Fifth Wheel Hitch issue - How to correct?
Long story, but I'll try to keep it as short as I can. 3 years ago, bought a B&M Patriot slider for my RAM 2500. Had the dealer install rails. My first experience, so I didn't know any better. Deal...

Update:
Well, since I am retired and have lots of time on my hands - I found a coarse round file in my tool box. Used a little (or a lot) of elbow grease and manually reamed slightly. Repeated a few times. I was a little surprised at the ability of the round file, but it worked rather well.
Pins now go in with less hassle. The last one takes a little manipulation for now.
I'd rather have a little tight than a little loose.
As I install and remove the hitch in the future, I may decide to ream a little more.
