Needing Base Rails for a 5th Wheel Hitch to Fit a 1994 Chevrolet C/K Series Truck
Question:
I purchased a 94 Chevy C2500 long bed pickup. The previous owner used a 5th wheel hitch. But I received none of the hitch equipment, but I do have a Reese 5th wheel hitch. Now I need to purchase hitch rails that will line up with the four holes drilled in the truck bed. The holes are 43.5 inches apart. Are you aware of any rails that will fit my configuration? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The standard bed installation rail that are confirmed to fit a 1994 Chevrolet C/K series truck are Reese # RP30035.
If you look at the attached installation instructions toward the bottom of this page, you will see where the industry standard rails are supposed to be on your truck. I have attached the page that references your truck's year.
The edge of the rear rail will measure 30-15/16 inches from the rear edge of the truck bed. This measurement will be the same across all brands of industry standard rails.
