Nice, sturdy hitch. Dinged it one star for a couple of reasons. First, on one side the bolts wouldn’t snug due to powder coating in the threads. The RV tech was able to tighten them using an air wrench. Second, the rubber grip split in two the first time using it. Other than these two minor problems, the hitch is working out great. I use it to pull a 40’ fifth wheel. Buying from Amazon saved me $800 over the dealers price.

For anyone thinking about buying ANY Reese Hitch (or any of the brands associated with Horizon Global such as Draw Tite, Bulldog, etc.) you may want to hear this story. I've owned several Reese products and never had any issues with them until my second 5th wheel hitch purchased in December 2019.This was the Reese 20K 5th wheel hitch (Item # RP30160) made for a Ram truck's OEM towing prep package. I installed the hitch per the instruction manual with no issues. A few days later, I departed on a road trip down to El Paso, TX with my 36 foot, 14K lbs toy hauler in tow. The trip was uneventful right up until the intersection before the RV camp I was going to stay in. Then, as I pulled away from the light, BANG!!! The hitch broke loose from the bed of my truck. Initially, it and the trailer's gooseneck slammed into the tailgate, destroying it, and then came crashing forward as I applied the brakes, doing more damage to the truck bed and my tool box.Thank God this happened where it happened! If this hitch had broken loose only 10 minutes earlier going 55-60 mph on I-10, the damage could been a lot worse, especially to other vehicles behind me. Luckily it happened right in front of the RV park (Fort Bliss FAMCAMP) where I was going to stay and some very gracious campers came out to help get my truck/trailer out of traffic and into the RV camp. After being stranded for a few days, I bought a new B&W Companion hitch from the El Paso Camping World and made it back home safely.At first glance, it had looked like the steel on the locking pin feet were made from very poor grade steel and sheared away. However, upon closer examination, the cotter pins were missing from the front two locking pin assemblies. These cotter pins are absolutely critical to the proper functioning of this hitch. Without them installed, the locking feet cannot rotate 90 degrees and lock into the truck's pucks. In the instruction manual, you would only open up the end caps and look at these cotter pins if that particular locking foot needed to be adjusted. On my hitch, only the right rear locking foot needed such an adjustment so I didn't open up the caps on any of the others. The instructions DO NOT direct you to do so. Since my hitch was missing those cotter pins on the front two locking feet, only the back two were actually engaged and were holding all of the weight/stress of the trailer. After enough road time, they failed and thus the hitch separation.Bottom line, this was a failure of the quality control process at the plant in Mexico where this hitch was assembled. They failed to ensure those cotter pins were installed. There's also no warning in the installation instructions for the end user to check for the presence of these pins. Do all Reese 5th wheel hitch owners have to take their brand new hitch apart and check to make sure the folks on the assembly line did their job? That would be like you having to make sure all the cotter pins were installed on your brand new car's tie rods. It sucks when you follow the instructions to the letter and a lapse on the manufacturer's part ends up damaging your truck/trailer to the tune of $10K. It certainly could have been a lot worse.So what does the company do about it? Absolutely nothing. Horizon Global, the company which owns the Reese brand, has sat on my claim for six months. I contacted them in January 2020 and even sent the base arches from the broken hitch back to them for an "engineering analysis". After many calls to them, writing a review like this seems to be about my only recourse aside from going after them in court. Lesson learned: don't trust your trailer, truck, your life and the lives of others to defective Reese hitches.
