To use the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System # AM3200 with a Road Armor pin box you'll need to reach out to Andersen for their lockout adapter. This will install on the pin box and prevent it from rocking back and forth so that it can be used with the Andersen Ultimate hitch.

Yes, the weight of the 5th wheel hitch needs to be considered when looking at vehicle payload capacity. For example if you have a B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 25,000 lbs #BWRVK3600 that weighs about…

The safe GVWR rating is 80-85% of total weight capacity to allow for any additional weight added to the trailer. So for a 16k pin box you'd be looking at 12,800lbs - 13,600lbs as a safe weight. I looked up your current pin box with the LCI Number…

The pin weight which is the same as hitch weight but for a 5th wheel and gooseneck trailer cannot exceed either the payload capacity or the gross axle weight rating (GAWR) on your 2015 Ram 2500. I do have access to the payload and (GAWR) figures for…
