Parts Needed To Make 5th Wheel for 2008 Ford F250 Fit 2012 Ram 2500
Question:
bought a 5th wheel hitch RP30047A, with a RP50024 Pro Slider. It has a RP30035 base mounting kit. It was in a 2008 Ford F250. I have a 2012 Ram 2500, 4x4 SLT Mega Cab short bed. My truck has had no modifications and therefor I believe no overload springs. It has the towing package and integrated trailer brakes. I am trying to find out which bracket I need? Also I assume I need new bolts for the mounting kit too?
