Recommended 25,000 lbs Capacity 5th Wheel Hitch

Question:

I bought a used 2006 Dodge ram 3500 crew cab long bed 2 Wheel Dr. and it already has the rails located properly in the bed. I’m looking for a compatible 25k Fifth wheel hitch. Please, I need your help and a recommendation

Since you already have a set of 5th wheel rails in the bed, I recommend the Curt Q25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # C16265. The Q25 has a 25,000 lbs towing capacity and mounts directly to industry standard 5th wheel rails.

The Q25 ITEM # C16265 has a 2-Jaw locking system that provides 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact. This system minimizes the chucking, jarring and noise that can occur when towing a 5th wheel trailer. This not only provides a more secure connection but also a quieter more comfortable towing experience.

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56071. 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.
