The Air Lift Air Helper Spring Cradles # AL59DQ are not going to be compatible with the Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL57589 on your 2021 Ram 2500. This is due to the 7500 springs being larger in diameter than the 5000 springs. So you would need to use the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs # AL88289 on your truck. Do note the cradles will add 0.83" to the height of the air springs. You will need to determine how much rear lift was added to... view full answer...
You have a couple options for installing the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180 in the bed of your 2024 Ram 2500 with the factory in bed hitch system. First we have the Adapter Rails # C29BR which fit into the pucks and give you the ISR mounting points. Do note this will raise the hitch 2" so you will likely need to lower the height of the hitch.
The next option is replacing your ISR Base # C16907 with the Ram Base # C16021 so you can install the hitch directly into the factory... view full answer...
The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR can support up to 35 lb bikes so since you're needing to carry E-Bikes you need the Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack # HLY66ZR instead, which is rated for up to 70 lb bikes.
I know the price difference between those racks is quite a jump so for a mid-tier option we have the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR, which can support up to 80 lb bikes and still secures bikes by the frame.

The new Rhino Box from Lippert currently has no replacements so you won't be able to swap out this pin box with a Sidewinder to add more turning clearance. Because of this you'll have to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch in your 6.5' bed to help prevent the nose your 5th wheel from coming into contact with the cab of your 2021 Ram 3500.
Unfortunately since you have RamBoxes you will not be be able to tow a 5th wheel without using a rotating pin box and would not be able to tow a trailer with... view full answer...
Lance does have a proprietary plug, but many customers see a standard 6-way or 7-way round and notice it doesn't fit their factory 7-way as well. I've attached an article to help if you have one of the 7-way or 6-way round connectors which we do have adapters for. If you have a 7-way round, then you will use adapter # 47595. If you have a 6-way plug then you will use adapter # 47549 or # PK12728.
If you have the special Lance plug, I recommend replacing it with # A7WCB which would directly... view full answer...
I have attached some dimensional drawings of the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP85FR for you which should then help you get a good idea as to whether or not you will have issues with the tool boxes and recessed hitch ball on your flatbed. However, it wouldn't really be possible to give you a definite yes or no answer as there are just too many factors involved. I will say that the closer you are able to get the hitch ball to the floor of the flatbed,... view full answer...
I wish you would have asked this question prior to your purchase of the Curt Extender # C45791, because this extender will not work for your application. It is rated for the 3,500 lb total trailer weight towing capacity and because it is an adapter will also decrease your tongue weight rating of your trailer hitch by 50%.
Instead, you may want to consider the Brophy Ball Mount for 2" Hitch # BH20. This ball mount is capable of towing 10,000 lbs and has a measurement of 13-1/4 inches... view full answer...
The correct Timbren suspension enhancement fit for your 2022 Ram 1500 will actually depend on the cab style of your truck. The Crew Cab and Quad Cab are different fits than the Regular Cab, so you'll want to choose the right one based on that:
- Crew Cab & Quad Cab: Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR1500DQ
- Regular Cab: Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR1500DS
Timbrens were a really nice choice for your Ram because of how much they will help its handling... view full answer...
The most important thing to know when selecting a weight distribution system is your total tongue weight, which is the tongue weight of your fully loaded trailer plus the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your 2016 Ram 1500. Your total tongue weight needs to be in the middle of the weight distribution system's tongue weight capacity in order for the system to work effectively.
The Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution System # EQ37060ET has a tongue weight capacity between 200 lbs... view full answer...
I have a solution for you, but the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform # RR25TB is designed to mount directly to either a Rhino Rack fit kit or Rhino Rack HD bars so you'll need a Pioneer platform that mounts to crossbars. There are 2 different sizes of the Pioneer platform that can be attached to Rhino Rack Vortex Aero bars:
- Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 48" Long x 38" Wide # RR42114BF
- Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum... view full answer...
PullRite sliding hitches have heads that turn as they slide back which would allow the pin box to turn and make contact with your Ramboxes. Unfortunately Ramboxes limit your options to just a fixed hitch and a rotating pin box. Since you're going to be using a rotating pin box you'll need four points of contact with the truck, which means you'll need to either have an in-bed puck system or base rail kit. Once you know if the truck has an in-bed puck system or if you'll need base rails I'd... view full answer...
The use of a properly rated and installed weight distribution system will not require the use of additional suspension enhancements such as the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancements. However, as your 2017 Ram 1500 has coil springs on the rear of the vehicle which tend to sag/squat more than the comparable leaf spring rear suspension setup, I recommend replacing these coil springs with a set of air springs such as the Firestone Coil-to-Air-Spring Conversion Kit part # F2595 which will increase... view full answer...
With your 2022 Ram 2500 having the Ram Box storage in the bed you will need to use a fixed hitch with a pivoting pin box like the Sidewinder # RP34FR. You will not be able to use use the Pull Rite/Demco Autoslide type hitches as they will not clear the bed sides. The pivoting pin box changes the turning point from the 5th wheel hitch to the attachment point on the 5th wheel trailer. This prevents the chance of damage to your bed rails and allows you to make full jackknife turns without... view full answer...
The MaxxAir FanMate RV and Trailer Roof Vent Cover # MA00-955002 will fit your MaxxAir 00-04900K, but it will not allow the lid to fully open. This is a clearance issue that is the same for every other RV roof vent on the market. Manufacturers will not build these covers taller than an RV air conditioner would sit to avoid hitting anything. The manufacturers have stated that it will not affect the ability of the vent or cause issues with any lift arm motors so there's nothing to worry about. view full answer...
You are on the right track, but yes the M25 will not work with a Sidewinder as the jaws and head design tend to fail pretty quick when used with one. So your best option is the B and W Companion hitch part # BWRVK3600.This will allow you to use the Sidewinder pin box which is only way to tow since the truck has the Ram Boxes. view full answer...
I can help you navigate those tight turns in your 2014 Ram 2500.
Since the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter # CAB-C5GX1216 that you referenced does not move the pivot point further back you really do not gain much clearance for tight turns with a short bed truck. Also, if you use an offset adapter like this you can not use an additional offset adapter like the B and W extender you referenced. This would cause too much leverage on the trailer.
Instead I would highly... view full answer...
The Lippert Center Point Trailer Air-Ride Suspension Upgrade Kit # LC1565391 will give performance similar to a factory system but much better than standard equalizers because it absorbs impacts caused by road shocks and it provides a smoother ride and optimum brake efficiency.
The installation requirements include that the trailer have a standard center hanger sized for a 1 3/4-wide leaf spring, with at least 2-1/2-inches from the equalizer hole to the top of the hanger and that it be... view full answer...
We have 2 different ways for you to adapt your 18K Demco Hijacker Autoslide # DM8550034 to the puck system on your 2022 Ram 3500; you can use the Replacement Side Plates # DM99GV which replaces the side plates so the hitch installs directly to the pucks, or you can use the Rail Adapter # DM6099 which installs into the puck system and provides you with industry-standard rails that you'll fit your Hijacker to. view full answer...
The part number you provided, which in our system is # BWRVB3500, is just the replacement base for the standard Companion hitch which is # BWRVK3500. If they are selling just the base then you will also need the head which is # BWRVC3006.
Your 2018 Ram 3500 would also need to have a B&W gooseneck hitch installed to use the Companion. For your truck it is # BWGNRK1314. If you have the factory installed gooseneck hitch then the Companion hitch and base listed above will not fit. Instead... view full answer...
I went to the warehouse and measured the Curt Weight Distribution Shank for 2-1/2" Hitches # C17132 and it measures 9" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the vertical portion of the shank.
