I have attached a video below that shows the removal process of the one-piece wheel well liner on a 2011 Ram 3500. This can be seen at around the 1:15 mark. Please note, there are two B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitchs for a 2011 Ram 3500, part # BWGNRK1308 for gas or part # BWGNRK1313 for diesel. view full answer...
In the installation instructions for the B and W Companion Rail Kit part # BWGNRK1012-5W that you referenced it states that some trimming of fender liners can be required. If you check out the install video that I attached around the 1:15 mark we show how to remove the fender liner so that the hitch can be installed.
You'll notice that at the end of the video the handle for the hitch hangs lower than the fender liner so it didn't need to be trimmed. The vehicle in this video is a 2015... view full answer...
The base of the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045 needs to sit directly on the truck bed, which means you do have to cut the bed liner on your truck for the Recon to properly secure.
If you check out the accompanying photo a customer sent in of the Recon installed on their truck, you can see that a section of their bed liner is cut and the Recon fitting nicely.
The base measures 28 inches front-to-back (as in from the tailgate to cab) and 30-1/2 inches... view full answer...
There is no problem installing a fifth wheel hitch if you have a spray-on bed liner as long as the bed liner is fully cured. If you are looking into adding a spray-on bed liner to your truck, then you will want to check with the installer regarding cure time and make sure it has fully cured before you install a fifth wheel hitch or bed rails.
We do not recommend installing a fifth wheel hitch on plastic bed liners because it will crush the bed liner when under a load and a plastic bed... view full answer...
I called B & W to double check, and they recommend either removing the plastic bed liner or cutting out the liner where the Companion Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3500-5W will rest. This is so the hitch has the best possible surface to rest on. Additionally, the fifth wheel trailer hitch would likely crush the plastic bed liner. The liner could also prevent the hitch from inserting into the gooseneck hitch.
A spray-in bed liner will not present a problem for a fifth wheel trailer hitch. view full answer...
If your bed liner is the spray-in type, you can simply install the fifth wheel hitch rails directly on top of it. However, if your bed liner is the hard plastic drop-in type, the liner would need to be trimmed away so that the bed rails have direct metal-to-metal contact with the truck bed. If the rails are installed directly over a drop-in liner, eventually the portion of the liner under the rails will deteriorate, which would cause the rails to become loose and lead to a dangerous situation.... view full answer...
To activate the lever for the underbed gooseneck ball, you will need to cut the wheel well liner of your 2001 Dodge Ram when you install the underbed Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch with Installation Kit # C60734.
This is needed for you to be able to easily reach the hitch ball's lever. I have added a link to the instructions as well as a video review for you to check out if you'd like of the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch with Installation... view full answer...
If your pickup has a drop-in plastic bed liner it will need to be trimmed before you install the Curt 5th Wheel Base Rail Kit # C16420-204. 5th wheel rails must make metal to metal contact with the truck and the drop-in liner will interfere.
Spray-on liners are ok for 5th wheel rail installation since they cannot shift in the bed as a drop-in liner can. view full answer...
On your 2010 Dodge Ram 3500, there are several possible 5th wheel installation kits that you may have used, all have different torque ratings. For the 5th Wheel Installation Kit # RP30035-186.

The base rails for a fifth wheel hitch cannot be installed over plastic bed liners. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way to provide metal to metal contact. The base rails may be installed on a spray-in bed liner. I am including a link to an excellent video of trimming a bed liner for fifth wheel rails.

If the bed liner in your 2011 Ford F-150 is a slid-in or drop-in liner then you will need to trim the liner in the foot print of the base rails (or remove the liner if you don't want to trim it). If you have a spray-in liner it will be fine.

The industry standard rails included with the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Rails and Universal Installation Kit # C16116 can be installed on 2000 Ford F-250/350 with a bed liner.
If the bed liner is a spray in there is nothing different when it comes to the install, but if you have a plastic bed liner you will need to trim it in the area where the rails sit so that they are touching metal.
In addition to a 5th wheel hitch you may also be interested in the 5th wheel wiring harness... view full answer...
The great thing about the Elite/Signature Series fifth wheels and installation kits is that they require you to do very minimal cutting and alterations to your existing truck bed and liner. You will only need to cut and drill four small holes into the bed of your truck to install the rails and have them functional with a Signature Series fifth wheel or gooseneck. The liner will not have to be removed and the truck bed will not have to come off. view full answer...

The Namsco Wheel Liners # NA7195D0 fit the front and rear dually wheels on your 1994 Oshkosh X-Line and they mount as shown in the linked diagram. Lug nut covers are included but not the actual lug nuts; you'll use yours.
The rear dual liners are held in place by some of your lug nuts and the hub covers are held by the others. Once you have tightened all the lug nuts to spec to secure the liners and hub covers, you'll apply the included lug nut covers.

For the 12 gauge blue wire connection you will not have to remove the liner completely. You will only need to remove enough of the screws to allow you to be able to find the connector inside the fender well.
Many have trouble finding this connection and if you wish you can actually run the wire another way. The wire is simply the factory brake output. A simpler way of running the wire would be to run it into the vehicle and connect it to the blue wire on the brake controller harness.... view full answer...
Before you have the liner sprayed in I would recommend you tape off the the fifth wheel rails so that once the liner is installed you could peel the tape off and your rails would be unaffected yet the rest of your truck bed would be protected. view full answer...
