I'd say so Diana. But really as long as your trailer is not more than 25,000 lbs the PullRite OEX Super 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ram Prep Package # PUL29ZR will work fine.

If the trailer is heavier let me know and I'll see what I can find that'd work better.

Hey Mike, yes the locking plate setup you have now that you are using with your current Pullrite hitch would be the same as what you'd want to use with the Pullrite OEX part #PUL29ZR you are looking at so you wouldn't need to replace that as…

Hey Barry! The Replacement Coupler Head w/ Pin Box Adapter #PUL99ZR is not considered a gooseneck system so it does not require safety chains. This coupler head is designed to fit PullRite OEX 5th-wheel hitch bases so it will work with your #PUL29ZR.…

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.…

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 John, thanks for the picture of your truck bed! To install a set of 5th wheel rails in your 2022 Ram 2500, I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item #BWRVK2602. This set of rails are industry standard so they'll work…

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 Hadiya! No, the Curt E16 5th Wheel Hitch w/ S20 Slider for Ram #C85PV will not give you enough clearance to maneuver the Layton Skyline 5th wheel with your 2021 Ram 1500 with a 5-1/2' bed. This unit only moves you 12" back from the…
