If your Ram 2500 with 6-1/2-foot bed has the factory 5th wheel prep (with mounting pucks in the bed) then I strongly recommend going with Demco's 18K Hijacker Autoslide #DM8550034 and the matching installation kit #DM6099. Not only does the Demco…

Hey Jerry, GM moved the placement of their puck systems starting with 2020 models so you are correct that the pucks would have the hitch not sit directly over the axle. GM did the math and made sure that this placement wouldn't adversely affect…

Since the pin weight of your camper is 2.1k, I recommend going with the LoadLifter 5000 opposed to the 7500. While technically there is not reason you couldn't use the 7500 kit, it really is not necessary for a camper like yours. Generally the…
