Expert Answers about Ford F-350 Super Duty


  • Are Sidewinders With 19k or 21k Capacities Available?
  • There is a Sidewinder with a 20,000 lb capacity but not a 19K or 21K capacity. You will need to know the model number of your current pin box in order to find the correct fit. Sidewinder # RP34FR replaces Lippert 0719, 1621 and 1621HD, Fabex 663 and 665, as well as M&M 663 and 665 pin boxes. I have added a link to a help article on Sidewinders for you to take a look at as well.

  • Comparing Demco Hijacker Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitches for 2019 Ford F-350 With OEM Pucks
  • Aside from the weight rating there is really only one very slight difference; the 21K Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM8550038 has a diamond tread pattern on the base while the 18K Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM8550024 does not have this pattern. That diamond tread pattern is only for aesthetics and does not affect the hitch in any way. You are not alone in loving the Hijacker as it is one of the best and most popular fifth wheel hitches we sell for a reason....

  • Installing B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch on 2016 Ford F-350 with Bed Liner Rubber Mat
  • The B&W Companion OEM 5th-Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3300 referenced in your question is a great choice and is confirmed to fit your 2016 Ford F-350 long bed with the factory rail kit.

  • Best 5th Wheel HItch for 2021 F-350 Dually Without Prep Package
  • Congratulations on the all-new rig. Sounds exciting. I will work from the assumption that when you say long bed, that you mean 8-foot bed. For a 5th wheel hitch the B&W # BWRVK3300 that you referred to is designed for the factory prep package. The best choice would be the B&W # BWRVK3255 5th Wheel Hitch with the # BWRVK2402 mounting rails kit for the 2021 F-350. I think B&W is top-notch and the 18,000 pound rating gives you some room to grow. If it turns out that you don't have an...

  • Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter for 1999 Jayco Eagle 260 with Leland 7910 Pin Box
  • Since Reese does not make a goose box that fits the Leland 7910 pin box, your only option will be to use an adapter like the the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter # CAB-C5G. In order to find if the # CAB-C5G will work for you some measurements will need to be taken. This has an adjustable height of 12-16" from the top of the gooseneck ball to the base of the king pin box. As long as your setup falls in to this range you will be able to use the adapter.

  • Will Grille Guard Block Front Sensors on 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty
  • The Westin HDX Grille Guard with Punch Plate # W55AQ will interfere with any type of cameras or sensors on your 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty since it's basically just a big piece of metal - this will be the case with any type of grille guard or bull bar. From my understanding there is a way to disable those sensors through the settings though so you'll still be able to install this guard without your brakes being applied constantly. Attached is a review video for you to check out!
