Can My 5th Wheel Hitch Be Adapter To A New Truck

Updated 09/16/2024 | Published 09/08/2024

Question:

I have a fifth wheel hitch that I used on my 2018 dodge ram 2500. I sold truck and now I want to sell hitch. Is there an adapter that allows it to fit other brands of truck like ford and Chevy puck configuration?

Hello Shane. There may be a way to adapt your 5th wheel hitch to your new truck, but without knowing exactly what model of 5th wheel hitch you have, it is hard to give you any specifics.

Can you tell me the brand and model of 5th wheel hitch you have? Is your hitch made to fit the Ram OEM puck system, or does it fit into industry standard 5th wheel rails?

Also, if you can let me know what vehicle you are trying to adapt it to, I can see if we have anything that will work for you. Just let me know in the comments below.

Hey I have a pull rite super glide 2900. It had the adjustable rails but I removed them and welded in place due to the movement while towing. My truck was a 2018 Ram 2500. They added the pins to the bed to fit the hitch. I’m assuming it is a standard pattern. I want to sell it and need to see if it will fit others.

@ShaneB Ok so if your PullRite hitch is made for the industry standard 5th wheel rails, there is a way to adapt it to another truck. For example, if you got a new Ford F250 with the OEM puck system you could use the Adapter Rails # C88KR. This adapter fits into the ford puck system, and will allow you to mount a 5th wheel hitch made for the industry standard rails. This adapter will work for the Ford, Chevy and GMC OEM puck systems. If you need to adapt it to a different truck just let me know and I am happy to confirm fitment for you.

@JesseM is there any way to send you a picture of my hitch to show you how I modified the hitch?
