Question:

Making a decision between the 3500 vs the 3600 fifth wheel hitch. I have a 2014 dodge ram which has the Towing Prep Package so either will work and the capacity is more than enough. The only difference in the install is not having to get under the truck with the 3600! Is there any other difference which should be considered?

For your 2014 Ram 3500 that has the factory fifth wheel rail kit installed in it you would want the part # BWRVK3600 as it has been confirmed to fit it as-is and would just drop right in. Check out the install video I attached as well.

The # BWRVK3500 would require you to have a B and W underbed gooseneck hitch installed, since you don't have that it would not be the hitch for you.
