Question about fiver hitch rails and mounting
We are going to be moving out of a Class C and going to a 5th wheel. So, I just picked up an 07 Dodge Ram Cummins short bed 4x4. It had a fiver hitch but the previous original owner removed the rail...

The rails are the least of your concern. Check below the bed and see if your frame brackets are there. If the seller took those then you have an increased expense and installation costs. Curt rails do not come with fastening bolts, they come with the frame brackets. My bolts were carriage style bolts (smooth round head). The ones you buy from a hardware store are soft and may not be suitable for the rail application. I would check with Curt customer service to see if they use special fasteners. When I bought my Curt frame brackets they did not specify that they work only with Curt rails (as I remember).
