Recommended In-Bed 7-Way Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2005 Dodge Ram 3500

Question

Question:

Do you guys have anything available that I can keep and use my 7 way plug on my bumper and also have a 7 way plug that I can mount in my bed for a 5th wheel pigtail on a 2005 dodge ram 3500 4x4 single wheel? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Absolutely, the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness part # HM42137 will give you a 7-way trailer connection point in the bed of your 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 for use with gooseneck/5th wheel trailers and still retain the use of the 7-way trailer connector on your bumper.

I have attached an install video of the above harness for you as well.
