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
by: Steven B12/07/2021
Perfect for my needs and installation was a breeze. If these guys sell it you need to seriously consider buying it from them. Customer service, installation and mailer can’t be beat

- Recommended Base Rail Kit For A Curt Crosswing 5th Wheel Hitch In A 2014 Ram 3500 The Curt Crosswing # C86JR is compatible with ISR rails so is a multitude of options for your 2014 Ram 3500 with a 6-1/2' bed. If you have just a standard bed you'll want the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2605. This rail kit has custom fit brackets that require no drilling into the frame to install, which will save a ton of time and frustration. If you have an underbed puck system you'll need the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch...

view full answer... - Sidewinder Pin Box and 5th Wheel Hitch for 2016 Ram 3500 Short BoxThe Ram Box feature is not ideal on a short-bed truck that will do 5th wheel towing due to the chance for interference but we have heard of successful Sidewinder installations. The correct 5th Airborne Sidewinder to replace a 1621 or 1621HD pin box is part # RP61422 that you referenced. This box also fits in place of several Fabex and M&M pin boxes. However, since it is rated for only 16K it will not have the necessary capacity for your trailer. We do offer the non-cushioned 20K-rated...
view full answer... - B&W Custom 5th Wheel Rails And Mounting Brackets For A 2018 Ram 3500The biggest piece of information you're going to need to find is weather or not the rails on your 2018 Ram 3500 are apart of a custom kit like the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2605 , or if it is apart of a universal kit like the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30035.

view full answer... - Recommended B&W 5th Wheel Install Kit for a 2013 Ram Mega CabI believe the Mega Cab was only offered on the 2500 and 3500 models so I will assume that is what your 2013 Ram is. If that is the case then you can choose between the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part # BWRVK2605 which is a custom fit kit that does not require any drilling into the frame or a universal kit like you asked for that requires drilling into the frame, the B&W Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches part...

This kit features industry standard, above-bed base rails that will work with most fifth-wheel hitches on the market. Based on my research, both the Hensley TS3 and BD3 Air Ride 5th Wheel Hitches are designed to fit industry-standard base rails, so either option will work perfectly with the B&W kit on your truck. I have attached an installation video for this kit on the 2013...

- Can Anderson Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitch Be Used With Sidewinder Pin BoxI have another option but unfortunately neither the Anderson Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitch or the B&W Turnover ball gooseneck hitch are compatible with a rotating pin box like the Reese sidewinder you mentioned. Instead I recommend using the B&W Companion Slider Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3400 which will install into the B&W Turnover ball already installed on your 2017 Ram Short Bed, and will give you 12" of front to back travel for additional clearance when making...

The are meant to be above bed so the rails will sit higher than the frame when you bolt them on.
view full answer... - Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for 2018 Ram 3500My recommendation of a 5th wheel hitch will be dependent on the size of the bed on your 2018 Ram 3500. For a 6-1/2 foot bed I recommend the sliding B&W Patriot # BWRVK3270 or for an 8 foot long bed the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255. To add base rails to your '18 Ram 3500 you will then use the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2605. Finally, if you need a 5th wheel wiring harness I recommend part # C56000.
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... - Best 5th Wheel Hitch Option for a 2020 Ram 3500 with RamBoxThe best option for a fifth wheel hitch for a 2020 Ram 3500 with RamBox is the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3255. The hitch has a thick dual jaw design which grips the kingpin tight thereby providing a smooth ride and a cam-action handle which allows you to uncouple on uneven terrain. In order to use this hitch you'll also need the B&W Custom Installation Kit part # BWRVK2605, the Sidewinder Wedge Kit part # RP74FR, and a rotating pin box like the Reese Sidewinder 5th...
view full answer... - Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a Reese Sidewinder Pin Box on a 2022 Ram 3500 w/ RamboxFor your 2022 Ram 3500, I recommend using the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs item # BWRVK3255. This hitch has an 18,000 lbs capacity and is compatible with B&W Rails item # BWRVK2605 and the Reese Sidewinder item # RP34FR. The hitch height is 16" - 19".

view full answer... - Weight of B&W Patriot 16K 5th Wheel Hitch BWRVK3200If you intend to purchase a 5th wheel trailer that has a Revolution or Sidewinder pivoting pin box for use with your 2013 Ram 2500 short bed then you will not need a sliding-type hitch and can use a fixed hitch of your preference. However, the excellent B&W Companion 20K hitch # BWRVK3500-5W, which mounts using the gooseneck install kit # BWGNRK1313-5W, is not compatible with any type of pivoting pin box. You are correct that B&W makes a serious product. Their 5th wheel hitches are produced...

view full answer... - Which 5th Wheel Bed Rail Mounting Bracket for Demco Autoslide on 2013 Dodge Ram 2500What brand of bed rails do you have? It's recommended to use bed rails and frame brackets from the same manufacturer. If you mix manufacturers of rails and brackets, it's possible to have an unknown weight capacity which isn't a good thing. If you have Curt bed rails, I'd use # CU96FR For Reese, use # RP56011 For Demco, use # DM8552015 B & W doesn't sell their brackets separately, they must be purchased with the bed rails. Their rail/bracket kit is part # BWRVK2605.
