Best Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for a 2017 Ram 2500  

Question:

17 ram 2500 I have the factory prep on my truck, no holes or anything in the bed, just welded steel ready. Will this product work with my truck?

Expert Reply:

All of the 2017 Ram 2500 models have the structure built already under the bed to add a gooseneck hitch. Models with the factory prep package would actually have the hitch and the four 5th wheel hitch holes in the bed.

If it were me I would go with the B&W option, # BWGNRK1384, since they are so well made and made right here in the USA. Because Ram had that structure as a part of the vehicle build it makes it a lot easier to add a gooseneck hitch. You can use # 9467 from Draw-Tite, # C60614 from Curt, or # BWGNRK1384 from B&W.

The B&W and Curt hitches are rated for 30,000 pounds gross trailer weight and 7,500 pounds hitch weight. The Draw-Tite is rated for 20,000/5,000 pounds. I have linked install videos on all 3 hitches for you.
