Expert Reply:
If your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel has an 8-foot bed you will use B and W 5th wheel # BWRVK3500-5W
along with Installation Kit # BWGNRK1313-5W. This hitch carries a 20K rating.
If your Ram has the 6-foot bed with Mega Cab you will instead use hitch # BWRVK3400-5W and installation kit # BWGNRK1308-5W. If you have the 6-foot bed without Mega Cab you will use the same hitch but you'll need instead install kit # BWGNRK1313-5W. I have linked an install video for your reference.
