Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitch in 2003 Ford F-150

Question:

I purchased a camper that didnt have the rail kit to install the hitch. I have a 2003 F-150 with 6.5 foot bed. The hitch is a reese 15k pro series slider with round tubes. Can you assist me with the proper rail kit and any additional items that may be needed to install. And a question I think I already know the answer for: I have a factory installed bedliner that I really hate to loose in the install. Any way to keep the bedliner? Thanks,

Happy to help and we have exactly what you need to use a Pro Series 5th wheel hitch in your 2003 Ford F-150, the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP30035.

In regards to the bed liner, while I totally understand you don't want to lose it, you do need to have metal to metal contact to install either of these base rails. So you can either remove the bed liner or you can cut it where the base rails will be.
