Will B and W Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch Fit 2006 Dodge Ram with Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
I have a 2006 ram3500 dual that I pull a big Tex 3 car hauler on a BnW goose neck. Would the companion 20,000 work for me? The truck is not 4 wheel drive. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Since you have a B and W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch installed in your 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 a Companion Fifth Wheel Hitch will fit your truck and work well as long as the trailer you plan to tow weighs less than 20,000 lbs.
For that you would want part # BWRVK3500 for if you have a long bed truck or part # BWRVK3400 for if you have a short bed truck and need a slider hitch.

I have a 2006 Ram 2500 short bed. Will the B&W Companion hitch fit in my truck? Trying to avoid rails remaining in the bed Patriot. Trying to decide between this setup and the Anderson. Also, plan on purchasing a newer Ram in a few years so would like to use this hitch on the new truck.
