How to Get Replacement Mounting Hardware for a Trailer Hitch on a 2020 Ram 2500

Question:

I have questions about my hitch, i traded my truck in and took out the hit when i did but i lost all the bolts and shims.... i have all the brackets but can i purchase just the bolts? Trying to reinstall before i transfer to a new duty station. Thank you in advance.

David, 'm not sure what hitch you have so I can't guarantee that we have replacement hardware but typically when this comes up you can use # RHK go get a complete replacement hardware kit.

You'd just need to enter the hitch's item number in the box and we'll get the replacement hardware for you, but if It's a hitch we don't carry we aren't going to be able to help.

If you let me know below what you have I'd be happy to cross check to see if we can help you out.

Bryce, that makes sense... its an 18K B&W hitch with the 2020 Ram 2500 easy mount kit for the brackets and rails item # RP50054-58. Im guessing a universal hardware kit will get the job done.

@David Ah, I see you were talking about a 5th wheel. Okay so what I said still applies for the most part but # RHK isn't going to work. That is more for standard trailer hitches not 5th wheel hitches. For your B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 you can just use the B&W Custom Mounting Brackets for Patriot 5th Wheel Above Bed Base Rails # BWRVR2602 to just replace the mounting brackets and hardware. Unfortunately just the bolts by themselves aren't available. It doesn't sound like it, but if you also needed the rails you'd want the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2602 instead.
