Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2008 Ford F-250 Diesel
Question:
I have a 2008 Ford F-250 diesel truck. Want a removable 5th wheel hitch. What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
For your 2008 Ford F-250 diesel I really like the B and W Companion hitches like the part # BWRVK3400 for a slider hitch for if you have a short bed truck and part # BWRVK3500 for if you have a long bed truck and don't need a slider hitch.
For a rail kit then you'd want the # BWGNRK1108-5W which is a confirmed fit and would work well. What's great about this setup is that when you remove the hitch you'll basically have a totally empty truck bed and then it also doubles as a gooseneck hitch too.
