Video Transcript for Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit RP50140 Review

Today we're going to review part number RP50140. This is the Reese quick install custom bracket kit for fifth wheel trailer hitches. This is a custom-fit part number. It is designed to fit the Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 standard and quad-cab, starting in 2003; also the Dodge Ram Megacab 1500, 2500, and 3500, starting in 2006. With any custom part number what I do like to recommend is just to go to our website, use our fit guide. Put in your year and model vehicle and it will tell you if this is the correct part for your application. This part includes the brackets and the hardware to install them. These are custom brackets that will mount beneath your truck bed, provides an attachment points for the fifth wheel rails.

The rails are not included. Those we do sell separately. They use a RP58058 and that part is listed as a related product on this product page. Once these brackets are installed on your frame and then the rails are installed it'll sit in the truck bed and allow installation of a fifth-wheel trailer hitch in your truck bed. These are vehicle-specific brackets. They mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame and because of that it will minimize drilling and measuring time and it'll also cut the installation time in half when compared with the universal bracket systems. This kit does include the brackets and the hardware.

One note, it will not work on the Dodge Ram models with gas engines and overload springs, starting in 2010. The brackets themselves have a nice black powder-coat finish to help resist corrosion. Again, this part includes the four brackets and the hardware to install them. That should do it for the review on part number RP50140, the Reese quick install custom bracket kit for fifth-wheel trailer hitches. .

Five hours to install; which included a half hour searching for the key to the padlock on my spare. E-Trailer linked me to an installation video which really helped. I took my time and measured three times before I drilled the bed. Installation is a lot easier with someone to hold the bolts from the top. I fabricated mounting brackets on my last truck, but these were worth the money and I didn't have to drill the frame! Good design and straight-forward installation. My only issue was the video didn't show one bolt install that secured the driver's side rear bracket to the bottom of the frame. I was going off the video only and wasn't using the written instructions. Make sure you go step by step using both. Also, some parts are clearly for a different application so there will be a few parts left over. My experience with e-trailer was awesome.

hardware pictured in photo. Make sure to keep all spacers/ blocks from rails if removing from another vehicle to use with this kit. Instructions do say some hardware is with the rail kit. All in all a great product. E-trailer has great videos and support.

    Since the 2011 Dodge Ram 3500 Mega-Cab Dually is a short bed you will need to make sure that you will be using a Reese hitch that is a slider hitch.

  • Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Short Bed
    Some of the RBW hitches fit the industry standard rails but not all of them did. Since RBW is no longer in business we cannot contact them with your hitch to know for certain. But what you can do is compare the dimension picture I attached to see if the hitch would fit the industry standard rail kits we offer. You will want to go with a custom fit rail kit designed to specifically fit you truck like the part # RP50140-58 since it will install in much less time and minimize drilling on...

  • Which Installation Kit Is Needed For A 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Short Bed Using A Reese 16K Fifth Wheel
    The Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, # RP50082, that you have referenced is designed for 1999 to 2011 Ford F-250, F-350, F-450 Super Duty, (gas models only for 2011). It is not made to fit on your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Short Bed. So you do not have the correct mounting brackets on your vehicle. As far as the location of the king pin being 2 inches in front of the rear axle, that is an acceptable location because you are still in front of the rear axle, which is important. That is why...

You can verify that you have the same base rails by measuring them. These base rails are 43 inches long.

  • Mounting Brackets for Little Rocker Fifth Wheel Hitch
    We offer Reese mounting brackets, part # RP50140 that are compatible with your 2007 Dodge Ram 2500. I have provided a link to the installation instructions. We do not recommend mixing the RBW bed rails with the Reese frame brackets, as the resulting weight capacity cannot be guaranteed. The Reese bed rails will work with your Little Rocker hitch, so I would recommend going with the Reese frame and bed brackets. The brackets and rails are offered as a set, as part # RP50140-58.

    The frame brackets we offer like part # RP50140 will probably work with your bed rails if they are designed to work with industry standard rails. To be sure, you should use brackets and rails from the same manufacturer to be sure. When you use a brackets and bed rails from two different manufacturers the weight capacity will not be known because they are not tested together. If your hitch will work with industry standard rails I recommend part # RP50140. If you need a wiring harness...

  • Will a Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit from a 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 Fit a 2012 Ram 2500
    A 2012 Dodge Ram 2500 short or long bed will use Reese installation kit # RP50140-58 that you have referenced. A 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 does NOT use the same installation kit so the brackets will be different. You can use the same rails but you will need to replace the brackets using # RP50140. And I also recommend replacing the 10 bolt hardware kit that attaches the rails to the brackets using kit # RP58430.

The latter installs on the outside of the frame making it easier to access. If you need the base rails as well you can get the entire kit using # RP50140-58 or # RP56011-53.

    The above the bed rails can be reused but the underbed brackets # RP50082 will not fit a 2012 Dodge Ram. Your Ram requires installation brackets # RP50140.

  • Fifth Wheel Solution for 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 Short Bed with B and W Gooseneck Hitch Installed
    So you'll have a couple options. Ideally you go with a Companion Slider hitch part # BWRVK3400 which will fit directly to the B and W Turnoverball hitch you have installed in the bed of your truck. This will basically give you the nicest hitch around and the ability to still tow a gooseneck trailer if you need to. Otherwise the Turnoverball has to get removed from your truck to install a set of fifth wheel rails. To pick out the correct brackets I'd need to know the brand of rails that...
