Most Popular Standard - Double Jaw for 1997 Dodge Ram Pickup

Build quality was great and it looks perfect. My only issue is they should supply hard washers and better quality lock washers. 2 of them bent so bad I had to remove them and file the heads to get the huge burrs off to tru to seat another one. If you supply high strength bolts you need to supply a higher grade lock washer it it just tears up the power coat .

I haven’t pull the 5th wheeler yet, but the B&W Companion is a super heavy duty hitch and it looks like it will handle the job. The installation of the hitch went well. The instructions were pretty straight forward. No problems.

This hitch is one fine piece of equipment. Instructions were perfectly detailed and if that's not enough there are videos to guide you. Installed in 4 hours with no problems. Haven't gone anywhere yet but did hook up to camper and was impressed. 2017 Ram 2500 Short Bed

Well built product. Great craftsmanship. Not cheap, but you know why when you see it. Safety is a must, not worth skipping out on a lower grade hitch

We took it to a shop to have it installed. It looks great, and the features to make sure our 5th wheel is securely locked in place give us peace of mind. And it's nice that the rails are made just for our 2016 Ram 3500 long bed. It really is well made and is a brute. Can't wait to get out on the road.

My Curt A16 5th wheel trailer hitch with the R16 slider have turned out to be just what I needed for my truck and trailer. I have a 2017 Ram 2500 short bed pick-up. To start with I had an adapter in the bed of the truck which stands about 2" tall which I had purchased used and reconditioned. With the Slider and the Hitch installed on the adapter and the hitch set at it's lowest setting the unit is the perfect height for my 5th wheel. I pull a Cougar 23MLS 5th wheel. As I stated my Ram has a short bed but with the setup I have and the front of the Cougar being styled as it is, I have never had to use the slider when pulling the 5th wheel or when parking it. Even though I have never needed to use the slide, I'm glad that I have it due to the fact that it makes the set-up the perfect height for my trailer and maybe some day I might get into a spot where I might want to use it. As with any short bed pick-up I do keep a sharp eye on the trailer when backing up to park but so far I have not seen the front of the trailer getting really close to the cab of the pick-up at any time. Between the Hitch on the 5th wheel and the dual jaw of the Curt Hitch I get a really smooth ride going down the road. When I get to my destination I don't feel like I've been on some wild ride going down the road. To date the best Hitch and Trailer that I have ever had. Wish I had some pictures to share but do not have at this time.

Love the B&W hitches, this is my second one. First was the companion to the turnover ball. That one was a little smaller and lighter for installing and removing. This one is with the Ram puck system, a little bigger, heavier and more awkward installing and removing. Mostly leave in now until I fabricate some sort of system. With that being said size and weight is no fault of B&W as you had to work with the Ram puck system. Overall I am happy with the hitch any complaints I have are with Ram.

Love it. I took it out of the box, walked it over to my truck, and set into the openings in my truck bed and turned the handles and put pins in and I didn't even have to adjust it it was perfectly tight. Put the two pieces on to hold the top piece and added a little Grease and it was ready to go. I have a 2017 Ram 3500 4 X4 long bed with airbags and mounted it forward and up all the way. I'm pulling an 18000 pound fifth wheel with flex-air king pin and it rides perfectly. PERFECTLY. I'M very happy with the quality of build and ease of use.

everything came intact in the packages I assembled my hitch tested it . it is what I was looking for. workman ship looks great, will know more when I start drawing trailers this spring.

I bought this hitch just over a year ago and I have been very happy with it. I'm using it to tow an 18k lb toy hauler and it does a great job. I really like the zerk fittings for lubrication, makes it very simple to keep things working smoothly. I really can't think of a single issue that I've had with it. Great hitch and I would certainly recommend Curt products to my friends. etrailer.com was also great to deal with. I got my hitch very quickly after ordering. The only minor issue was that it did not come with pins to attach the hitch to the bed rails. Since I was replacing another hitch I already had a set and didn't worry about it. Overall I am very happy with this purchase.

I was fully expecting a hitch in excess of 100 pounds to show up in a destroyed box. This did not. They had taken the Time and effort to cover the box with an additional layer of cardboard and it must have had a million staples in it. It was almost comical, you will need a crowbar or large screwdriver to get it open. However, when I did finally get the package open I found a perfectly un scratched hitch with no missing parts. I have not pulled with the hitch yet but , it does look like it is going to perform great. I'm using this in a 2006 ram 2500 4x4 short bed pulling a 2015 forest river Salem and it allows 91 degrees of turning due to the clipped corners on the front cap of the trailer. I will be curious to see how long the rubber isolators last before needing replaced and if they are readily available. Also the curt sticker on the hitch was peeling off when I took it out of the box, would be nice to get that replaced.

Mounted this hitch on my flatbed 3500 Ram and the hitch works flawlessly. Pull 44' tri-axle weighing in at 23,000# with ease. Very easy to use and understand, very easy to maintain.

I haven't towed with the hitch yet and can only say that I'm very pleased with the Q25 hitch for my 2017 Ram 3500. The instructions slightly contradict the available assembly video but I was able to unbox, gather tools, assemble and install the hitch in about 45 minutes. Take note, the rear feet are larger than the forward feet, this will aide in determining the drivers side and passenger side frame. They appear identical otherwise. It dropped right in the Ram Puck slots and I only had to adjust one of the feet to make it a little tighter. I can't wait to hook it up and try it out.

The REESE RP30047, 16K double jaws locking hitch, is an excellent 5th wheel hitch. Etrailer.com is a "10" when it comes to marketing and shipping their vendor's products, Their knowledgeable follow-up, helped make my purchase a great on-line experience. It arrived when they said it would.

The product its self is good but there were no installation instructions for it so I had to find them on the net. I was a bit disappointed about that. and it says a 4 hour job, well expect a bit more time.

Tech assistance with questions and ordering process was great. I will use etrailer again and will recommend them to others. Unit is solid and well built, just as advertised. Assembly and installation was straightforward but prepare for lifting help as the base unit is quite heavy. This is a replacement upgrade and I can't wait for weather to get better and go camping.

This is an excellent hitch, easy install on existing mounting rails! Etrailer had the best price by far and provided free shipping! I would highly recommend this company, the only issue I had was with UPS freight, who sat on my shipment for two full weeks before delivering it.

I've used this hitch in an 08 f250 and a 15 ram 2500. All I had to do was purchase a set of frame brackets. The fact this hitch can be easily moved among tricks is great. Easy hitching and unhitching. Easy to use. Easily adjust heights. And the slide option being available is great.

Fast shipping, a couple small spacers were missing from parts, luckily I had somethings laying around that worked. Went together fairly easily with only minor changes to brackets. Couldn’t beat the price here locally.

I have always had bumper pull RVs. This is my first 5th wheel and 5th wheel hitch. It took approx 5-1/2 hrs to install the rails, hitch, and 7-way extension on a '17 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel with Ramboxs. I love the construction and the "feel" of the hitch. Directions were easy to follow. I get the trailer in a couple days, so no comment on towing, but I am not anticipating any complications. Looking forward to using this hitch for years to come.

Quality product. Well built nd great design.

I purchased this hitch one year ago and it is very high quality. I tow a light 21 foot 5th wheel with my RAM 1500 Eco Diesel. I was able to adjust the hitch so that the trailer moved back several inches from the cab that provided better maneuverability compared to my other hitch. I was also able to adjust so that the trailer was perfectly level with the truck. The hitch provides a much tighter connection with the king pin which substantially reduces movement and noise. It was easy to assemble and etrailer did a great job with the entire purchase/shipping experience. Would highly recommend.

The Patroit 5th wheel is a great product & value. The fact the 5th wheel plate lifts off makes it much easier to load & unload. Thanks etrailer

Arrived on time. Item was resold, so no other information available.

Mounted this hitch on my flatbed 3500 Ram and the hitch works flawlessly. Pull 44' tri-axle weighing in at 23,000# with ease. Very easy to use and understand, very easy to maintain.

The hitch itself is great. Mounting in the stock pucks on my Ram 3500 was very simple. The king pin latch is positive when closed and easy to operate. The only drawback is the slider latch. It came undone once and slid back while I was maneuvering. I solved this by using a heavy duty rubber bungee strap to hold it in the locked position. I would recommend this to anyone with a short box truck.

I am very pleased with this hitch, it fit into the prepped bed of my 2016, 2500 Ram perfectly. This is one heavy duty hitch, made very well. The people at B&W definitely know how to make a hitch. It is heavy (weight wise) but I use a overhead winch to lift in and out of my truck bed, works great. I wanted the best and with this hitch I got it.

its OK it Works, Have not lost a trailer yet.

heavy and strong! But terrible design. Forward and back pivots smooth but side to side the fifth wheel moves on a half moon under two pins... first time out I thought I was loosing the trailer. Every corner expect a slam and your truck to shift. Its embarrassing to ride around with a truck that sounds like it’s going to fall apart. Would not recommend.

The hitch is great . The only problem was shipping. When the order arrived the outer box was extremely beat-up. Upon opening, the inner box was so damaged it was not reconizable...the styrofoam was in pieces and the hitch paint was scratched-up. It was treated VERY badly in shipment...I took pictures and was going to forward to you but my phone crashed and that's when I learned my cloud back-up did not include my photos. I needed the hitch immediately for a trip, so I just installed it and chalked-it up as bad luck. With all that said, I owned Reese before but the Curt just seems more substantial

Two boxes del by UPS in good shape for the weight, I installed this myself, while still boxed I lifted into my Ram 2500 to handle easier, installed into my pucks then assembled the rest, went very well, the label they want you to put on driver side you can’t even read, let alone while holding in hand, we will be heading to the mountains of Colorado soon, we’ve always had a bumper pull till now, I’m sure this will work very well, this is 20K double jaw, thank you

Overall a great experience. I love the Curt 20A fifth-wheel hitch. Easy to hook and un-hook my Columbus 320RS. Very quiet ride too. One issue; the hitch arrived in 2 boxes and both were beat up pretty bad. That resulted in some paint damage to the unit which I touched up right away. I highly recommend the hitch and etrailer.com.

Very satisfied with this hitch. Smooth lockup and slides fairly easy. The only issue I had which is not a problem with the hitch itself is that it does sit a little higher than expected. This is in part due to that I am using the Ram factory prep kit, which requires an adapter. I am using Curt's adapter (C16022) which does add about 2-3 inches to the overall height of the hitch. The only other thing which has nothing to do with the functionality of the hitch, but may be something to consider, is how it mates up to the adapter. The rails for the slider stick out awkwardly, which you can see in some of the pictures. Your situation may be different, but overall, this combination works very well together. Not to mention, etrailer's customer service is great. Purchase with confidence.

Have been waiting for a 5th mount for my 2014 RAM that wasn't over priced. The price point is great and the mount is much better than I thought it would be, for quality. I was able to install it in under an hour. The manual that came with it was clear and easy to follow. BTW Ashley , the person I spoke to on the phone realy knew what she was doing and what questions to ask to make sure I bought the correct hitch and would be happy with it. Thank You Ashley!
