Expert Reply:
For 5th wheel hitches that fit in industry standard above the bed rails I recommend Reese universal installation kit # RP30035 for your 2001 Dodge Ram. I have included a link to the installation instructions. In the instructions there are specific instructions for various truck models including Ram trucks. I have included a link to a video that shows an example installation but be sure to also look at the instruction link for the full instructions.
