Installing Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Round Tube Slider in 2011 Dodge Ram Pickup
Question:
I am interested in the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Round Tube Slider - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs - RP30075 with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - RP50142-58. Will the install kit include everything I need to install the Reese hitch?

Expert Reply:
The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Round Tube Slider, # RP30075 installed with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit, # RP50142-58 is a confirmed fit for the 1500 series 2011 Dodge Ram Pickup and provides all needed hardware for installation. This makes the physical connection for towing a 5th wheel camper but you will also want the 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Plug, # 50-97-410 if you do not already have a wiring harness so as to make electrical connections for indicator lights and activating the brakes.
