B&W Custom 5th Wheel Rails And Mounting Brackets For A 2018 Ram 3500

Question:

I have a 2018 ram that I will be mounting a pro series 5th wheel hitch in. I bought used. There are two pieces that are welded to the frame under the bed for the bolts on the rails in the bed. My truck has no puck system. Can you help me find the brackets I need? I have every thing but those. I have pics if yòu need. Thanks

The biggest piece of information you're going to need to find is weather or not the rails on your 2018 Ram 3500 are apart of a custom kit like the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2605 , or if it is apart of a universal kit like the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30035.

Reason being, is that if you have a custom kit installed on your truck you will need specific frame brackets to that brand of 5th wheel rails, whereas if you had a universal rail kit installed, the frame brackets could be interchanged.

I know that this isn't the most ideal option, however, the simplest & easiest option is to install a new custom kit # BWRVK2605 on your truck.

This kit comes with everything you need for installation on your 2018 Ram 3500, and will work great with your Reese Pro Series 5th wheel hitch.
