Recommended 5th Wheel Bed Rails for 2003 Dodge Ram Compatible with Power Pull Glider by Valley
Question:
I would like to find out what I need to install a Power Pull Glider 16k by Valley into a 2003 Dodge Ram short box quad cab. I also have air bags installed by Les Schwab that I would like to continue to use. Thank you

For your 2003 Dodge Ram, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP50140-58. The custom installation brackets will require no drilling as they utilize holes in the frame from the manufacturer. These rails will work very well with your Valley Power Pull Glider 16K hitch.
Most air spring systems are compatible with in-bed hitches on your 2003 Dodge Ram, so you shouldn't have an issue there. I do recommend adding the Hopkins wiring harness # HM42137 to add a second 7-way to the bed of your truck for easy connection access and a cleaner look.
