Fifth Wheel Hitch and Air Bag Kit Recommendation for 2018 Ram 2500 Short Bed with Factory Rail Kit

For my 2018 Ram 2500 short bed I want a fifth wheel hitch to fit the factory rail kit and I also want an air bag kit too.

Expert Reply:
The best fifth wheel hitch we offer for your 2018 Ram 2500 with the factory rail kit is the B and W Companion part # BWRVK3670 which is a slider hitch confirmed as a fit for your truck's rail kit. The slider moves back so that you can have the needed clearance to make a tight turn.
For an air bag kit then we have the Firestone part # F2706 which is a confirmed fit and will work great. For a compressor kit to make inflating the bags easy and convenient we have the Air Command kit part # F2097.
