    Can l Tow Momentum with shortbed RAM

    I have 2018 short bed RAM 3500. I tow my 337RLS with this vehicle using Reese Goosebox. It tows great but I do use care with turns. Thinking about getting Momentum 320G. The Momentum is about five inches wider but I can find no info if cap is designed differently to give same clearance as 337 cap. Anybody have experience towing Momentum with a shortbed?

    I briefly (don't ask) had a 2019 F250 shortbed, Goosebox, with a Momentum 351M. It worked, but, as you said, you need to use care turning, it could interfere. I'd say I could get to about 75 degrees before I started sweating. Enough, but 90 is better, of course.

    Depending on who's goose hitch you have in the truck, you can get offsets to move it back. My 250 had a B/W, they make a 4" offset for that hitch, so I could move everything back by that amount. That helped a lot. Again, I could still get it to hit, but it was getting really close to 90 before it would touch.

    Thanks for info..
    The RAM has factory ball mount which does not allow the use of offset ball ...it is a round hole so “square peg doesn’t fit in round hole” !
    I do have a Curt Slider that mounts in factory puck mounts , but takes up the entire bed! Based on your experience I may be a able to use the goose...Thanks

    We have a 2018 354M with the stock pin and a non-slide Reese hitch in a F350 CCSB. Never been close to hitting the cab.

    He asked about a Ram. Ford has the longest short bed of all three manufactures. The Ford is about 6"s longer than the Ram. That will make a difference.
