Saftey Chain Tie Downs For A 2017 Ram 3500
Question:
I am looking to buy the BWGNRK1314. I do not want to drill the 4 small holes in the bed for the safety chain. Im already set up with a 5th wheel so have the mounting holes for that. I would like to buy the safety chain mounts that come with the BWGNXA2062 or something that will plug into the existing 5th wheel hitch holes. What is your suggestion? thank you

Expert Reply:
If your 2017 Ram 3500 has the OEM prep package which allows for a fifth wheel to mount in the factory holes then you are also going to have the hole for the goose neck which wouldn't require the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs Item # BWGNRK1314. You would just need the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit for Ram Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Item # BWGNXA2062.
If you truck has an after market under bed kit for the fifth wheel hitch and you are wanting the safety chain tie downs, you would have to determine what hitch you have to get safety chain tie downs that are compatible.
