever want to, and it wouldn't have as low of a profile.
I recommend sticking with the Companion for yours, part # BWRVK3400-5W, since you already have the underbed kit installed. It can be easily removed to give you full bed access.
I've linked to a video review of this hitch for your consideration. view full answer...
We offer three Class V Curt hitches for your 1995 Dodge Ram 3500 4WD Dually Diesel that can be seen on the linked page. All share the same 2400-lb tongue weight (TW) and 16K maximum trailer weight ratings, and all increase to 17K GTW if used with a weight distribution system.
The difference between Curt hitches # C15318 and # C15319 is that C15318 installs without drilling while C15319 may require some drilling due to vehicle manufacturing variances. I have linked a video for hitch C15318... view full answer...
The differences in height between the two adapters is very minimal. The Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Ram Towing Prep Package # C16022 adds 1-1/2" to the height of a hitch while the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package # DM6099 adds 1-3/8" to the height of a hitch. So the Demco is just 1/8" lower than the option from Curt. view full answer...
The gooseneck hitch you referenced, Draw-Tite # 9460-39, is rated for 30,000-lb gross trailer weight and 7500-lb tongue weight ratings. The installation instructions for both are identical and those are linked for you. view full answer...
Reese and Curt both make quality 5th wheel hitches. At a given price point a Curt 5th wheel can tend to include more features than a similar Reese or Pro Series. For example, Curt A20 Sliding 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16541 features a 360-degree pivoting cushioned head. The Curt will make hitching easier (thanks to the 360-pivoting head) and deliver a smoother ride (thanks to the cushioning). The Curt A20 also has a smaller price tag AND a 10-year warranty, as compared to the Reese hitch's... view full answer...
If you have never used a brake controller before, the P2 # 90885 will be easier to learn on and use than the P3, # 90195. The P3 has several features the P2 doesn't though including the ability to change the LED screen color, change the language, and the biggest difference is the diagnostics. Instead of flashing a code you would have to look at the P3 has clear messages telling you what the problem is. So there is a trade-off there.
Other than that the controllers function in the same... view full answer...
The shocks you're wanting to compare have different sized eyelets and are designed for specific hydraulic actuators. Sometimes you can fit actuator replacement parts from one actuator to another but the majority of the time you need to use an exact replacement. Here are the actuator models that are designed for these shocks:
- Replacement Shock for Demco Hydraulic Trailer Brake Actuators - Models DA10, DA16, DA20, and DA91 # DS12426
- Replacement Shock for Dexter Model 6 and 10 Brake... view full answer...
The Brophy Camper Scissor Steps # AS25 have 7-inches of rise between steps and an extended height of 40-48-inches. The TorkLift GlowStep Camper Scissor Steps # TLA7506 have 7-1/2-inches of rise between steps and a mounting bracket height of 49-1/2-inches when extended.
The reason the two steps have a similar overall height, despite having a different number of steps, is that the Brophy steps are almost 1-1/2-times as deep at 8-3/4-inches versus 6-inches for the TorkLift.

There's a few differences.
• The Curt # C31017 is manufactured in the US, while the Draw-Tite # 65046 is manufactured in Mexico.
• When installed, the Curt hitch will sit higher on the vehicle for more ground clearance. The underside of the
receiver tube will sit even with the bottom of the fascia under the bumper. The fascia will need to be notched so
the receiver can pass through it. Unless you're planning on carrying something very heavy on the front of the
truck like a generator... view full answer...
Both the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuners # SU3845 and # SU4845 will give you the same tuning for your 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7L with the 3.92 gears. The main difference between these tuners is the # SU3845 is specific to only yours and similar Ram trucks with a gas engine. The # SU4845 can also be used with certain F-Series, Silverados, Mustangs, Camaros, and Challengers. view full answer...
There are a few differences between the Curt and the Reese fifth wheel hitches. I am comparing the 20,000 lb hitches, the Curt is part # C16130, and the Reese is part # RP30928. Both are good hitches but do have some differences to take note of.
Both have custom installation brackets available. The Curt hitch has a vertical load limit of 4,000 lbs, and a height adjustment between 13 to 17 inches, where the Reese hitch has a vertical load limit of 5,000 lbs and a height adjustment from... view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Curt about your 2014 Dodge Ram 1500. They said it would depend on how you are planning on using the hitch you choose.
If you are planning on towing something that would require a weight distribution system when towing, you will want the part # 13374. Weight distribution is needed if your trailer weight is more than 50 percent of your truck weight, or if the rear of your truck sags when the trailer is hooked up, or you experience trailer sway.

The difference between the single axis P3, # 90195, and the tri-axis P2, # 90885, is how they can be mounted. The P3 can be mounted between -90 degrees straight down or 90 degrees straight up (not tilted to the side and in the direction of travel).
The P2 can be mounted a full 360 degrees in the direction of travel and not tilted to the side. As long as either controller is properly mounted according to the manufacturer instructions, they will perform well. The only difference you would... view full answer...
The two rails you mentioned, part # RP58058 and # C16204, are basically the exact same rails made by two different companies. They are both made to the industry standard rail design so either will work great with the Reese hitch part # RP30083 that you referenced. view full answer...
