5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Install Kit for Old Reese Slider and 2005 Ford F-350
Question:
Hi, I have an older model Reese Kwik Slide fifth-wheel hitch, which rail kit will fit it and on an 05 F350?
asked by: Jose M
Expert Reply:
Your Reese hitch with the Kwik-Slide base will fit in industry standard above the bed rails. For an installation kit that is compatible with both the hitch and your 2005 Ford F-350 I recommend Reese custom kit # RP50082-58. The frame brackets in this kit do not require any drilling so installation will be easier and take less time compared to universal kits. I have included a link to a video showing an installation for you.
You could also use the universal kit # RP30035 if you do not mind drilling into the truck frame. I have linked a video of this kit as well.
