Recommended 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for 2019 Ram 3500 with OEM Puck System
Question:
Will be getting a 2019 Ram 3500 soon with the in bed tow package puck system. I have heard good thinks about the B&W hitches but which one do I need? So i have already decided on the companion hitch but is there any advantage of one goose ball type over the other puck system? If it makes any difference our next trailer will be in the 18,000lb GVWR range.

For your 2019 Ram 3500 DRW with OEM Prep Package, (8' bed) I highly recommend the B&W OEM Companion 5th Wheel Hitch, # BWRVK3600 as it is designed with 1" thick dual jaws that completely surround the trailer king pin and constructed with superior quality in its fit and finish. This Made in the USA hitch option creates a secure connection between your tow vehicle and RV providing for a really smooth ride during travel, minimal chucking and clunking. Its cam-action handle is another feature that sets it apart from most others, as it's specifically designed to prevent binding and can easily be released, even when you're parked on unlevel ground.
The Companion's heavy-duty powder coated steel construction is built to last (it sports a limited lifetime warranty) and it is made right here in the USA. Its 25,000 pound towing weight capacity also matches the highest available on a hitch designed to drop into the factory pucks on your Ram.
