Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2018 Ram with Factory Puck System
Question:
I have a 2018 Dodge Ram with a 6 1/2 bed. I bought the truck and it has a bed liner and the puck system installed. I will be purchasing a 5th wheel and need to know the right hitch to purchase and what other items that I will need to tow. The 5th wheel is a Forest River Sabre and it is not the gooseneck. Thank you.

From the information you provided it sounds like you are needing a sliding 5th wheel hitch for the factory puck system in your 2018 Ram. For that I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3670. This hitch is sourced and made in the USA, has a limited lifetime warranty and built in slider system to help eliminate clearance concerns during slow-speed turns.
The B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider for Ram Towing Prep Package # BWRVK3670 will drop into the factory puck system of your 2018 Ram, so there is no need for an adapter.
