Jeff: Hello everybody, this is jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a look at the Reese Quick-Install custom outboard brackets for fifth-wheel trailer hitches. Now this kit is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2011 to 2016 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450 Super Duty trucks without the OEM prep package.And on a custom fit part like this, I always like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle, and it'll show if this'll work for your application.Now, these are custom outboard brackets, which will dramatically reduce the amount of drilling and time required to install your fifth-wheel trailer hitch to your vehicle. These installation brackets will mount beneath your truck bed, and they provide the attachment points right here for your fifth-wheel rails.Now, these are just like the original custom mounting brackets. These brackets installed below the bed, and they do use existing holes in the truck frame, minimizing installation time and will help minimize drilling and measuring.
And it cuts down that installation time by more than half compared with universal bracket systems.The biggest difference with these, these are outboard brackets, and they're designed to install outside the vehicle's frame. So the result is a much simpler installation process where most underbed components can be easily avoided because you're working outside the frame rails, and you also have easier access with your tools and more room to work, making the whole process, less of a pain.Now these outward brackets are designed to work with the extended length base rails. We do sell those separately on our website. They're part number RP30153. Now those above bed rails are five inches longer than the standard universal rails so that they'll match up with the mounting points on these brackets, which will sit below the bed and outside your truck's frame.You can see it does include the hardware for mounting these brackets to the vehicle frame.
Nice set of instructions on how to install them. And these parts are a nice sturdy black powder coat steel, so they do resist corrosion.But that should do it for the review on the Reese Quick-Install custom outward brackets for the fifth-wheel trailer hitches.
The hitch look good but I have yet to try
Instructions are little bit lacking
I had to call etrailer they decided
I should call Reese which I did
They had my problems handles in a very short time
Thanks again for all you help
Needed a hitch for new fifthwheel and also have short bed truck so also needed a way to make harder turns mostly when backing up not on the road. Has worked well with the exception of the slide option it has never worked with weight on it. I’ve had to use camper jacks to raise and remove weight just to activate and slide every time. Takes a lot of time. Think release bar should be built stronger. And with that exception works great
The Reese assembly instructions were clear and assembly was pretty straight forward until I went to mount the center section on top of the slide rails. The uprights for the slide rails had a large metal bur from the manufacturing process that hindered the U channels on the center section from going down. I also discovered that the center section U channels were bent in and the holes on one side were drilled crooked. I contacted ETrailer.com customer service and they quickly sent me a new center section and return shipping tag for the defective part. The replacement part arrived quickly and assembly was much easier with the new parts. Reese manufacturing quality is average at best but the ETrailer.com customer service is Excellent. Thank you ETrailer.com for helping resolve my issue timely and without hassle!
This is my first 5th wheel hitch. It was purchased to pull my 31ft. Heartland Sundance with my 2017 Ford F250. When delivered it was in several heavy boxes but assembly was very easy with simple hand tools. The videos of the assembly and placement of the hitch were very helpful. Pros easy installation into truck bed, easy to use, heavy duty and well built. Cons I haven't found any!
Nice hitch, went togeather fairly easy. Etrailer was very fast on shipping. Only towed about 30 miles with no problems. On the down side when I removed the hitch for winter only the head removes from the hitch assembly. The sliders and the cross members (one piece unless you unbolt them) are very heavy to remove from the truck bed.
i wan't to thank pat c at etrailer for my new 5th wheel trailer hitch and keeping me up to date with emails and good price thanks
This product is extremely well built and fits the truck perfectly. The custom mounts require no drilling and are very stout. I pulled my 16K lb. toyhauler 300 miles this weekend and the hitch worked flawless. I highly recommend this product and etrailer delivered the hitch within 4 days.
Sandy j was a great help. There so many choices. Told her the whole story (truck,trailer and we planned to do. She really took the time to find the right products and is very knowledgeable on all your products. Shipping was quick and packaging was great. I assembled and installed and this purchase was the right one for my app. Thank sandy j
The kit went together as described. The instructions of the 5th wheel hitch were ok. Kind of had to read between the lines a little. Overall satisfied with my purchase. Its a good product.
Shipped and received as promised. The Reese 5th wheel Hitch and hardware were in perfect condition with no issues. I'm in the process of installing it on my 2013 Ford. I expect no problems. Great price, with no shipping costs or tax paid.
One year later and still very happy with my hitch. Have had no issues at all with its performance. It performs just as advertised and again, great service from etrailer.
I always enjoy using etrailer. Price was a lot lower than I could find locally. Hitch arrived on time. I needed some support for part of the install and they were top notch. Hitch worked as intended and install was smooth. Hitch was used for a 3+ hour trip and it worked great.
This hitch was delivered within 3 days, even using the free ship option. Awesome! I had the rails already bolted in my F350, so the slider and head installation went smoothly with the enclosed instructions. Stout head, and I love the round sliders. Can't wait to hitch up my 12k lbs and drag her up and down the roads around here!
Received the products earlier than expected. Everything was in excellent condition, not even a damaged box. Lori was great to work with, and in a subsequent call, Madison was also great. So far, very happy with my purchases. Will review again after putting on a few miles. Seems like a very reliable company to deal with!
Arrived earlier than expected, everything was boxed accordingly and was mounted in truck within 45 minutes. It was almost too easy, my wife was expecting a little more fuss!
I cannot thank George P and Ms. Kathy enough, they shipped out my order sooner than expected. They will always be the first place I go for trailer parts. two thumbs up!!!!!!!

Excellent price, very speedy delivery, and wonderful customer service. Highly recommend this company. Installation was a breeze. I saved about $800 over camping world's installed price quote.
Great heavy duty hitch, instrutions very good. Had hitch put together in 30 minutes. This was my 3rd order from etariler and just as always great service and fast shipping.
Awesome heavy duty hitch. Rail kit was an exact fit for my 2018 Ford F350 Superduty.
Great hitch works like a champ. Great service from etrailer.
This hitch has served my needs very well. No issues at all. I love the single jaw self latching design.
Easy to install, excellent instructions. Connects well, very happy with this hitch.
Hitch arrived in less than time estimated. It was not too difficult to assemble, has good instructions. It is somewhat heavier than the one replaced but old one was only 15,000 lbs. Works as advertised and is much easier to slide than old one even when new. good product.
This is a great hitch. I have had no problems at all with it.
