Best Gooseneck Hitch for 2008 Ram 2500 with 8 Foot Long Bed
Question:
I have a 2008 ram 2500 4wd gas powered truck with single cab and 8 ft bed. I tow a 30 ft dual wheel tandem axle trailer with a heavier truck but may at some point want or need to use the dodge. Which hitch would you recommend for this application?

It sounds like you're trying to add a gooseneck hitch to your 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 with an 8-ft bed, and we have just what you're looking for. I recommend using the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1313, which is custom fit for your truck. The B&W Turnoverball is one of our highest reviewed gooseneck setups because of the high quality B&W craftsmanship and durability, which is backed up by their lifetime warranty. This gooseneck hitch is also compatible with B&W 5th Wheel hitches, so it provides you with the flexibility to be used for that in the future if you ever need to tow a 5th wheel trailer.
I've linked a demo and installation video of this hitch on a similar Dodge truck that you might find helpful if you want to install this yourself, or just get some more information on it and see how it works.
