Does Fifth Wheel Rail Kit and Hitch part # C16116 Fit 2001 Dodge Ram 2500

Question:

Would I need anything other than what comes in the kit to install item C16116 in a 2001 Dodge ram 2500 single cab with 8ft bed

The Curt fifth wheel and rail kit part # C16116 that you referenced will fit your 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 long bed. The L-bracket style universal rails are compatible with your truck. All the needed hardware comes with this.

For a 7-way to install in the bed of your truck to make connecting your trailer lights easier you would want the part # 41157. Most 7-ways will be at the rear of the truck near the bumper which doesn't work will with fifth wheel hitches. This kit installs in line with the 7-way at the rear of your truck and gives you a second one to install in the bed.
