Question:

I just purchased a Dodge Ram 2012 with the 8 ft bed. I have a Huskey Ez Roller 16k hitch. Which hitch install bracket and rail kit the right one? Does the kit come with installation instructions and measurements?

Helpful Expert Reply:

If your Ram is a 2500 or 3500 series, the # C16420-204 is the correct install kit. For a 1500 series, you would need the # C16306-204.

Installation instructions are indeed included with the install kit, and the instructions do feature dimensions for where the bed rails are placed and exactly where holes are drilled through the bed to connect the frame brackets and bed rails.

If you do not already have a trailer connector installed in your truck bed, you might be interested in part # PK11893-11932
