2014 Ram 2500 5th Wheel Hitch Install Kit

Question:

Im trying to find out if anyone is making a 5th wheel hitch for the 2014 Ram 2500. I already have the slider hitch, now I just need the portion that connects to the frame, and the rails for the bed. If so who. If not any idea when?

Curt offers a fifth wheel install kit for your truck, part # C16427-204. This kit is compatible with your truck unless it has the Ramboxes. Fifth wheel towing with a Ram truck that is equipped with the Rambox option is not a recommended practice. The Ramboxes make the interior of the bed much narrower than the standard bed, which means that the fifth wheel pin box can strike the bed side during turns. Theoretically, using a Reese Sidewinder (see provided FAQ link) and a standard hitch will raise things up enough so there will be nothing hitting, but because this has NOT been tested, neither we nor Reese can recommend it.

The install kit is compatible with 5th wheel hitches from Reese, Draw-Tite, Valley, Curt and Husky that use industry standard bed rails.
