B & W Patriot 5th Wheel Hitch is Compatible with a Curt Custom Universal Kit
Question:
Year 2019 Make Ram Model 2500 6.5 foot bed W/out factory prep I might have made a mistake. I just ordered this curt rail kit from you guys last night. While laying in bed worrying about if I made the right decision or not, the thought occurred to me. “What if my hitch doesn’t work with this item?” As soon as I woke up I checked the description and my hitch manufacturer isn’t listed with the others. I have the BandW patriot 18k lb hitch. I thought the rails were pretty standard and this was my mistake. Could you tell me if I need to purchase different rails and which ones I need? Thank you.
