Question:
I have a BandW patriot 18K fixed 5th wheel mount on bed rails in my 2011 Ram 2500 Crew cab 6.4 bed. My question is this: Will the head and vertical arms I currently have mount on the BandW slider rail? If so, I would order just the slide base and remount the arms and head I already have. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Yes, you will be able to use the Head Assembly # BWRVC3200 from your B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 on the Replacement Slider Base # BWRVB3270. The arms are compatible as well but the replacement base will include new arms with it. This will give you the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 that you are needing for your 2011 Ram 2500 crew cab with the 6.4' bed.
