• Recommended Extra Long Ball Mount For 2001 Ram 3500 With 11.5 Lance Camper
  For your 2001 Ram 3500 Dually 4x4 with Lance 11.5 camper, I recommend the Brophy Ball Mount # BM20. This extra long ball mount will allow you to put the hitch ball center 13-1/4 inches from the center of the hitch pin hole on your trailer hitch receiver. This is rated for 10,000 lbs. I recommend the # 63845 for a 2 inch hitch ball or # 19260 for a 1-7/8 inch ball. If you need more length than the extra long ball mount, you may consider the Curt Extender for 2" Receivers -18" Long #...

• Will Reese Titan Hitch Extender Work with 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 with Factory 2-1/2 Inch Receiver
  For your 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 with factory 2-1/2 inch receiver, the Hitch Box Extension and Reducer for Titan 2-1/2" Trailer Hitches, 24" - 34" Long # RP45292 will work great for you without any weight distribution needed. You may want to add a wiring extension like the 7-Way Connector 7' Loop # 20027 which can be shortened for your application or the TorkLift Wiring Harness Extension for 36" SuperTruss Hitch Extender - 7-Way RV # TLW6036 which already fits. You may also want to...

• Adding a 7-Way Trailer Connector to a 2006 Dodge Ram
  It sounds like your truck has a 4-way trailer connector already so you can convert it to a 7-way using our # ETBC7 kit. This kit includes the 7-way connecto and all the wiring you need. I've linked a video of the install on a 2001 Ram which will be the same process as on your 2006 since it's a universal install. If you'd like to add a 7-way to the bed of your truck you can then use part # 20027 after you have a 7-way at the bumper. It plugs into the connector at the bumper and makes...

• Availability of 7-Way Connector Shorter than 7 Feet
  I have some options for you, but unfortunately I could not find a 7-Way 5th wheel/gooseneck wiring Connector Loop shorter than the Draw-Tite # 20027. I recommend simply looping up any excess and wrapping a zip tie # DW05727-25 around it to adjust it to a shorter length. If your tow vehicle has a 7-way at the bumper that uses a US-Style car connector, another option is to install a 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Harness in line by using the Curt # C56000. This will provide you with a 7-way connection...

• Best Wiring Options for Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer
  You have a few options when it comes to 5th wheel wiring for your truck. Most trucks come with factory 7-way trailer connectors at the bumper. If your truck has a factory 7-way, then I recommend installing a 5th wheel wiring harness like the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel Harness, # 41157. In-bed harnesses provide a quick and easy connection point in the bed, so you don't have to modify the existing trailer harness to make it longer or use an extension. This harness has a 90-degree plug,...

• Recommended Wiring Harness for Towing 5th-Wheel Trailer Behind 2012 Ford F-250
  I think you may be looking for something like the Draw-Tite 7-Way Connector 7 Ft Loop # 20027. This extension will allow you to run the harness under the tailgate like you mentioned in your question. However, I do not recommend doing this as running the wires under the tailgate will leave them exposed and possibly lead to them being damaged. I instead recommend using the Pollak 5th Wheel/Gooseneck T-Connector with 7-Pole # PK11893-11932. This socket will plug into the OEM harness and...

• Can New 12 and 14 Gauge Wire be Used with Existing 10 and 12 Gauge Wiring on Gooseneck Trailer
  The slight difference in wire gauge between the new part and the existing wiring will be fine. There isn't enough voltage or amperage, to cause any problems. It would be a different story if we were talking about more voltage and/or amperage. But in this case, no worries with the slightly smaller gauge wire.

• Availability of 7-Way Extension to Tow RV with Tow Vehicle.
  We do have some extension cords that connect a 7-Way male and 7-Way female together. The shortest one we have is 7' long and is the Tow Ready part # 20027. Using this extension will give you a lot of extra wiring so you may just be interested in using a different 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector like part # H20044 which is 6' long on your trailer side. I have attached an installation video as well as a chart that shows which wires are for which function that you can reference for...

  All of the 5th wheel and gooseneck in-bed trailer wiring extensions are either 7 feet long, like # 20027, or 9 feet long. A shorter one is not available.

• Truck Bed 5th Wheel Trailer Wiring for a 1998 Chevy C/K Series Pick-up Truck
  On your 1998 Chevy C/K Pick-up truck, the center of the 5th wheel trailer hitch jaw should be 1-1/2 inches forward of the center of the rear axle. If you measure from that point back to the trailer connector, that will be the measurement you need. If you determine that you need an extension, I recommend the 7-Way Connector, # 20027. You can plug one end into the 7-Way at the back of the vehicle, route the wire under the truck and up inside a side rail in the bed, and then mount the other...

  When installing the underbed 5th wheel installation kit # RP30073 the holes for the pucks need to be 2-1/2 inches as indicated in the instructions that I have linked for you. You will need a 2-1/2 inch hole saw to make the cuts.

  If the 7-way at the rear of your truck has round connectors like in the picture that I attached you could use the # 41157 as an easy way to splice in a 7-way that you could then mount near the wheel well of your truck bed for the camper of your truck to use.

• Availability of an Adapter to Use the Titan Hitch Extender # RP45292 with a 2 Inch Hitch
  I cannot recommend either of the situations that you mentioned for safety reasons. If you were to make a reducer for the Titan Hitch Box Extension for 2-1/2 inch Trailer Hitches, 24-34 inches, item # RP45292, it would lower the weight carrying capacity of the hitch and the extension and could cause an unsafe towing condition. A solid steel bar while it seems very sturdy would most likely have less weight carrying capacity than a square tube extension like the Titan extension. The best...

• Adding In-Bed 5th Wheel Trailer Wiring on a 2005 Ford F-150 with Factory 4-Way
  On your 2005 Ford F-150 with the 4-Way trailer wiring harness, if the harness is from the factory it will be fairly easy to add in-bed 5th wheel trailer wiring. Here is what you need to do. First, follow the factory 4-Way wiring forward on the under side of the truck until you find the connector it plugs into. The forward side of this connection point has more wires running into it then go out to the 4-Way. Using a circuit tester like # 3808, find the functions of each of the wires on...

• Adding In-Bed Trailer Wiring in a 1994 Dodge Ram for a Camper
  To add in-bed wiring for your truck bed camper I would need to know what type of connector the camper requires. A lot of campers have unique wiring connectors but I can tell you how to get some wiring in the bed and add a 7-Way blade style connector. You will start by installing a 4-Way (unless the truck already has one) at the back of the vehicle. Use # C55317 that you have referenced. Then you will need to install # ETBC7 which will provide a 7-Way and 4-Way at the back of the truck....

You will need an installation kit, fifth wheel hitch, wiring, and since you have such a short truck bed you will need to use a Sidewinder coupler.
