Pin boxes such as the Reese Revolution # RP34FR will have a 90 degree turning clearance when hooked up to a fixed hitch installed in your 2013 Ram 2500 6 foot bed with the ram boxes closed. However, since the vertical clearance of the open Ram boxes exceeds 6 inches, you may not be able to fully open the boxes while your 5th wheel trailer is hooked up. The revolution pin boxes are designed to move the pivot point back 22 inches allowing for more turning radius but do not increase the distance from the top of your truck bed to your trailer.
