How to Identify if a Truck has Reese Elite or Signature Series Rail Kit Installed
Question:
Hello, I have a 2008 F350 that I believe may have had this system and was removed. I have four larger holes in the truck bed. Can anyone tell me the measurements between the holes? I would like to see what the measurements are before I purchase this system. thanks.

Check out the picture I attached that shows the dimensions of what Reese Elite or Signature Series pucks would be in the bed of a truck like yours.
If you measure the center to center distance of the pucks, and they come out to be 13 by 30 inches, they are Reese Elite rails that would be compatible with the Reese M5 20K hitch # RP30921 or the 27K model, part # RP30922. If you wished to use a different hitch that's compatible with industry standard bed rails, an adapter is available, part # RP30156. The adapter would secure to the pucks, then the hitch would install, using the adapter as bed rails.
