Question:
I have a Hensley TS3 Trailer Saver serial number 3122 hitch for my fifth wheel. I want to mount it in my 2012 Ram 2500 pickup. Can you tell me what part rail kit and/or any adapters I might need to make this work? Thanks in advance.

From what I was able to find with my research, the Hensley TS3 Trailer Saver 5th Wheel Hitch will fit into industry standard 5th wheel rails. I've attached a picture that shows the mounting hole dimensions on what are considered the industry standard rails. If the spacing on the mounting pins of your TS3 are 10", 20-1/2" or 29" apart, you can use a custom base rail installation kit like the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Dodge Ram # C16420-204 . This kit will install an above bed rail kit in your 2012 Ram 2500 so that you can mount your Hensley TS3 hitch.
I've included an installation video for your 2012 Ram 2500 for you to check out and help you with the installation process. If you find that your TS3 mounts in holes that are a different distance apart, please let me know that distance and I will find you a base rail kit that works.
