pbahlin: I'm looking at purchasing a 2010 Dodge DRW long-bed (due in next week to the dealer) but I've been running the same question by a couple of hitch dealers and getting different answers -- B&W (actual factory) told me that their turn-over ball needs nothing special - the bed and all rigging underneath is the same as the 2009. I called Reese and was told that the crossmembers are located differently and I'd need their 'new' underbed rails that have some type of spacing links added for my Reese Signature hitch if I decide to move it accross. Back to B&W - they told me that they installed one at a truck rodeo a week back and the old one fit (again, this was factory engineer and sales -- I spoke to both because I wonder about the cam lock holding

,) Reese could give me no actual installs so.... I'd take both with a grain of salt.

I've heard nothing but good things about the Trailersaver.. a very wise investment if the wallet can handle the initial cost!!
