<div class="bbWrapper">Sorry guys, new here and new to the prep package. Bought a 22 2500 6.7 Laramie. 10k miles. It has the prep package. What type / brand of gooseneck ball should I look for? <br /> <br /> Also looking for side step options.<br /> <br /> Thank in advance.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">The seller didnt give you the hitch kit? it usually comes with the truck. If you dont have it...Curt sells a 2-5/16 hitch kit.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">I have the B&amp;W kit and would recommend it. <br /> <br /> <blockquote data-attributes="member: 20256" data-quote="Wheelz" data-source="post: 330631" class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--expandable bbCodeBlock--quote js-expandWatch"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-title"> <a href="/forum/goto/post?id=330631" class="bbCodeBlock-sourceJump" rel="nofollow" data-xf-click="attribution" data-content-selector="#post-330631">Wheelz said:</a> </div> <div class="bbCodeBlock-content"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-expandContent js-expandContent "> The seller didnt give you the hitch kit? it usually comes with the truck.

Assuming one slide into sleeve and locks into place?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Like this package. Just lock in and should be good to go? Prefer this locking style over the other?</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Yes that will work. That’s the one I have and like it compared to the others</div>

Ram does have it as an accessory, but the B&amp;W kit is nicer for less money. <br /> <br /> Did you buy the truck new or used?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">My 2024 3500 with the prep group did NOT include a hitch ball. If the cheapskates at Ram don&#039;t even give you a f#%&amp;$g owner&#039;s manual, they sure as hell ain&#039;t gonna throw in a hitch ball.</div>
