Question:
Im looking at buying a used Reese 16K signature 5th wheel hitch. It comes with the rails and install kit for a GM truck. What do I need to intall it on a 2002 dodge Ram 2500, and do you carry it? I have a B and W turnover gooseneck hitch installed. Will the mounting interfere with each other?

Expert Reply:
The correct underbed installation kit for your 2002 Dodge Ram would be the Draw-Tite Underbed Installation Kit # RP30069. Once this kit is installed you would be able to install the 16k Signature Series 5th Wheel Hitch in your truck bed.
I attached installation instructions for you to check out also.
You will need to remove your B and W gooseneck hitch before you can install this kit as they both install in the same area. Once you have the underbed kit installed you could use a Reese Elite Series Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # RP30845 if you need to pull a gooseneck trailer.
