2014 Chevrolet Silverado

Was a perfect fit. The u-bolt on the driver's side is pretty tight to the gas tank on my 2014 Silverado and it was almost impossible to put in the last bolt to the rails in the bed without dropping the tank. That never showed up in the instructions but everything else was spot on.

It was delivered on time.



by:
2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

The staff at etrailers did an excellent job of directing me to the appropriate product to fit my truck and after I ordered the kit, I was very informed as to shipping date and expected arrival. Customer service was excellent

2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Everything fit perfect



by:
2015 GMC Sierra

Installed rails on 2015 Sierra 1500 short bed. The lower side brackets and rail lined up perfectly on the rear rail needed to drill holes on the 2nd set of holes from the outside in of rail and in the front rail I drilled the outside set of holes on the rail for it to line up with lower bracket. The reason we I rated it a 4 star was because I had to relocate the brake cable bracket on the driver side and the kit does not come with a special bracket for relocation or set of holes on lower rail brackets to mount brake cable bracket to. Careful when drilling holes on front bracket driver side fuel tank and wire harness runs right underneath drilled hole.

2012 GMC Sierra

Just what I was looking for



by:

The kit was installed by a third party installer. They did a beautiful job. In towing my 5th wheel 27' trailer, the feel is very solid. It works great.



by:

2 nuts out of 16 in the kit and missing one of the frame supports were missing. The company was supportive but it took another 3 days to receive. No quality control I guess



by:

This is by far the best Fifth Wheel rail kit out there! Minimal drilling and mounts by big U-Bolts wrapped around the frame.



by:
2011 GMC Sierra

I liked the way it went together just a little difficult to access the nuts below the bed of the truck. All and All very pleased

  • Can 5th Wheel Trailer be Towed with 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTZ with 6 Lift and 5-1/2 Bed
    You still might be able to tow a 5th wheel trailer with your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 LTZ even though it does have a 6" lift and the 5-1/2' bed. What you'll need to do so is install the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2503 (you'll need to contact B&W for the brackets to make this compatible with your MagneRide Suspension) because it doesn't require drilling and then I recommend using the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30928 because it has a hitch height range of...

  • Is There An Adapter To Connect A PullRite SuperGlide To A B&W Turnoverball Hitch
    Typically when someone is wanting to use an rail style hitch when there's a gooseneck hitch already in place they can simply use an adapter like # 16310. Unfortunately in your case the PullRite SuperGlide isn't going to be compatible with an adapter since it has a flat base and doesn't arch up to clear the middle supports of the adapter. Because of this you would unfortunately have to either remove the turnoverball hitch or use a different 5th wheel hitch that was compatible with it....

  • 5th Wheel Hitch Needed for a 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 Crew Cab with 5-1/2 Foot Bed For Turning Clearance
    Generally speaking, you will need to use a rotating pin box with super short beds as there just isn't enough cab clearance but I have attached for you an article with measurements that will allow you to determine if your trailer will clear the truck cab. That said, I don't have any exact data on your particular truck and trailer combo. In order to find the correct rotating pin box we will need to know the model number on your existing pin box.

  • Do I Need a Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 w/ a 6-1/2' Bed?
    Since your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 has the shorter 6-1/2' bed you are going to want to use the sliding B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3270. Without the slider you won't be able to make tight turns or back up without hitting your 5th wheel trailer. If you need a set of 5th wheel rails, I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # BWRVK2503. These are custom fit and install in predrilled holes in your Silverado's frame.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Rails for a 2016 GMC Sierra 1500

The brackets are custom fit and install in pre-existing holes in your Sierra's frame. They fit all three bed lengths of the 2016 Sierra 1500. I have linked an installation video...

  • Do The Curt C16204 Universal Rails Come With Hardware?
    No, the Curt # C16204 Universal Rails do not come with hardware. The hardware will be included with the bracket kit, which is custom fitted for your vehicle. I see that you are looking for parts for a 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 short bed. For that I suggest the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2503.

    As long as your Pullrite Superglide hitch is part of the ISR series, not all 2700 series are so you will need to verify, then the B&W Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10 Bolt Item # BWRVR3200, will work. If you do not have an ISR series Pullrite has an adapter to industry standard rails that you can get. I do suggest however that you go with the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches, # BWRVK2503, instead. This...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch For A 2017 GMC Sierra With A 6-1/2 Foot Bed
    For your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 6-1/2 foot bed we recommend using a slider hitch. I recommend the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider Item # BWRVK3270 and the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails Item # BWRVK2503. B&W are well known for the quality of their hitches. It has much thicker steel than other brands. The articulating head sits on durable rubber pads so it does not rattle as others do when not in use. Due to the bed being 6-1/2 foot, the slide feature allows...

    For your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 with the MagneRide suspension we have the B and W Custom Fifth Wheel Rail Kit part # BWRVK2503 as a confirmed fit that would work great but you will have to contact them prior to purchasing the rail kit as there are some versions of the truck that require additional bracketry. It's our only option but it's also a really great option so it's the way to go for sure. I recommend using the Reese M5 series Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30928 because it has a hitch...

    We do have a solution for you but it is not the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter, # AM3200.

With that being said, since there is no installation kits for your truck, you unfortunately won't be able to use your hitch; However, I do have another possible solution for you. I know it's not an ideal situation, but since you aren't able to use your hitch I recommend investing in a new setup. If you're interested,...

  • Will B&W Patriot Work on 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 With 5-1/2 Foot Bed
    You can use a B&W Patriot 5th wheel hitch on your 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500, but not the sliding option - or any sliding 5th wheel hitch. The reason for that is you don't have the needed clearance to make a sharp turn and a 5th wheel trailer will hit your truck cab. So to tow a 5th wheel with your 5-1/2 foot bed '14 Silverado 1500 you need a fixed hitch and a Sidewinder rotating pin box.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch And Pin Box For A 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali 5.5' Bed MagneRide
    Since your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali with MagneRide suspension has a 5-1/2' bed you'll have to use a sidewinder pin box to help prevent the nose of your 5th wheel from coming into contact with the cab of your truck. Pin boxes have specific bolt patterns so you'll have to know what model pin box your 5th wheel currently has on it. For example, the Reese # RP34FR will fit a Lippert 1621 pin box bolt pattern.
