The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2602 is the kit I recommend for your 2020 Ram 2500. This kit does contain the rails as it is recommended not to mix and match the mounting hardware from the rails as the mounting hardware hole position can be different. We do not carry any Husky rails or mounting brackets at this time.

Gen-Y's calculation for pin weight is a safe guess, but isn't the most accurate so the only way you'll get the correct capacity Gen-Y 5th Wheel Pin Box is to fully load the trailer and go to a commercial scale to measure the pin weight.…

Hey Ted, so if you look in the bed of your truck and see 5 holes/pucks that would mean you have the OEM prep. I'd assume if you had it you'd have seen them by now. If you had it you'd only need a ball like the part #C60618. If you…

So for your set up, a 2021 Ram 2500 short bed with the RamBoxes, you will need to use a Sidewinder in order to have the clearance to tow a 5th wheel. The Goose Box doesn't move the pivot point and an offset ball just won't be enough for…
