Gooseneck Ball for a 2016 Ram 3500 with 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Factory Prep Package
Question:
I have a 2016 Ram 3500 with the factory installed 5th wheel /gooseneck towing prep group. Where can I find the ball? Is there a ball that goes in the hole or is there something else I need? I am trying to make it a BandW hide a ball.

Expert Reply:
There are a couple of ball kit options that fit the factory 5th wheel and gooseneck prep package on your 2016 Ram 3500. I recommend the Curt kit, # C60618, which is the ball, safety chain tie downs, and a cover for the ball hole when the ball is not being used. (None of balls the fit the OEM system will hide in the ball cavity like the Turnover ball hitches from B&W.)
You can also use the Reese kit # RP30140 which also includes the tie downs and cover but also includes a storage bag. I have included links to video reviews of both kits for you to view.
