Delivery was good as was their communication Really like the hitch. Install took about 3 hours. Video is helpful. Would definitely recommend.



by:
2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Product arrived exactly the day I was informed it would and perfectly packaged with all parts. I installed parts on my truck in about 3.5 hours and they fit exactly how I needed them to fit. Rails worked out perfect with my Reese Pro series 20K hitch



by:

This shipment came sparsely/poorly secured to it's pallet. the Box holding the Installation Kit and Base Rails was incomplete and missing the two rail sections. These rails are the beginning ingredient to installing the 5th wheel hitch to your vehicle. The box was closed and from all appearances was packed without them and shipped to me incomplete. This ongoing situation is further compounded by the horrible customer service response that is on it's second week of calamity. The first week was wasted by a customer representative known to me as Noah promising me that the missing rails would be shipped out UPS on Monday with a sincere apology and that I should receive them by Wednesday of the coming week. This action proved to be dully noted on the file but not performed or followed up by Noah. No sense of urgency from these people? When the promised delivery day of Wednesday passed I called Thursday to find out it was not even shipped yet(raising the question? When were they going to let me know?) After a totally illogical conversation with a young lady (who was loosing her patients for me) repeatedly explained that "etrailer" was waiting 5 days as company policy for the freight company to find the missing parts even though the box was not damaged or tampered with? I then asked to speak to a manager who assured me that she would ship the rails UPS and provide me with a tracking number going on day two and no tracking number, email or phone call from Jennifer? I'd stay away from this company and find one of the many other resources to buy your trailer needs. From all appearances they seem to perform well unless customer service has to get involved and then you are hung out to dry like me?

FYI: I have never complained online before this... but felt compelled hope this was helpfull!

Plastic strips used for galvanic protection could be at alot thicker

William

Excellent kit, still think the plastic strip’s should’ve been thicker. Other than that, everything was as stated and easy installation



by:

Ordering is always a breeze through etrailer. Arrived well packaged and great powder coated components. Straight forward installation instructions with only minor frustration keeping everything in place while tightening each bolt. The kit came with everything except the wiring. Great product.

Ford F-350 Super Duty

I bought a new 2022 Ford F-350 and it didn't come with the 5th wheel mounting set up. I got on etrailer.com and found this and it shipped out right away and it took about 4 hours to install it. which surprised me, I thought it would take most of the day. Everything fit perfect, I didn't have to drill any holes in the frame and my Husky 26,000 lb hitch set on perfect. I've been really happy with it and etrailers service is 2nd to none.



by:

Installation was straight forward with no issues fit was perfect. I used this to replace a base that was clean bed technology but it was about 4" above my bed and it caused my 5th wheel to ride too high in the front. This remedied the situation and now I am riding at the correct height.

2023 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Just received the packages very heavy, I'm sure UPS was thrilled. Opened up the Frame rail box was very impressed with the quality of material fit it to the frame on driver side, everything looks like it's gonna line up perfectly this will take me at least a week to do. I will do a little bit every day I am 65. So far I'm impressed with the quality,



by:
2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

My new 2019 F350 did not have the factory fifth wheel prep so to make my Demco hitch work I ordered this custom rail kit and I am very happy with it. Install was easy and painless since the factory frame had hole right where they needed to be for these brackets. It is a robust set of rails and brackets and will meet my towing needs for sure.



by:
2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Installed under a B&W 18k slider. I installed through a drop in bed liner (cut out openings with reciprocating tool). The only advice I have to make install easier is to not have wheel well liners installed, horrible to put in, let alone take out and put back in. The rest of the install was pretty straight forward on a F250. This is my 2nd installation of these rails, I installed on my 2018 F250 as well as my current 2021.

Great product, fast and reliable shippi ng

Took longer than expected to install but it went well!



by:

I think that amy and everyone at etrailer are awesome



by:

I have the frame brackets in place and one of the two rails installed. It took about 2-3 hours to get two of the 10 bolts for those two parts. I ran into an issue with the forward bolts on the outside of the rear support rail. I'm guessing I happened to get my measurements off by 1/8 of an inch. Luckily I had a grinder and was able to grind down the modified nuts that hold it in place. We will see how the second rail goes tonight. Everything else was spot on, so I'm not sure how I messed up those two holes.

Jeep Patriot

Easy to install. receives patriot hitch well



by:

I went to hitchkin to put it on. And they could not put it on because the toolbox and bedliner was in it. So I took it and bought your setup and the instructions told me exactly what. To do I left the Toolbox And cut Dad. liner as needed. It was about four hours to put it in every Thing lined up perfectly.



by:

Rail kit arrived undamaged and on time. Easy to install. Can’t ask for more than that.



by:
2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Very easy install good instructions fit my husky 5th wheel



by:

The only issue I ran into during installation, the spacer tube 3/8 of an inch too long so I had to cut the tube with a grinder in order for it to fit other than that installation was easy



by:
2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Rails and brackets very well made and heavy duty, Had a little trouble getting the spacers in between the bed and brackets but after we removed the spare and dropped the DEF tank it made it a lot easier (just fyi)



by:

Great communication, speedy (free) shipping, and a quality product



by:

It installed fairly quickly.



by:

Easy to follow instructions for installation. Slider makes hair pin turns much easier. We haul a 15k-16k trailer on it no problems.



by:
2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty

This is a very well made product! Exact fit for 2017 F250. No drilling except for installing the bed rails. This is not difficult if you follow the instructions. This also fits up to my Reese 16k slider hitch!



by:

This is how my product arrived. Just got home from work to find this on a Friday afternoon. Wonder if all parts are inside to do my project tomorrow?

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Bracket/Rail Kit to Install Valley 5th Wheel Hitch in 2017 Ford F250
    Your Valley 7054 5th wheel hitch is compatible with industry standard rails like what's provided by the B&W # BWRVK2402 which is a reasonably priced install bracket/rail kit custom designed for your Ford truck. This kit won't require any drilling into the truck frame, but you will need to drill through the floor of the truck bed to attach the bed rails to the frame brackets. If you'd like to add a 7-way trailer connector to the inside of the truck bed, you can do so using part # 50-97-410-010. I've...

  • Lowest Profile 5th Wheel Hitch for 2017 Ford F-250 without OEM Prep Package
    The lowest profile fifth wheel hitch option we offer for a 2017 Ford F-250 without OEM Prep Package is the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16180 (long bed) or Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # 16516 (short bed) which measures 13" and 15" respectively from the base to the top of the skid plate at the lowest setting. Then, you'd add about another 1" for the B&W Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford part # BWRVK2402. There would be no way to use the Reese Low-Profile 5th...

  • Recommended Base Rail Kit for 2019 Ford F-450 to Mount Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitch
    You can definitely use the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # AM3200 with your 2019 Ford F-450 Super Duty, although this particular hitch does require standard above-bed rails. For that I strongly recommend the Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # BWRVK2402 because they do not require any drilling into the frame of your '19 F-450 to install, which is not only great for your truck but also significantly reduces installation time. If you wanted to add underbed...

  • Compatibility of Pro-Series 20K Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch with B&W Base Rail Kit
    It looks like most of the Pro-Series (if not all) 20k sliding 5th wheel hitches fit in industry standard 5th wheel rails, so you will be able to use the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2402 in your 2017 Ford F-250 to mount your Pro-Series hitch. These rails are custom installation brackets designed to minimize, if not completely eliminate any drilling required to install the brackets on the frame. I've linked a review video of these rails...

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch For Towing Capacities Of 2017 Ford F-350
    Yes, your 2017 Ford F-350 Diesel has a GVWR of 9,900-11,500 lbs and a GAWR at the rear of 6340 lbs and 5250 lbs at the front. The GCWR is 28700 lbs, so with your 5th wheel trailer tow capacity between 20,600 and 21,500 lbs, you are well within your ratings to tow a Montana High Country 5th Wheel. For a 5th wheel hitch if you have the factory prep package, I recommend the Curt Q24 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Ford OEM Legs - Dual Jaw - 24,000 lbs # C16545-16017. If you don't have the...

    For a 2019 Ford F-350 I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50074-58 or just the bracket kit # RP50074. The custom brackets will allow you to mount the 5th wheel rails easily and these rails will accommodate the 5th wheel hitches and the gooseneck adapter you have pictured. The rails are industry standard so you will have no issues with compatibility of your Curt gooseneck adapter # 16055or 5th wheel hitch between...

  • Base Rails and Installation Kit Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty
    You can easily mount a fifth wheel hitch in your 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty and to do that I strongly recommend the B&W Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # BWRVK2402 because they do not require any drilling into your truck's frame to install and include galvanic isolators that are going to prevent corrosion in your Ford's aluminum bed. Not having to drill into your truck's frame is not only good for your truck but also reduces the amount of time it takes to install the rails....

  • Parts Needed to Tow a 25,000 Lb 5th Wheel Trailer with a 2018 Ford F-350
    I do have both gooseneck and 5th wheel hitch options for your 2018 Ford F-350 but you will need to choose between one or the other. As you mentioned, the B&W Companion part # BWRVK3500 for fixed or part # BWRVK3400 for sliding is only rated at 20,000 lbs. They do make adapters like part # 16310 but they also only have a 20,000 lb towing capacity. The correct B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for your F-350 is part # BWGNRK1116. It has a 30,000 lb towing capacity. I have...

    Hey Kevin, great question! The Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails with Installation Kit # C16100 will both fit on your 2017 Ford F-350 and pair with your Reese/Pro Series hitch, but I actually recommend using the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2402 instead because the mounting brackets will match up with existing holes in your truck frame so you don't have to drill into the frame at all. Since the Curt kit is universal you'll have to drill holes into your frame for...

The correct Reese Goose Box for you is the # RP85FR with the spacer kit # RP61301.

  • Can Sliding 5h Wheel Hitch Removed From Previous Vehicle Be Installed in 2020 Ford F-250
    The mounting rails that sit in the truck bed aren't vehicle specific, but the brackets that bolt up the truck frame that secure the mounting rails are. Let's begin with your 5th wheel hitch. It's perfectly acceptable to use the Reese 16K sliding fifth wheel hitch you already have in your new truck. You'll just need to remember to leave the hitch slid in the forward towing position at all times. Operating with the hitch slid rearward would apply too much weight to the rear of the back truck...

This 24,000 lbs hitch has a dual jaw and color-coded lock indicator for safety and security. The dual jaw locking system provides 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact this allows for a secure coupling that is far superior to to slide bar models.

While your RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch is compatible with any brand of industry-standard 5th wheel rails, like the B&W, it's important to point out that this is a fixed hitch.

I really like the A16 hitch since they jaws on the head interlock to provide much better jaw to kingpin contact than other hitches.

In the 16k capacity the Curt A16 part # C16520-16017 is the best option as it also has a great jaw design and is known for being quiet as well.
