Pullrite Super 5th or Reese Signature?

[Robert415]

I tried to do a search to dig up some info, but I can't find exactly what I am looking for. I think I have my choices down to either the Pullrite 25. 5k or the Reese Signature 24k. I haven't talked to dealers first hand, I have just comparing prices on various different sites. I am confused on the price of the pullrite. Do I buy the hitch at $750+ then buy the super rails to get all of my bed back for another $600? I understand the Pullrite doesn't require any drilling, but I have not confirmed if the rails that Reese sells that are specific to my truck bolt right up. Any info would be great. I haven't found a lot of "hands on" info on the Reese Signature, if anyone has one let me know what you think of the "Puck" system.

When I installed my Reese signature I had to drill for the under bed rails, 4 holes in the frame. Mine is the 18K though not sure if the mount is different for the 24K. It was not that hard and it is within the Dodge's specs so it does not cause any warrantee problem. This is the the post from when I did the install.

You are correct that you need to order both parts separately for the Super 5th. I bought mine at http://www.bigdiscountrv.com/fifthwheel_pullrite.htm. Good service and quick delivery. It looks like the prices have gone up since I bought mine as $358 + $410 for my 15K. Shipping is free. I have some info and pics on my installation at http://www.klenger.net/dodge/pullrite/index.html.

Thanks for the input. I think I will go with the reese. If the only disadvantage is a couple of holes that won't void the warrantee, then I can save some money and get a Brakesmart Controller.

Robert,



You can't use Super Rails with a 25. 5 Super Fifth. That hitch has it's own mounting plate. Only the 15. 5 and 20. 5 use the Super Rails. The 25. 5 is a real Beast ! Unless you have One Big Honking trailer the 20. 5 would probably work fine.



To answer your question, yes, the Super Rails must be purchased seperatly ($500-$600).

I have the reese . But it was a question of money and time for me . Both are good hitches .

After 1 year the reese worked fine and is easy to take out and store . . Pull pins and take out in two pieces . Use wheelbarrow to take to back yard . .

According to this site: http://www.bigdiscountrv.com/fifthwheel_pullrite.htm, there are two SuperRail kits, the 16K and 24K.
