Delivery was good as was their communication Really like the hitch. Install took about 3 hours. Video is helpful. Would definitely recommend.



by:
2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Product arrived exactly the day I was informed it would and perfectly packaged with all parts. I installed parts on my truck in about 3.5 hours and they fit exactly how I needed them to fit. Rails worked out perfect with my Reese Pro series 20K hitch



by:

This shipment came sparsely/poorly secured to it's pallet. the Box holding the Installation Kit and Base Rails was incomplete and missing the two rail sections. These rails are the beginning ingredient to installing the 5th wheel hitch to your vehicle. The box was closed and from all appearances was packed without them and shipped to me incomplete. This ongoing situation is further compounded by the horrible customer service response that is on it's second week of calamity. The first week was wasted by a customer representative known to me as Noah promising me that the missing rails would be shipped out UPS on Monday with a sincere apology and that I should receive them by Wednesday of the coming week. This action proved to be dully noted on the file but not performed or followed up by Noah. No sense of urgency from these people? When the promised delivery day of Wednesday passed I called Thursday to find out it was not even shipped yet(raising the question? When were they going to let me know?) After a totally illogical conversation with a young lady (who was loosing her patients for me) repeatedly explained that "etrailer" was waiting 5 days as company policy for the freight company to find the missing parts even though the box was not damaged or tampered with? I then asked to speak to a manager who assured me that she would ship the rails UPS and provide me with a tracking number going on day two and no tracking number, email or phone call from Jennifer? I'd stay away from this company and find one of the many other resources to buy your trailer needs. From all appearances they seem to perform well unless customer service has to get involved and then you are hung out to dry like me?

FYI: I have never complained online before this... but felt compelled hope this was helpfull!

Ordering is always a breeze through etrailer. Arrived well packaged and great powder coated components. Straight forward installation instructions with only minor frustration keeping everything in place while tightening each bolt. The kit came with everything except the wiring. Great product.

Excellent kit, still think the plastic strip’s should’ve been thicker. Other than that, everything was as stated and easy installation

Ford F-350 Super Duty

I bought a new 2022 Ford F-350 and it didn't come with the 5th wheel mounting set up. I got on etrailer.com and found this and it shipped out right away and it took about 4 hours to install it. which surprised me, I thought it would take most of the day. Everything fit perfect, I didn't have to drill any holes in the frame and my Husky 26,000 lb hitch set on perfect. I've been really happy with it and etrailers service is 2nd to none.



by:

Installation was straight forward with no issues fit was perfect. I used this to replace a base that was clean bed technology but it was about 4" above my bed and it caused my 5th wheel to ride too high in the front. This remedied the situation and now I am riding at the correct height.

2023 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Just received the packages very heavy, I'm sure UPS was thrilled. Opened up the Frame rail box was very impressed with the quality of material fit it to the frame on driver side, everything looks like it's gonna line up perfectly this will take me at least a week to do. I will do a little bit every day I am 65. So far I'm impressed with the quality,



by:
2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

My new 2019 F350 did not have the factory fifth wheel prep so to make my Demco hitch work I ordered this custom rail kit and I am very happy with it. Install was easy and painless since the factory frame had hole right where they needed to be for these brackets. It is a robust set of rails and brackets and will meet my towing needs for sure.



by:
2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Installed under a B&W 18k slider. I installed through a drop in bed liner (cut out openings with reciprocating tool). The only advice I have to make install easier is to not have wheel well liners installed, horrible to put in, let alone take out and put back in. The rest of the install was pretty straight forward on a F250. This is my 2nd installation of these rails, I installed on my 2018 F250 as well as my current 2021.

Took longer than expected to install but it went well!

I think that amy and everyone at etrailer are awesome



by:

I have the frame brackets in place and one of the two rails installed. It took about 2-3 hours to get two of the 10 bolts for those two parts. I ran into an issue with the forward bolts on the outside of the rear support rail. I'm guessing I happened to get my measurements off by 1/8 of an inch. Luckily I had a grinder and was able to grind down the modified nuts that hold it in place. We will see how the second rail goes tonight. Everything else was spot on, so I'm not sure how I messed up those two holes.



by:

I went to hitchkin to put it on. And they could not put it on because the toolbox and bedliner was in it. So I took it and bought your setup and the instructions told me exactly what. To do I left the Toolbox And cut Dad. liner as needed. It was about four hours to put it in every Thing lined up perfectly.

2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty

Rails and brackets very well made and heavy duty, Had a little trouble getting the spacers in between the bed and brackets but after we removed the spare and dropped the DEF tank it made it a lot easier (just fyi)



by:
2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty

This is a very well made product! Exact fit for 2017 F250. No drilling except for installing the bed rails. This is not difficult if you follow the instructions. This also fits up to my Reese 16k slider hitch!



by:

Great communication, speedy (free) shipping, and a quality product



by:

Easy to follow instructions for installation. Slider makes hair pin turns much easier. We haul a 15k-16k trailer on it no problems.



by:

When I placed the order it was my 4th go around trying to get the type of hitch I wanted. I was assured that this would fit my truck. I received an email indicating the same thing along with my question. The voice experience was very assuring and positive. The delivery was right on schedule. The installation took only three hours and works well. All the way from ordering to installation was positive. Would order from this company again.



by:

It installed fairly quickly.

This is how my product arrived. Just got home from work to find this on a Friday afternoon. Wonder if all parts are inside to do my project tomorrow?

  • Recommended Fifth Wheel Hitches for 2018 and 2019 Ford F-250 and F-350 Trucks
    Hello, When you say doing a fleet of vehicles with the fifth wheel prep package are you referring to simply adding fifth wheel hitches to these trucks that have the prep package? If so I would only need to know the bed size (in order to know if you need sliding hitches or not) and what capacity (16K, 20K, 24K) you are looking for.

  • Custom No-Drill 5th Wheel Brackets That Fit 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty
    While we do have a great option for custom brackets that fit your 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty, the part you mentioned is not a confirmed fit. Instead, for brackets and base rails that fit your truck and do not require drilling I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit with Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2402. B&W is regarded as making the highest-quality towing products, and these base rails offer a combination of quality and value relative to other kits. If you need...

  • Can Truck Bed Liner Install with B and W Fifth Wheel Rail Kit
    To install the B and W Fifth Wheel Rail kit part # BWRVK2402 and the Patriot Slider hitch part # BWRVK3270 you would need to remove a portion of the bed liner so that the rails can attach directly to the truck bed. You would not be able to have a rubber mat between the rails and the truck bed either.

    Yes, the B&W Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit # BWRVK2402 is a confirmed fit for your 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty. While your RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch is compatible with any brand of industry-standard 5th wheel rails, like the B&W, it's important to point out that this is a fixed hitch. To use it with your short bed truck, your 5th wheel trailer will need to be equipped with a Sidewinder or Revolution pivoting pin box. The vast majority of the time, a fixed hitch will not provide...

I suggest the B&W Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # BWRVK2402. You can install your fifth-wheel trailer hitch in half the time with this custom bracket and base rail kit.

  • Removable 5th Wheel Hitch for 2017 Ford F-250 Short Bed without Factory Rail Kit

This is an excellent sliding hitch that features an interlocking 2-jaw system for a secure connection to the trailer and a fully articulating head for easy hookup and a stable, quiet ride. It has a 20,000 pound towing capacity and 12 inches of slider travel for cab clearance during sharp...

It will require no drilling into your truck frame as the brackets utilize holes already present. This kit will give you industry standard base rails compatible with most 5th wheel hitches.

  • Is a Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch Needed for a 2017 Ford F-250 6-3/4 Foot Bed with TurnTec Trailer
    The tapered nose on your 2015 Coachmen Chapparal 336TSIK which is referred to as "TurnTec" should not require the use of a sliding 5th wheel hitch on your 2017 Ford F-250 with the 6-3/4' bed. The 6-3/4' bed is also on the longer side of what is classified as a short bed therefore you should have no issue with turning clearance between your truck and trailer. The correct 5th wheel hitch for you will depend on if you have the factory rail kit or the pucks installed in your truck bed from...

The custom brackets will allow you to mount the 5th wheel rails easily and these rails will accommodate the 5th wheel hitches and the gooseneck adapter you have pictured. The rails are industry standard so you will have no issues with compatibility of your Curt gooseneck adapter # 16055or 5th wheel hitch between...

  • Solution for Needing Replacement Fifth Wheel Rail Brackets for 2023 Ford F-250
    The only Reese fifth wheel rail kits we have for your 2023 Ford F-250 short bed is the outboard style # RP56005-53 which is a larger rail design that you most likely don't have. If you did have the outboard style rails the bracket kit would be the part # RP56005. If instead you have the in-board style (this means the brackets attach to the inboard side of the frame on truck) it would make the most sense to go with the B and W rail kit part # BWRVK2402 which is much less expensive and would...

    For your 2018 Ford F-350 with the long bed I recommend the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16180. This is an excellent hitch that features an interlocking 2-jaw system and a fully articulating head that both contribute to a really smooth ride when towing your trailer. The head in particular is what sets this hitch apart from a lot of alternatives as it will do a great job of actually suppressing road shock and reducing a lot of that standard towing noise. Its self-aligning design will...

This can be used in short bed trucks such as your 2015 F350 with 6-1/2' bed if you also have a rotating king pin box such as the Reese Sidewinder, # RP34FR and the required Sidewinder Wedge Kit, # RP44FR.

  • 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty B&W Hitch and Air Bag Kit Recommendation
    The B&W Custom Base Rails # BWRVK2402 and Patriot 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3270 are an excellent option for your 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty and will fit just fine with the Firestone air bags. I recommend using the Red Label Kit # F95FV because it has a higher 7,500 lb weight capacity so they won't have to work as hard as the standard 5K air bags do. Please note that an air bag kit won't increase the weight capacity of your truck as it is designed to help support the OEM suspension. For an...

For the rails I recommend going with a custom fit kit like part # BWRVK2402.

    The actual position of the bed rails can vary according to which manufacturer's frame bracket you're using.

    The Curt A20 5th Wheel Hitch # C16140 that you referenced is actually the exact hitch I recommend for providing the smoothest ride with the Reese Revolution pin box on your new trailer. This ride comfort starts at the A20's interlocking 2-jaw system that will completely wrap around the king pin. This not only creates an extremely secure connection with the trailer, but it also drastically reduces movement at this attachment point and allows for a really quiet ride. In addition to the...

For that I strongly recommend the Custom 5th Wheel Installation Kit for Ford # BWRVK2402 because they do not require any drilling into the frame of your '19 F-450 to install, which is not only great for your truck but also significantly reduces installation time.

  • Which 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 Ford F-250 to Use with In-Bed Rails

The A16 has an interlocking jaw that gives you 360 degrees of jaw to kingpin contact for better security and less rattle than traditional slide bar jaws. This is a good, economical 5th wheel hitch and rail set that will work well for your 2019 Ford F-250 if you've got an 8 foot bed. If you've got a 6-3/4...
