According to what I can see in the online user guide, your 2010 Ram 1500 5.7 Quad Cab 4x4 should have a 10,450 lb max towing weight and a 1,510 lb max payload. That being said there is a lot of variance between these different Ram models, and we do suggest consulting your owners manual to confirm the towing capacities of your specific vehicle. This information can also be found on the stocker in your door.

If you are in the market for a new fifth wheel hitch, I recommend the B and W 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3200 and Semi-Custom Install Kit with Above Bed Rails # BWRVR3205-00. B&W makes an extremely well-built hitch. This one is rated for 16,000 lbs, which will be plenty of capacity based on what your truck can pull. Keep in mind that in order to tow a fifth wheel with your short bed truck, you will have to equip your camper with a Sidewinder or rotating pin box, and purchase the wedge kit # SWW-06.
