Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Ford F-350 Short Bed with Factory Rail Kit
Question:
2016 f350 crew cab srw 156wheel base 6 3/4 bed with ford factory puck system. Pulling bighorn 3575e 15,000 lb 40foot about 3500 miles per year. I use my truck to pull gooseneck cattle trailer as well. What 5wheel do you recommend knowing the hitch will be removed 6-8 times per year? Dont know if I need a slider or not. Been using a Reece 16000 but on my f350 drw farm truck that has a 9foot flatbed and the Reece is about worn out. This is new to me. Any help is appreciated. Made in USA is important to me.

For a USA made fifth wheel hitch that would work great in the factory rail kit of your 2016 Ford F-350 short bed you'd want the B and W Companion hitch part # BWRVK3370. This is easily the best option for your truck so we recommend it highly for you. This hitch is often referred to as the nicest fifth wheel hitch setup around so we know it will work well. Plus it is USA made like you mentioned needing.
I attached a review video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
