Is There a 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2020 Ram 2500 That Uses the Factory Bed Mounts
Question:
does anyone make a fifth whl hitch that mounts directly into the factory hard points in truck bed with the fifth wheel tow package? I see many hitches but they all appear to need rails installed which I am trying to avoid. Thank you

Yes, there are several fifth wheel hitches for a 2020 Ram 2500 6-1/2' Bed with OEM Prep Package that will mount using the integrated puck system. That said, most consist of a standard hitch base and adapter which takes additional time for installation and adds extra weights to the mix. Therefore, I recommend going with one where the adapter is integrated into the hitch base, the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # BWRVK3670 which is the only option with this feature.
The B&W Companion is actually considered one of the best fifth wheel hitches on the market due to its heavy duty, robust construction and features such as a dual jaws which aids in kingpin security and easily removable head which helps save your back when installing and removing.
