Installation was very straight forward.
I
used some left over pieces of foam pipe insulation over the cable where it passed over the truck frame and th inner wheel well. I mounted the extended Seven Pin connector just forward of the wheel well just below the bed rail on the driver's side.
The umbilical from our 5th wheel reaches with enough slack to lay on the truck bed.
We picked up our Escape 5.0TA two weeks ago and drove about 3300 miles from WA to MI.
The plug was easy to plug in and unplug.
Overall a very nice product.

@Ronald That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback!


by:

Worked great, I traded the vehicle that I installed the wiring adapter in tho. So it may be of use to someone else also.



by:

Initially worked great, but now it keeps losing connection to the camper. I had to plug the camper in to the 7 way on the bumper to get home. Everything would seem fine but then getting on the highway I'd get a warning message on the dash and lose lights/trailer brakes. Not something you want happening at 70mph.

Truly happy with this product and can't wait to go to work! etrailer sent me everything I requested and the installer had no problems. Everything was packed well in shipping with no problems.



by:
2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty

This product makes it so simple to add a Fifth wheel plug into the bed. Installation takes maybe 20-30 minutes. I installed mine on the column at the tailgate so it is out of the way (less likely to get damaged by other cargo). The only issue I experienced with install was that due to the small opening in that column (from under the vehicle), I had to remove the gray wire cover and then reinstall it after feeding the wire harness up into the column. (This was minor) Would definitely recommend this as it is simply "plug n play" with no cutting of wires or crimping needed.

Thanks for the follow up. I’ve enjoyed the products ease of installation and use. I easily hook up my 5th wheel camper by myself and have had no issues. Great products!

Product arrived overnight and I installed it upon arrival in order to be able to leave on a planned trip. Install was quick and easy and product was as advertised. I appreciated etrailer getting the order out immediately to me. Top rate company.

The trailer wiring extension worked perfectly for my 2013 2500HD setup. It was easy to install and makes hooking up and trailering that much easier.

Nice long wiring harness.

Awesome product fit the truck just like it should and very easy to install keeps me from scratching the tailgate with a wire over the back of the truck easy to reach when hooking up trailer

Working very well yet!



by:

Easy install and a great product. Used on 5th wheel rv trailer. No more wiring cord from trailer hanging over the end gate. Thanks!



by:

Went on in minutes



by:

Customer service for product selection and order entry were excellent and focused on my interests and needs. The hitch, custom installation kit, and harness were shipped very quickly and arrived sooner than expected. Everything arrived in excellent condition. Assembly and installation instructions were very clear and specific, and I was able to assemble and install everything with no problems and in a very reasonable amount of time. Total cost was roughly half of what it would have been if I had purchased the products and had them installed by a dealer. I am very satisfied with my experience dealing with etrailer.com, and would highly recommend them to anyone shopping for towing products.

I'm a huge fan of completing wiring projects with no "hacking" into harnesses. This harness is plug and play. When I finished installing it, the underside of the truck looks like it came from the factory. Job done

I havent thought about it for a year. I can give no higher praise for a product.it does its job very well.



by:
2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty

I haven't installed it yet, however, I cut the inside bed wall in preparation for a spray-in bed liner before installing.
It looks just like the picture and description, arrived undamaged and ready for install. Great installation instructions!

Still using and I really like the hitch and other items I purchased a year ago. After installing the Curt fifth wheel hitch, Ive used it several times and I will be using it a bunch over rbe next several weeks. Easy to maintain and use.



by:
2019 Ram 2500

This is an easy install and seems well made. I probably didn’t need the 10’ long my truck called for but no problem zip tying up out of the way. Well pleased.



by:

This wiring harness made adding a plug in the bed of the truck for the gooseneck trailer a breeze. I didn’t really need the 10’ harness but I just looped and zip tied the excess. One year later and the plug still works great.



by:
2004 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

Do not like anything to do with automotive wiring so I purchased this item because it appeared to be just plug and play with no cutting or splicing wires. It is just that, plug and play and it was done.

Unplugged 7 point connector attached to bumper and plugged in the new wiring harness. One other plug was unplugged and wiring harness 2nd plug was plugged in. Route wiring loom along along factory wiring loom inside frame close to the front of my 2004 F 250 super Duty 8ft truck bed. Drilled hole and connected harness and plug so my slide in camper electrical will plug into this trailer plug. Screws to mount to inside of truck bed are stainless steel which is great to protect against rust. I also brushed Rustoleum paint inside the hole I cut so there was no bare metal surfaces exposed. 10ft wiring loom was the right choice to get plug up near the front of my 8ft bed.

  • Best 5th Wheel Hitch For 2008 Ford F-350 Long Bed For 14,000 lb Trailer
    We can get your 2008 Ford F-350 long bed set up with a 5th wheel hitch to pull your 2012 Heartland Bighorn 3070RL. Based on my research that trailer has a 14,000 lb GVWR, and we have the perfect option for a hitch to tow a trailer of that size. I'll also recommend the correct base rails for your F-350 so you can mount the hitch, and the best option is going to be from Curt: - Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120 - Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # C16448-204 The...

  • Recommended Fifth Wheel Hitch Options For 2016 Ford F-250 With Factory Prep Package
    Since you have the factory prep package in your 2016 F-250, you may want to take advantage of the puck system so you have complete access to the bed of your truck. I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch, part # BWRVK3300. This is a 20,000-lb hitch, and it has 1-inch thick dual-jaws for better king pin to jaw contact. Another hitch that will work with the factory puck system is the Reese M5 Series, part # RP30921. This hitch has a 20,000-lb capacity. The third option is...

  • 7-Way Wiring for 2003 Ford F-350 Longbed for Lance Slide-In Truck Camper
    We do have 7-way wiring harnesses intended for use in the bed of a pickup for either a slide-in camper or a 5th wheel trailer. Harness # C56000 that you referenced is a suitable option. This kit plugs right in at your bumper-mounted factory 7-way (which will remain fully active, by the way) and provides 10-feet of additional slack to let you plug in your Lance camper. This harness uses a round U.S. Car connector. There are no similar harness options that plug-in at the front of the vehicle.

  • Best Placement in Truck Bed for Fifth Wheel 7-Way Trailer Connector
    The best spot to install the Trailer Connector is on the bed sidewall on the drivers side, between the wheel well and the tail gate. We have an installation video showing this Curt 5th Wheel and Gooseneck Wiring Harness # C56000 being installed on a 2002 Ford F250. You might want to consider using some dielectric grease, part # 11755 on the connections to provide protection from moisture. If you click the provided link, you can see an install video.

  • Recommended Custom 5th Wheel Rails Kit for a 2001 Chevy Silverado 3500
    The most custom fit installation kit we have that requires the least amount of drilling is the Reese Quick-Install Kit w/ Base Rails item # RP50064-58. It is customized to fit your 2001 Chevy Silverado 3500 and is compatible with the dually models. I have linked an installation video below along with the instructions. This kit fits Silverado 1500's-3500's from 1999 - 2010 so the directions are a bit long but the steps to doing it on a 2001 3500 are clear. You will just have to drill the...

Instead, I highly recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # BWGNRK1320. This system is confirmed to fit your 2022 Ram 2500 short bed diesel truck so long as you don't have the prep package. The B&W item # BWGNRK1320 is made in Kansas at B&W's headquarters.

    We can help you with getting your 2015 Ford F-250 short bed pickup ready for 5th wheel towing. The essential items you need are a hitch install kit, the hitch itself and a wiring kit for the truck bed. Slider hitches are required for short-bed trucks like your 6-3/4-foot F-250. The exceptions are when the trailer has a specific tapered nose design (instead of a full-width flat front) that provides more turning clearance.

    The Reese hitch and rails you have are not compatible with your factory rail kit (the pucks) on your 2016 Chevy Sierra 2500 with 6-1/2 foot bed. For your truck, I recommend the Adapter Rails for Curt 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Chevy/GMC Towing Prep Package # C16023 along with the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R20 Slider - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # C16140.

Even though sliding 5th wheel hitches are a good solution, they tend to be heavier than normal 5th wheel hitches. when you have the factory prep package that uses the pucks, a regular 5th wheel is easier to get in and out of your truck bed so that you can gain full access when not towing your 5th wheel trailer.

    The only thing that you will need to change to be able to use the Demco Hijacker 18K # DM8550022 on your 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 is a new underbed rail and installation kit. Since the chassis on a 2008 Ford F-350 and a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 are different, you will need to use a different installation kit.

The Reese Sidewinder cannot be used with any Gooseneck Adapters because they do not offer a secure enough mounting point with the gooseneck ball and you do not want two pivot points in your towing setup.

Just as the name states, the Hijacker Auto Slide hitch head will slide rearward during sharper turns to provide the necessary clearance between the front of the fifth wheel and the rear of the truck cab.

  • 5th Wheel Install Kit and Slider Hitch Recommendation for 2015 GMC Sierra Duramax Diesel Short Box
    A fixed 5th wheel hitch cannot be used in your 2015 GMC Sierra Duramax diesel with 6.5-ft box. Short bed trucks like yours must use a sliding 5th wheel hitch in order to have enough clearance for tight turns. In terms of an installation kit I recommend a custom type since this will reduce overall install time and eliminate the need to drill into the truck's frame for the under-bed brackets. These will mount to existing holes in the frame. I suggest the Curt # C16411-204. For a sliding...
