Installation Kit for Husky 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch and 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 Shortbed

Question:

Hello I recently sold my 2006 gmc crewcab shortbox HD1500, and kept all my hardware for my Husky EZ roller 5th wheel hitch, 16K model.... I purchased a 2005 Dodge crewcab short box diesel, it is a one ton, a 3500 Laramie, my frame brackets from the gmc dont match, do you happen to have the frame mounting brakets I need to mount my Husky EZ roller 16K into the 3500 one ton shortbox dodge? Thank you

For your 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 and Husky 5th wheel trailer hitch you can use custom installation kit # HT31413-686. This kit will fit your short bed model.

If you want a less expensive kit you can use semi-custom kit # RP30035-023. However it will not work on trucks that have overload springs. It also requires more drilling than the custom kit and it will take nearly twice as long to install it compared to the custom kit.
