Fitment of Reese Sidewinder and 5th Wheel Hitch With Ram Box on 2020 Ram 2500
Question:
Will a sidewinder and a Ram M30 hitch combo work with ram boxes?

Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you, but unfortunately the Mopar (Curt) 5th wheel hitches are no longer compatible with sidewinders. Instead, I recommend Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Single Jaw - 20,000 lbs, # RP30928, Adapter Rails # RP30154, and Wedge # RP44FR. This setup will allow your 2020 Ram 2500 with prep package to be compatible with the Reese Sidewinder # RP34FR you were looking at.
You linked to the Reese Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin, # RP34FR. This will replace Lippert 0719, 1621 and 1621HD, Fabex 663 and 665, M&M 663 and 665, along with Lippert 1716, 1116, and 0115 pin boxes. The Lippert 1716, 1116, and 0115 pin boxes do require the Spacer Kit # RP97FR.
