Products Featured in This Question
Question:
How do I bolt this to my truck? Do you have manufacturers instructions

Expert Reply:
Since the Buyers Products # 3373014981 is a universal fit product, there are no instructions specific to your 2014 Ram 1500. If your 2014 Ram 1500 does not have a structural steel bed, it will need to be bolted to the frame of the truck-which may require drilling. You may be able to use existing holes in the truck's frame, but it's more likely that you will need to drill your own holes for installation. If you've got a flat bed with a structural steel bed you can weld this plate directly onto the bed. During installation you'll want to make sure that the center of the ball is over the rear axle, or slightly forward of it by about 1".
If you're looking for a gooseneck hitch that will provide you with a detailed instruction of the installation process, the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BWGNRK1309 is one of our most popular hitches because of the quality and durability of B&W products. This hitch has a 30000-lbs capacity and allows you to remove the hitch ball to give you a clear truck bed when you're not towing. I've linked an installation video of this hitch on a similar Ram 1500 that you might want to have a look at, as well.
