Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2024 Ram 2500 with RamBoxes
Question:
If my 2024 Ram 2500 has the Rambox kit can I still tow a 5th wheel trailer or am I out of luck?

Expert Reply:
You definitely can tow a 5th wheel trailer even with the RamBoxes on your 2024 Ram 2500 - you just have to have the trailer equipped with a pin box with a rotating turret so the pin box doesn't hit the boxes.
The hitch I recommend using is the 20K Reese M5 # RP30928 along with the Custom Base Rail Kit # C16427-204. I really like the M5 because of the single-jaw design on it and how easy it is to operate. For this to work with a rotating pin box you'll need a wedge kit like part # RP44FR which fits the popular Reese Sidewinder pin boxes.
I also recommend installing the Curt Wiring # C56070 so you have easier access to the socket inside your truck bed as opposed to down by the bumper.
