Would Reese Fifth Wheel Rail Kit part # RP50142-58 Fit 2012 Ram 1500 and Work with RBW Hitch
Question:
I wish to install a 5th Wheel Hitch into a 2012 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4X4 and was considering using the Reese kit RP50142-58 but I have a RBW hitch. I am not sure if my hitch will work with Reese rails. I was wondering if the kit was specific for Reese rails or if I could use my existing rails with the kit brackets and replace the bolts with the hardware in Kit RP58430. If this Kit will not work with my hitch could you provide me with recommendations for an alternative kit. Thanks

The Reese Rail Kit part # RP50142-58 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2012 Ram 1500 and is compatible with the mounting tabs of your RBW fifth wheel hitch. Your hitch is made to the industry standard dimensions which is what this rail kit is made for as well so the rails would work well for you.
