I just installed this hitch and I didn't take out the heat shield or the exhaust. My advice is take them out. It's time well spent.

It’s definitely a bit more work. But the added work space makes it much easier.

Nice work! I had the same kit with the 5th wheel light brake kit plug installed in my Ram 2500 for a total of $1000. Best $1000 I ever spent on that truck.

Looks like you have air ride too on your Rambox truck. We're there any components of the air system that had to be moved during install at all or is there plenty of room?

Can this be used if u have the factory 5th wheel prep installed i want a gooseneck as well as the 5th wheel so I can tow what ever trailer I need to without modding the trailers
@KozarBen3 жыл бұрын
I don’t know about that, but I do know B and W makes a fifth wheel plate that fits right down into this square hole gooseneck receiver, and you don’t need the factory prep to pull both.

Sad how most of these ram 2500 with the diesel only have 2200 pounds of payload. That’s only 340 more then my 1/2 ton.

Can you use their companion fifth wheel hitch for towing with the ramboxes? Or is there not enough clearance?

What kind of trailer do you pull with your trucks. I have the ram box on my 2017 short bed. I wonder if I can pull a horse trailer with it. Also are your trucks short bed

Its been great, we use it to move some big equipment around. And so far it has held up very well.

Hows the gooseneck on your trailer clear the bed sides? Any clearance issue while turning??
@motoxcal2494 жыл бұрын
There is a roughly a 16 inch gap on the sides. So far it has been plenty of space for every day use.
