Recommended Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 Ram 2500 Short Bed with Factory Pucks
Question:
Dear experts. Looking for a great 5th wheel hitch for my new 19 ram 2500. It has the short bed so I assume sliding and it does have the factory puck system. What say you?

The best 5th wheel trailer hitch for your 2019 Ram 2500 with the short bed and factory pucks is the B&W Companion OEM Slider # BWRVK3670. The Companion line is considered by many to be the best hitch on the market, and a lot of that has to do with its 1" thick dual jaws that create an extremely secure connection to the trailer while limiting any rattle and movement at the connection point for a really smooth ride. It's made right here in the USA and its robust gray powder coated steel construction means it's going to likely outlast your new truck.
This particular Companion model is designed to drop right into the factory pucks on your Ram so you can maintain a clean bed when it's removed. The 12" slider travel provides you with the needed cab clearance during tight turns and it features a 20,000 pound towing weight capacity.
I have attached a video review that you can check out along with an image of the hitch mounted so you can see exactly how it will look on your Ram.
