Hardware for 2015 Ram 2500 5th Wheel Rails
Question:
Hi. I want to install a Reese 5th wheel hitch in my 2015 Ram 2500. I have the hitch and rails, which I got used. I understand I need mounting bracket kit 50054 to attach to the frame, and hardware kit 58430 to attach the used rails to these brackets. Where do I get the special cylindrical spacers shown in the installation video for my truck that go in the specific square spaces under my bed? These are shown at about 8:30 in the video on your website for this installation. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
The parts you referenced for your 2015 Ram 2500, # RP50054 Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit and # RP58430 Replacement Hardware Kit, are both a fit for the 43 inch Reese rails # RP58058. I contacted the manufacturer and the cylindrical spacers you are referring to are included in the # RP50054 kit.
I'd recommend you double-check the base rails and frame brackets to make sure they are the same manufacturer. It is not recommended to mix brands between the base rails and frame brackets.
