Question:
I have a 2022 Ram 2500. It has an 8 foot clean bed. I need to get a gooseneck hitch and a suspension enhancement system. Can you help me out with what will work in my truck?

For your 2022 Ram 2500 with the 8' bed and no prep package I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1320. This hitch is sourced and made in the USA and will give you the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer. And when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get full bed access and a clean appearance.
For a suspension enhancement system I recommend the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs # SSR-312-54. These are made in the USA, are maintenance-free because there is no tubing to run or air pressure to monitor like with air springs. They have a simple, no-drill installation. The helper springs upgrade your vehicle's rear suspension for improved driver control and comfort. They help keep your vehicle level when you're towing or hauling a heavy load and help to absorb bumps and shocks.
To make hooking up your trailer wiring easier I recommend the Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 50-97-410. This is going to allow you to move your 7-way connector up into the bed of your truck to make hooking up your wiring easier while retaining use of your factory 7-way at the back of you Ram.
