• Why Does the Bargman 5th Wheel Wiring Connector have 10 Pins but only 7 are Used
  As long as you are installing the 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 51-97-411 on one of the vehicles that is a confirmed fit for you should be fine. To see if this is the correct product for you scroll down on the product page to see if this is confirmed fit for your vehicle.

• Troubleshooting Trailer Connector on 2003 Dodge Ram 3500
  When you say that everything works fine, are you referring to the lights on the truck, or the lights on a trailer when its plugged in? If the problem is with the lights on the trailer, unplug the trailer and use a circuit tester like part # 40376 on the trailer connector as each lighting function is activated. This will help determine if the wiring problem is on the truck or in the wiring on the trailer. If you find the problem is on the vehicle wiring, the easiest course of action...

• Gooseneck/5th Wheel Trailer Wiring for the Bed of a 2006 Dodge Ram 3500
  I recommend going with a gooseneck wiring harness that has a 90 degree bend. The reason for this is because it makes installation easier because on some trucks there isn't a lot of space between the inner and outer bed side walls. Having an extra ground wire is not a bad thing. It helps ensure that the harness has a good ground connection. With that said you can't really go wrong with Bargman harness # 51-97-411. I have linked a video to the right that shows how it installs. For a...

• Troubleshooting Brake Controller that Does Not Work at Trailer Connector
  If the brake output is active at the back of the controller but then not active at the 7-way connector that would indicate you have a short on that circuit somewhere between the two. It could be as simple as corrosion on the pins of the 7-way or even at the back but if not you'd have to trace the wiring to find the short and fix as needed. I attached a help article on troubleshooting brake controller installs for you to check out as well.

• Trailer Running Lights Come On when Horse Trailer is Connected to Shore Power or Using Battery
  It sounds like the trailer running light circuit is somehow connected with the 110/12 volt transfer switch which also probably is able to charge the trailer battery. You can follow the running light wire from the front of the trailer and see where all it goes to determine if that is what is going on. There could also be some sort of back feed short. Make sure that the trailer connectors are clean and free of corrosion inside and out and that all of the grounds, including the ones for...

• Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch Installation Kit for 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab

• Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch for Towing a GVWR 16,250 lb Trailer with a 2006 Ram 3500 Short Bed
  Typically we recommend going with a 5th wheel hitch that is rated for about 2,000 lbs more than what the GVWR of your trailer is. That way if you were to totally max out the weight of your trailer your hitch isn't maxed out as well. Since your 2006 Ram 3500 is a short bed you will want to look into getting a sliding 5th wheel hitch to avoid trailer-to-cab contact when taking sharp turns. The best option for you to go with would be the Demco Hijacker Autosliding 5th Wheel Hitch. This...

The air spring assemblies install on the outboard side of the side of the truck frame, as would the frame mounting brackets for a gooseneck or fifth wheel hitch. Your best bet would be to replace your existing air bags with a solution that mounts to the bottom of the frame members, replacing the factory bump stop like the Timbren...
