Recommended Under-bed Mount 5th Wheel Slider Hitch for 2022 Ram 2500 Without Factory Puck System
Question:
Hi Is there a puck system available for a 2022 ram 2500 short bed. Looking to install a auto slide 5th wheel hitch. Thanks

For a 2022 Ram 2500 without the factory installed puck system, our best option for an under-bed mount hitch is the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion, # BWGNRK1320-5W and the 20K B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider, # BWRVK3400-5W. This is a slider type but not an auto-slide. I like the 1" thick jaws on the Companion, these are precision machined to provide a tight, sturdy connection and securely wrap around your trailer's king pin. The cam-action latching handle helps prevent binding, is simple to release, even on unlevel terrain. The B&W is noted as having a superior powder coating and is made in USA with materials sourced from the USA too.
