Length of 90 Degree Adapter Head on Fifth Wheel/Gooseneck Wiring Harness for 2018 Ram 1500
Question:
I am interested in your 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness with 7-Pole Plug, especially the Hopkins # 41157 and Bargman # 50-97-410 models. How much distance behind the installation is required? IE: where the 90-degree adapter is located.
asked by: Kurt H
Expert Reply:
There is not a distance necessary to have behind the adapters; they simply need to fit your truck, and both adapters are confirmed fits for your 2018 Ram 1500.
For reference, I went to the warehouse to take some measurements, and the 90-degree adapter head of the Hopkins Endurance # 41157 is roughly 4-1/4" long, while the Bargman # 50-97-410 adapter head also measures roughly 4-1/4".
I have added links to video reviews of both harnesses for you to take a look at.
