Recommended Curt Gooseneck Hitch For 2017 Ram Factory Rail Kit and Offset Coupler
Question:
I have a 17 ram 2500 with puck system. Does anyone make a gooseneck offset ball that will work on my truck? Ex:Curt 4inch Offset Ball for Double-Lock Gooseneck Hitch Item # C602

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Ram 2500, there is not a specific offset ball like you are seeking for the factory gooseneck. I recommend the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loops Kit for Ram Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # C60618 for your truck and then you can use an offset on your coupler like the B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler # BWTEXA4200. This coupler will help with clearance far more than the offset ball would.
You may also be interested in the wiring harness # 50-97-410 to give you a second 7-way connection in the bed of your truck for a cleaner look and easier connection.
