Best 5th Wheel Hitch for 2022 Ram 3500 w/ 8 Foot Bed
Question:
I have a 2022 Ram 3500 and I am looking for a 5th wheel hitch. I have an 8 foot bed and do not have any of the factory stuff for towing a 5th wheel.

I have a great 5th Wheel Hitch and an installation kit to match it. It is the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs item # BWRVK3255. B&W makes the best 5th wheel hitches in the business. The Patriot has a rounded two piece jaw that provides 360 degrees of contact and inhibits rattle and movement by securely wrapping around your trailer's king pin. This results in easier hookup and a safer, quieter ride.
You will need the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # BWRVK2605. The Custom-fit brackets mount to existing holes in your Ram's frame minimizes drilling and measuring. This reduces installation time and avoids known obstacles along your truck's frame.
If you would like a 7-Way connector in the bed of your Ram 3500 I recommend the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 7' Long item # C56070.
