Yes, The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1320 is confirmed to fit your 2022 Ram 2500 short bed with RamBox.

The gooseneck hitch has a simple installation with included custom mounting kit. The truck bed does not have to be removed but a 3-1/2 inch diameter hole must be cut into the bed. The hitch has a powder coated steel that is sturdy and corrosion resistant.

The gooseneck hitch has a gross towing weight up to 30,000 pounds and has a vertical load limit up to 7,500 pounds. I would recommend checking your vehicle's manual to find the proper towing capacity of your 2022 Ram 2500.

I attached an installation video link below.

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…

Answer 6

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.…

Answer 8

It sounds like the purpose of getting the air helper spring would be to counteract the 1 inch compression you're getting in your rear suspension caused by the pin weight of your 5th wheel. If that's the case, I believe that the AirLift 5000…

Answer 9

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…

Answer 11

Yes, anytime you use a hitch extender or reducer like #HR26 you will lose about 1/3 of your hitches overall capacity. However, since you'll be towing a trailer that weighs between 4,500 to 5,000 lbs, the Brophy Hitch Reducer #HR26 will still work…

Hey Luke, thanks for reaching out! The Curt Custom Base Plate Kit #C56JR for your 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty actually matches up with the Blue Ox system, but you can still use this with your Blackhawk2 tow bar if you get the Adapter Kit #RM-031. You…
