Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2024 Ram 2500 Long Bed w/ the Factory Puck System
Question:
I have a 2024 Ram 2500 and I am looking for a 5th wheel hitch for it but there's nothing on your website. I have the factory puck system and the longer 8 foot bed. Did something change or can I use one recommended for a 2023?

Nothing changed between the 2023 and 2024 factory puck systems. For your 2024 Ram 2500 with the long bed and factory puck system, I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch item # BWRVK3600. This 5th wheel hitch mounts directly to the puck system for easy installation and removal. It has a 25,000 lbs capacity.
I really like B&W's hitches because of the reliability and the Companion's 1" thick dual jaws will give you a 360-degree jaw to kingpin contact. This system minimizes the chucking, jarring and noise that can occur when towing a 5th wheel trailer. This not only provides a more secure connection but also a quieter more comfortable towing experience.
I have linked an installation and review video below along with a couple of pictures that will show you what the Companion looks like installed.
Don't forget your lube plate. The Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # 16721 will prevent scratches on your 5th wheel's skid plate and ease trailer hookup.
