Can Head be Removed from B&W Patriot Slider 5th Wheel Hitch in a 2015 Ram 2500
Updated 09/25/2017 | Published 09/23/2017
Question:
can the head be taken off to make it easier to remove and place back onto the truck - I will be using it with a 2015 ram 2500 factory pucks and a reese adapter that I have used currently- my main concern is one person removal and placement in the bed of the truck- I do need a slider hitch as I have 6.5 box and have experienced the non slider contact situation. Will be purchasing a 5th wheel slider hitch .
