The installation went very well. Very simple and easy to follow instructions on all three products I purchased from etrailer (hitch, rails and wiring harness.) I would highly recommend all three products.

My order shipped extremely fast and customer service was awesome. The rail system is high quality, was easily installed and works as it should.

Everything installed as designed. Not the easiest project but doable with the proper tools and careful measuring. Sturdy unit. I did replace the washers for the frame rail bolts with some custom made SS square plate as the supplied washers were too thin and deformed when the bolts were fully torqued to specifications.

Very fast shipping have not even opened the box yet or installed but so far so good

Ordering was effortless, salesman was knowledgeable, although I had done my due diligence prior to ordering! Anyways got the proper hitch and rail kit, installed the today and ready to tow! I bought the B & W 18K sliding hitch. Heavy duty and slides great!
by: Aniello07/21/2023
It's been one year since the self install of this product. I must say it is holding up no rust and no issues whatsoever. The install took a bit especially while doing it outside in the sun but very happy with product and instructions.

The B&W Patriot has worked out great for me so far. I kind of wish I would have paid the extra money to get an auto slider, but this one suffices just fine.
by: Matthew07/19/2019
I really love that the rails are custom fit to my truck so I don’t have to drill any holes at all! The order process was very easy and shipping was fast. I found that the installation time was also shorter than the listed time. I would 100% use etrailer again in the future!

Perfect kit, exactly fit, easy install. Great install videos as well.

I needed a custom 5th wheel hitch rail installation kit quickly. When I first called for some information I was disconnected, however, I believe it was from my end that it happened. A short while later I received a call from Katerina who appologised for the disconnection and asked if there was anything that she could do to help me. I explained that I thought it was my fault and that I wanted information on a 5th wneel rail installation kit. As a result I ordered the item and she was kind enough to a) ensure that the item was shipped when expected, and b) to follow up with the shipping and delivery status, without me having to check with the shipping company. I received the item a day earlier than expected and everything was perfect. I have since installed the kit and am now able to pick up my new 5th wheel trailer on schedule. Thank you very much Katrina and eTrailerk for your excellent service.

Watch the installation video. Read and understand all directions. Doing that install is very straight forward. Some tips in the installation video help. I installed without a lift, having access to a lift would make installation easier. All in all a good solid product. The custom install kit uses existing holes in the frame rails so no drilling on your frame rails. That is in my opinion the best thing about the custom kit. Installed on a 2014 F-250.

Exact fit for our 2015 F250. We installed the brackets ourselves and installation was not to difficult with the instuctions provided. etrailer was excellent to work with and met my needs when I made a last minute decision to pick up in person instead of having the items shipped

- Tools Needed to Install B&W Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit # BWRVK2401When installing the B&W Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit # BWRVK2401 on your 2011 Ford F-250, you will want to have the following items on hand: Impact wrench or ratchet with 15/16 inch and 3/4 inch sockets 15/16 inch and 3/4 inch box end wrench A drill and 1/8 inch and 9/16 inch drill bits Along with these particular tools, you will want a hammer, flashlight, tape measure, eye protection, torque wrench and a center punch. I have attached an installation video on a 2014 Ford F-250...
view full answer... - Does B and W Fifth Wheel Rail Kit part # BWRVK2401 Work With RBW Lil Rock 15k Fifth Wheel HitchThe B and W Fifth Wheel install kit part # BWRVK2401 that you referenced provides a set of rails that are compatible with the RBW Lil Rocker 15k fifth wheel hitches like what you mentioned.
view full answer... - Can PullRite SuperGlide Mount to B&W 5th Wheel Base RailsHi H.L. There isn't actually a specific weight capacity for any 5th wheel base rail kit, including the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2401 that fits your 2016 Ford F-250. Base rails are designed to meet the tow capacity of the vehicle and hitch, so those are always the limiting factor. As for the hitch, so long as your PullRite SuperGlide 2300 is an ISR series - which stands for "Industry Standard Rails", it will work with the # BWRVK2401.
view full answer... - What Fifth Wheel Hitch Fits The Demco SL34 Base Rails?The Demco SL 34 base rails will work only with the Demco SL Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches like the 6076SL-16K or 6076SL-21K. The Demco SL series hitches are unfortunately no longer available. We recommend replacing them with Industry standard rails, like the # BWRVK2401, which is custom fitted for a 2016 F-350 with a 6-3/4' bed. This will work with virtually any fifth wheel hitch made for industry standard rails.
view full answer... - 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Rails and Brackets for 2015 Ford F-250 with RBW HitchWe have fifth wheel hitch brackets and rails to fit your 2015 Ford F-250 but not RBW specifically. RBW is actually out of business. If your hitch uses industry standard rails like in the picture I attached, then you can use rails from other manufacturers with your RBW hitch. The B&W custom kit, part # BWRVK2401, is great option that fits your truck. Since they're custom fit there's less drilling into the truck because the brackets mount into existing holes in the truck's frame. I've...

- B&W 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Custom Base Rails and Install Kit for 2011 GMC Sierra 2500The B&W install kit for fifth wheel hitches that fits your 2011 GMC Sierra 2500 is # BWRVK2506. The # BWRVK2401 install kit you looked at is for Ford trucks.
view full answer... - Rail Spacing Needed When Installing The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # BWRVK2401The distance between the rails should be center to center 22" (pictured below). This rail spacing is considered industry standard. I've attached the installation video for the custom fit B&W rails # BWRVK2401 to help you with the installation so that you can have them ready to go for when your B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 18,000lbs # BWRVK3270 arrives.

- B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Hitch Mounts With ISRThe B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider, # BWRVK3270 is a great hitch option for your 2011 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty. It uses the industry-standard above-bed rails (ISR). Please note the attached image showing full measurements of ISR above bed rails. If your current Pullrite Super Glide also uses ISR, then you can confirm there is no issue. If you discover that your current rails are not ISR, then I suggest you replace them with the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base...

- Does B and W Patriot Hitch Require a Capture PlateThe B and W Patriot Hitch part # BWRVK3270 does not require a capture or locking plate to connect to fifth wheel trailer. The only hitches that do that are the ones that are auto-sliders where the head of the hitch locks to the pin box and turns with the trailer. The Patriot is a standard style hitch that pivots between the pin box and the hitch head. No capture plate needed. And also there is not angle of approach requirement that the auto-sliders have. We still recommend trying to back...
view full answer... - B and W Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for 2015 Ford F-350 for Patriot HitchB and W does not offer just the bracket kits of their fifth wheel rail kits so you'd need to go with the B and W Custom Rail Kit part # BWRVK2401 for your 2015 Ford F-350 short bed. Since you have a short bed truck hopefully you have the slider Patriot part # BWRVK3270 so that you have enough clearance to make tight turns.

This kit will include all rails, brackets and all the hardware needed to install into your 2015 Ford F-250 Super Duty. I also recommend getting # 41157 a 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness with 7-Pole Plug. This plug can be installed in the bed of the truck to simplify the hook up between your 5th wheel trailer and your tow vehicle.

view full answer... - B and W Hitch Recommendation for 2014 Ford F-250 that Can be Used with SidewinderThe bad news is that you can't use a Sidewinder pin box with a trailer that a Companion hitch installed in the bed if it's the style designed for Turnoverball gooseneck hitches. Reason being that the Sidewinder needs a hitch that attaches in 4 locations due to the twisting torque they put on the hitch. The Companion only attaches with a center post and the leverage of the Sidewinder is too much for that style. You can use the Fixed B and W Patriot Hitch though part # BWRVK3255 which is...

The custom brackets in this kit reduce the amount of time required to install the hitch as they mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame and minimize the need for drilling and measuring.

view full answer... - What Are ISR Series Rails and Will a Set From a 2005 Super Duty fit a 2013 Ford Super DutyThere was a generational change in the platform between those years, without knowing what part number you have it is challenging to confirm it would or would not. To your second question, they are most likely what is referred to as ISR or Industry Standard Rails. Meaning, that although several manufacturers produce rails to mount 5th wheel hitches, they have developed an agreed upon pattern of holes that accommodate hitches with tabbed/spade feet that are pinned into place.
