Curt Fifth Wheel Q24 Hitch and Install Rail Kit Recommendation for 2014 Ram 3500 without Hitch Prep
Question:
Im taking my q24 out of my 2012 ram 3500. It will be installed in a 2014 ram 3500. I have the bed rails and all hard ware. What will I need if anything to install it.

Helpful Expert Reply:
As long as your new 2014 Ram 3500 doesn't have the hitch prep package the Curt Install Kit part # C16420-204 would be the correct rail kit for your truck and it would work well with the Curt Q24 Hitch part # C16245 or the slider version of this hitch # C16546 that you have.
I attached an install video for the rail kit for you to check out as well.
