The Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # 16516 is going to be our most affordable 5th wheel hitch you can use in your 2024 Ram 1500. This is a sliding 5th wheel hitch to gain you additional clearance needed for maneuvering your 5th wheel. You will need the Rail Kit # C16307-204 which includes custom fit mounting bracket to attach to your trucks frame.
The Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 41157 will give you a 7-way connection in the bed of your truck. This will protect your trailer wiring and bumper connector from damage due to the wiring being stretched over the tailgate.
