Custom Fit 5th Wheel Brackets for a 2016 Ram 1500  

Updated 08/14/2024 | Published 08/12/2024

Question:

When installing RP58386 brackets on a 2016 ram 1500. Is there any drilling required in the frame, or are there pre drilled holes already in the frame?

Expert Reply:

The Reese Installation Kit item # RP58386 you referenced is semi-custom so it will require drilling into your 2016 Ram 1500's frame. For a set that does not require drilling you'll want item # RP50142. These are just the custom fit frame brackets that will install in predrilled holes.

If you need the entire kit including the in-bed rails you'll want item # RP50142-58.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56070. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
