Question:
Can I install the 5th wheel hitch in my RAM truck with the plastic bed liner in place? Or, do I have to remove the bed liner? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
If the bed liner you have is a drop-in style that slides into the bed you can trim out a hole in the middle of it to allow the B and W Turnoverball hitch part # BWGNRK1314-5W to be accessed. If you were to go and use a Companion hitch like part # BWRVK3500 you'd have to enlarge the cut out section further to allow the full footprint of the hitch to fit.
