How to Use a Hensley TS3 Air Ride 5th Wheel Hitch 152 on a Ram 3500 with the Prep Package
Question:
I have a Hensley TS3 currently mounted on Reese standard rails. I will be purchasing a new Ram 3500 with the factory puck system. Will the TS3 fit the DM6099

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can choose from either the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter part # DM6099 or the Reese 5th Wheel Rail Adapter part # RP30154 to use the Hensley TS3 Air Ride 5th Wheel Hitch 152 on a Ram 3500 with the prep package. The main difference between them is that the Reese adapter will add 2" of height and has a lifetime warranty whereas the Demco adapter will add 1-3/8" of height and has a five year warranty. They both have a 25,000 lb weight capacity. I personally like the Reese adapter a bit better as it is more cost effective and has a better warranty but the choice is up to you.
I have attached review videos of each option for you as well.
