Expert Answers about Ford F-450 Super Duty


  • Can a Leland 7921 5th Wheel Pin Box be Replaced with Gen-Y Hitch or Reese Goose Box
  • I do have a solution for towing your trailer with a goose neck hitch but, there is not a direct replacement available that will easily bolt-on in place of your current Leland 7921. Reese does not, as a direct bolt-on, make a Goose Box that fits as a replacement for a Leland 7921 pin box, neither does Gen-Y Hitch. However, in talking with the Rep at Gen-Y, she stated they provide an option for a custom hole pattern and suggests calling Gen-Y directly for their Customer Service to walk...

  • Floor Mats for 2005 Motorhome on Ford E450 Van Cutaway Chassis
  • We sure do! The 2005 Ford E450 has the same floor pan as the passenger/cargo van so the fact that your motorhome is on a cutaway van chassis won't change the fit. The WeatherTech # WTW51TN mats you'd looked at are a fit. I'll link you to the other fits we offer for your motorhome.

  • Availability of Aluminum 5th Wheel Tailgate for 2018 Ford F-450
  • My technical contact at Stromberg Carlson advised that they are currently in the process of testing 5th wheel tailgate fits for the 2018 Ford Super-Duty pickups, including the F-450. The best information they can give at this time is that existing 100 Series (steel) 5th Wheel Tailgate # VG-15-100 is expected to be a fit but they have not completed testing yet.

  • Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package 27,000 lbs.
  • Hi, I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package 27,000 lbs. it is # RP30922. This is a confirmed for the 2019 Ford F-450 Super Duty. This should match up to your 2015 Keystone Raptor. The Sidewinder is currently only available at a max rating of 20K but this is not the Airborne model. The Airborne is available in 16K. If you have full use of your 8' in the F450 then a sidewinder is not going to provide a lot of benefit, this is intended for use in...

  • 7-Way Harness for 2008 Ford F-450
  • Since your F-450's wiring has been cut the easiest way to go is to use 7-way connector kit # PK11998 or the same item with a new 7-way socket, part # HM40975-11998. Both of these include butt connectors to let you splice a new U.S. Car connector to your existing wiring. You'll want to use a tester like # PTW2992, shown in the linked video, to identify the function on each vehicle wire and match those functions to the wire assignments on the new harness. If you also want to have a second...

  • Is There A 5th Wheel Hitch For A 2001 Ford F450 Cab And Chassis Flat Bed?
  • The only option for installing a 5th wheel hitch on your 2001 Ford F-450 cab and chassis flat bed is to install universal 5th wheel rails such as Reese Universal Base Rails # RP30035. This is not a custom-fit setup, nor is one available for your vehicle. This requires it to be installed through a 1/2" steel plate under the deck and the plate must be welded to brackets that are bolted to the truck frame by a qualified professional. The hitch, such as Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch -...

  • The BedRug Impact Truck Bed Liner # BR79VR is our only liner that covers the floor, walls and tailgate on your 2019 Ford F-450. While they do not offer this with cutouts for your gooseneck hitch you will be able to cut the holes in the material if you rather not remove the floor for towing.

  • How to Power a Furrion Monitor in an RV That Does Not Have a 12v Outlet
  • I do have a solution for you, but the only power cord available for the Replacement 7" Monitor for Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Camera System # FR47FR is the Replacement Furrion Monitor Power Cable # C-FOS07TAPK-006. There is not a USB option available. That being said, you can add a 12v outlet to your RV using the 12 Volt Outlet Kit # RM-9332 which would provide you with the 12v outlet needed to power the monitor with the current power cord.

  • Adapter for Ford Factory 5th Wheel Prep Package for Use with a Standard 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
  • The Reese adapter you are looking for to use a standard above the bed 5th wheel hitch with the Ford factory under bed system is # RP30156. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you. Make sure that your Valley hitch mounting tabs are 22 inches on center front to back. The side to side measurement on center should be either 29 inches or 20-1/2 inches. Take a look at the picture I have included as an example of the side to side measurement.

  • How to Install B&W Companion for Ford Prep Package in Truck without Puck System
  • To use a Companion hitch made for the Ford Prep in a truck without this feature you will need to replace the hitch base with part # BWRVB3500 and also install the Companion installation kit # BWGNRK1108-5W.

  • Is there an Offset Ball for the Ford Factory Gooseneck Trailer Hitch
  • I wish I had better news for you but there isn't an offset ball that fits the Ford factory gooseneck hitch. However, depending on the design of your gooseneck coupler you may be able to use the B&W Extend-A-Goose # BWTEXA4200. This coupler features a 10 inch offset for more clearance. I have linked a video review of this coupler for you.

  • Mounting Option for Furrion Vision S 7 Monitor
  • To my understanding the Furrion backup camera system has had a few different makes but for the current version, the Vision S that uses 7" monitor # FR47FR, only the Suction Cup Mount # FR79SR is compatible. An older version may have used a different holder type (or had a few different options) but if you have the Vision S you'll need to use the suction cup mount.

  • Is 2012 Chevy Silverado Available with Factory Fifth Wheel Prep for M5 Series Fifth Wheel Hitch
  • I spoke with my contact at Cequent Towing Products, who manufactures the system for Ford. They are not aware of any Chevy factory provided package that allows instant installation of the M5 series like that available from Ford. Rumors have been circulating for some time that a similar system will be available as a factory option from Chevy, but neither I nor my contact at Cequent have anything more concrete than that. To install a Reese M5 Series hitch on that particular vehicle, the...

  • Which WeatherTech Mud Flaps Will Work On A 2009 Ford F-450 Super Duty Dually
  • I spoke with my contact at WeatherTech about the mud flaps on a 2009 Ford F-450 Super Duty dually and this is the information they gave me. If you have factory fender flares and/or fender lip moulding on your 2009 Ford F-450 dually you would need the WeatherTech Mud Flaps - Rear Pair, part # WT120029. They do not have a front set of mud flaps for a dually with fender flares and/or fender lip moulding. If you do NOT have factory fender flares and/or fender lip moulding on your Ford F-450...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch Install Kit for 2004 Ford F450 with F350 Bed
  • Reese offers a universal fifth wheel hitch installation kit, part # RP30035 that is compatible with your 2004 F450. There are some model years where the F350 and the F450 could use the same custom install kit, part # RP50082, but the custom install kit has not been tested on a 2004 model. If your F450 with the F350 bed on it was originally a cab and chassis truck, the install kit will not work, as the frame layout of cab and chassis models is different. If your truck originally had a...

  • Replacement Rubber Grommets for Pack 'Em Shovel Rack for Utility Trailers # PK-23
  • Pack 'Em does not offer replacement round rubber grommets for their Pack 'Em Shovel Rack for Utility Trailers # PK-23. My contact there has not had a request for these before now. I can think of a potential solution for you, however. You could get a length of rubber tubing, such as our oil line # D15701 and cut a slit along its length. Then simply cut it to the length required to fill the round opening in the Pack 'Em rack and simply slide it onto the edge of that opening. A utility knife...

  • Replacement Furrion Wireless Camera System
  • For the Furrion RV Observation Camera System # FOS43TASF Furrion no longer offers a replacement monitor since that system has been discontinued. My contact at Furrion confirmed. So unfortunately you'll need a complete new camera system. I recommend their wireless system # FOS05TASF since it has a larger 5-inch monitor, infrared night vision and digital signal transmission for clear images without interference. Please refer to the two linked videos to see more on this Furrion system.
