Question:
What installation rails and hardware do I need to install a B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 18,000 lbs Item # BWRVK3255 in our 2016 Ram 2500 Crew Cab 6-1/2' Bed.

Expert Reply:
The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2602 contains the Mounting Brackets # BWRVR2602 and Base Rails # BWRVR3210 to mount a B&W Patriot Hitch in your 2016 Ram crew cab 6-1/2' bed.
The B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 being a fixed hitch is only recommended to be used in a 6' bed if your trailer is using a pivoting pin box like the Reese Sidewinder # RP34FR. Otherwise you may contact your back window with the front corner of your trailer when making tight jackknife turns.
A B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 allows you to place the hitch 12" further back when you need to maneuver and make jackknife turns with your camper in a tight space. This will prevent damage to your truck and camper in tight situations.
