Thank you for the picture. It looks like you have the Black Aluminum Bearcat Trailer Wheel. Although the black has been discontinued, we do still have the gunmetal gray # 274-000039. This matches your current size and bolt pattern as well. To completely match your current wheels, you will also need the Lionshead Trailer Wheel Center Cap w/ Snap-In Plug - 4.88" to 4.9" Pilot - Stainless # LHCS109-SI60C.

Answer 1

Lionshead does not offer us a version of the Bearcat trailer wheel part #274-000039 that comes with any tires mounted on it so if you wanted a Load Range E tire for it, you'd need to order it separately like with the Goodyear Endurance part…

You are right about the look of the #JWM60A, though the reason we recommend it as a replacement for the AWM968 is that it is the model that technically replaced the AWM968 when it was discontinued in 2017. Having said that, there is an option, that…

A hitch ball like the part #A-90 would work great with the Curt weight distribution system part #C17499. This has a shank diameter of 1-1/4 inch and a length of 2-5/8 inch. There isn't an exact length requirement but this length for sure works…

The OEM prep package consists of 4 "pucks" in the bed of the truck that will allow you to drop in puck style hitches for easy installation and removal, that gives you a completely clear bed when not in use. The B&W Companion OEM 5th…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

Answer 6

We have lift kits for trailer that easily add 2 inches to the height of the trailer. For that you'd want the part #RR23QX and you'd be set. I attached a picture that shows how it installs to give you an idea. This would be the easiest…

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…

Hey Tom, congrats on the new truck! Typically when we hear that someone has the OEM tow prep package they mean the puck system. This is going to be five circular holes built into the bed of your Ram truck and is by far the best way to attach a 5th…

Since we don't carry the PullRite line I can't really speak to their quality but from what I can see from there website their 2900 model is fairly similar to the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider #DM89GV. Both hitches offer 14"…

Hey Robert, congrats on your new 5th wheel trailer! It is highly recommended to use a sliding hitch like the B&W Companion item #BWRVK3370 the shorter 6-3/4' bed on your 2026 Ford F-350. The slider will ensure you have clearance when making…

Hey Paul! The PullRite SuperGlide #PUL43RR (2714) and #PUL73RR (2914) do weigh the same. The main difference is the capacity, which is going to come from the base of the 5th wheel hitch. Since your 2027 Keystone Cougar 316RLS has a GVWR of 12,900 lbs…
