OE Puck System
Expert Take
This 16K KW puck-mount kit for Ram HD is the budget-friendly pick for lighter trailers, levering in and out of the factory bed without rails. Quality is honest mid-pack and the price is right; ride is just average since there's no cushioning in the head.
About This Product
The Husky 16K KW Series is a rail-mount hitch that works independent of truck-specific puck systems. Sixteen thousand pounds of capacity with a straightforward design. If your truck does not have factory pucks or you want mounting flexibility, rail systems are the alternative.
Rails mount to your truck bed first, then the hitch attaches to the rails. More installation steps than puck mounts, but the rails become a permanent platform for any rail-compatible hitch. Upgrade later without changing the mounting.
Simple jaw design grips the kingpin securely. Height adjustable. No-frills construction focused on reliability over features.
Husky keeps it basic and affordable. Good choice when you want dependable towing without paying for premium bells and whistles.
Works with most full-size truck beds that accept rail mounting. Check specific requirements for your truck before ordering.

24K SuperGlide
The 24K SuperGlide is the gold standard for short-bed trucks, automatically sliding the hitch back when you turn so the trailer clears the cab without you touching a thing. It drops into factory pucks and tows incredibly smooth; the auto-slide mechanism is the trade you make on a slightly fussier install.
