For your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty with an 8 foot bed, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit # RP50074-58. This rail kit uses custom brackets that will mount beneath your F-350, using existing holes in the vehicle's frame to minimize drilling during installation. These rails will be compatible with Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Pro-Series, Valley and Husky 5th Wheel Hitches. All of the necessary brackets, rails and hardware are included.
I have included a short video review on this product for you to check out.
If you do not have one already, I also recommend adding a 5th Wheel Wiring Harness like the Bargman # 50-97-410. Once installed, this will provide a 7-Way in the bed of your truck for easy hookup with your trailer. I have attached the installation details for your review.
