Gooseneck and 5th Wheel Hitch System for 2017 Ford F-250 Short Bed Without Factory Pucks
Question:
I have a 2017 Ford F-250 crew cab short bed. It does not have the factory puck system installed. I would like to install something like this. What do you recommend. I would like to be able to tow gooseneck and fifth wheel trailers. Thank you.

For your 2017 Ford F-250 short bed the combination gooseneck/5th wheel hitch system from B&W made of gooseneck part # BWGNRK1116-5W and sliding 5th wheel hitch part # BWRVK3400-5W will work perfectly.
The gooseneck hitch also serves as the installation kit for the Companion 5th wheel hitch so you get both types of hitch in one setup. B&W products are among the best-engineered hitches on the market and are fully USA-made. Sometimes need a clear bed for cargo, with no 5th wheel rails in your way? You get it with the B&W. Check out the linked video.
For an in-bed 5th wheel wiring harness you can use # C57008.
