Hitch Rails For Installing Curt Crosswing 5TH Wheel Hitch In a 2019 Ram 2500 Short Bed OEM Prep/Puck
Question:
it sounds like the Curt Crosswing cannot install in any OEM 5th wheel setup puck kits. I have a 2019 RAM 2500 short bed. What above bed rail system do you recommend for this truck. I viewed the Demco which looks pretty good and appears to be compatible.

Expert Reply:
I do prefer the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter # DM6099 with its fully welded design for your 2019 Ram 2500 with the factory prep/puck system. This will allow you to mount the Curt Crosswing Lightweight 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C86JR in your bed.
Since you do have the short bed remember that you may not be able to make full jackknife turns without your cab hitting the 5th wheel. A Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550035 is the best option as it will automatically move the camper further from your cab as you turn moving the hitch back up to 14".
