Expert Reply:
To install the Reese 14K 5th Wheel Hitch in your 1997 Ford F-250 Diesel truck, you will need to have a vehicle specific installation kit.
If you have a Light Duty F-250 I would recommend a Reese Custom Install Kit # RP50042-58 as the custom install kits will install in about half the time as a universal kit. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out.
If you have a heavy duty F-250 you would want a Reese Install kit # RP30035. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also.
I attached a couple FAQ articles for you to check out also.
