Does B&W Gooseneck Hitch Fit 2015 Dodge Ram 1500 with 5-1/2 Foot Bed and Air Suspension
Question:
Ordered a 2015 Ram 1500 crew cab with the 64inch bed. One of the options is the four corner air suspension. Wanted to install a BandW gooseneck but I saw your video indicating BandW 1309 will not work with the air suspension. Is this true with the 2015 Ram 1500? Thanks

I spoke with my contact at B&W and she said their # BWGNRK1309 Turnover Ball gooseneck hitch is compatible with your 2015 Dodge Ram Pickup 1500 short bed with air suspension though you'll need to re-route one of the air lines as discussed in part 5 on the instructions.
If you find you need additional clearance between the trailer and the rear bumper of the truck, or between the front of the trailer and the rear of the truck cab, B&W offers a gooseneck ball wit a 4 inch offset, part # BWGNXA4685 .
I've linked you to some product description videos for the hitch and the offset gooseneck ball.
