Parts Needed to Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer with 2020 Ram 2500 with Ram Boxes  

Question:

Good morning jameson, I had sent a email earlier asking for a wedge that would bolt up to the turning point kingpin, even though it comes with a turning point universal wedge i had read a few forums that state the universal does not work very well. I want to purchase a reese custom wedge for the rp30928 hitch that I purchased and had installed in my truck.

Thanks for all of the info you listed on your camper and tow vehicle. Since we know your camper has a Lippert 1621 pin box the correct Sidewinder would be the # RP61422.

On trucks with Ram Boxes the only way to tow a fifth wheel trailer is to use a Sidewinder pin box since it moves the pivot point up higher so there is no pin box interference.

For all Reese products you could use the part # RP30928 for the hitch and then part # RP50054-58 for the rail kit. Then for a wedge for that hitch # RP44FR.
