The tailgate of a 2017 Ram 3500 does not need to be removed or replaced to tow a 5th wheel trailer. We do however have some tailgate options that allow more room for a 5th wheel or a gooseneck trailer.

I do have a 5th wheel tailgate for you but the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with Lock part # VG-15-4000 will not fit. This tailgate is confirmed to fit a Ford F-250 from 2017-2018 only. For a 5th wheel tailgate that will fit your 2006 Ford F-250 you will want to use the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with Lock part # VG-97-4000.
I have attached an installation video of this tailgate on a 2006 Ford F-250 for you as well. view full answer...

A 5th wheel tailgate will provide better turning clearance than the standard tailgate on your 2014 Ford F-150 but it is still possible that, while turning, the pin box could make contact with the tailgate.
Another option is a tailgate net, # TR-03. It will be easy to take down and put back up so as to avoid any contact with the trailer pin box. Fifth wheel tailgates such as # VG-04-4000 work best with long bed trucks since the hitches for them don't slide. view full answer...

Of the two confirmed fitting options for your 2013 Ford F-350 Super Duty I personally prefer the look of the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with Lock for Ford Trucks # VG-97-4000.

The 2011 and 2016 Chevy Silverado 2500 series trucks do not use the same 5th wheel tailgates. The dimensions of the trucks are different so they require different tailgate designs.

I have some solutions to help your towing set-up, but there is no way to extend the pin box out an additional 8 inches to increase the distance between the back of the truck tailgate and the trailer.
It is not ideal to tow with your truck's tailgate down for the very issue you are experiencing. If the reason you are leaving the tailgate down is because the pin box contacts the tailgate, I have a solution for you. To offer more room for the pin box, a great solution is to replace your... view full answer...
Hi Butch,
We do have the correct 5th wheel tailgate for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 2500, but the tailgate from a 2014 Silverado won't fit a 2008 model year. Instead, for your 2008 Silverado, what you need is the following:
- Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with Lock for GM Trucks # VGM-07-4000
I did verify this fit directly with the manufacturer for you. view full answer...
I do have a 5th wheel tailgate for your 2017 Ford F-350 but a 5th wheel tailgate from a 2012 Ford F-350 will not work for you nor is there a kit to convert one to the other. Your best option is to purchase the tailgate specifically designed for your truck and sell the old one to recoup some of your money. For your 2017 Ford F-350, I recommend using the Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate part # VG-15-4000. This is currently the only option we have for you at this time.

You can paint the 100 series tailgate since it is powder coated steel. If you are going to use the 5th wheel tailgate often or exclusively then painting it to match the truck would be a good idea. view full answer...
