Does 2018 Ram 2500 Short Bed Rail Kit Need Slider Hitch if Trailer Has Mor/Ryde Orbital Pin Box
Question:
I am buying a 5th wheel that I will towing with a 2018 RAM 2500HD with a 6’4” bed. The trailer has a MORryde Orbital Pin box installed so my question is, did I need a slider hitch for sharp turns? Thanks

Expert Reply:
You do not need a slider hitch as the MORryde Orbital Pin box will provide you with all of the turning clearance you'd need. So the B and Companion hitch part # BWRVK3600 that you referenced would be a perfect solution as it is a fixed hitch like you need and is considered by many to be the best hitch you can get!
I attached a review video for the hitch for you to check out as well.
