Can a Reese Signature Series be Used with a Ram 2500
Question:
Does this part fit a 2020 Ram 2500 puck system?

Expert Reply:
The Signature Series Replacement Foot Assembly Kit, part # 58238, is a replacement foot assembly for the older Reese Signature Series 5th wheel hitches.
Unfortunately, none of these were compatible with the Ram OEM puck systems because the spacing for Rams is different than for Ford's (which the Signature Series fits).
As such, this foot assembly kit will not get the Signature Series to work with the 2020 Ram 2500 (or any other Ram)'s puck system.
The only recourse for a Ram owner is to use a different hitch. For yours with a 6-1/2 foot bed, we have the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package, part # BWRVK3670. This sliding hitch is of exceptional quality and is quiet and secure. I've linked to a video review of this hitch for your consideration.
