5th Wheel Hitch Adapter Plate for a 2016 Ram 3500 with Factory Prep Package

Question:

I am moving up from a 2008 2500hd. To a 3500 Ram with 5th wheel prep. I would like to continue to use my BandW 18k slider in the new truck. Do you have a rail adapter to allow me to use my 2017 Band W hitch?? If not what do you recommend? Current trailer Reflection 29RS loaded 10,850 pds.

In order to use the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider part # BWRVK3270 you have now in the bed of your 2016 Ram 3500 with the factory prep package you are going to want to use the Reese 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package part # RP30154. Please keep in mind that the adapter will add 2" of height to the hitch.

I have attached a review video on the above adapter for you as well.
