Which Custom Fit Curt Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Fits 2014 Ram 2500 Short Bed
Question:
So basically I am looking at buying a 2014 to current Ram 2500. Is the 2014 part number you recommend the same for 2017 models as well? If so it looks like there’s no point in removing the brackets on my 2006 2500 that are installed on truck. Looks like I’ll probably have to buy another kit for 2014 to 2017? Need brackets, bolts and such, and base rails. Any advise?

The Curt rail kit that does fit your 2014 Ram 2500 short bed is the part # C16427-204 or just part # C16427 for the brackets alone. The # C16420 does not fit your truck.
