asked by: Garry G
Expert Reply:
If your 2016 Ram 3500 Mega Cab has a long bed you would want the B and W Companion Hitch setup that consists of part # BWRVK3500 for the hitch and then part # BWGNRK1314 for the rail kit. This is a 20k setup that many consider to be the nicest around so it would work well for you.
If instead you have a short bed truck and require a slider hitch the best setup is the Demco Hijacker 21k hitch part # DM8550035 which will automatically slide as you make tight turns. For a rail kit you would then want the part # DM8552026-71.
