Will 2010 Ford F-250 Use Same Fifth Wheel Install Kit as 2003 Chevy Silverado
Question:
I had the 16k pro series hitch in an 03 chevy silverado pickup and now I am wanting to install it in a ford f250 pickup. Will the installation hardware that I have work on the f250? If so, where can I get the instructions to install the hitch. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Unless you have used a universal install kit like part # RP30035, the install kit you used for your Chevy will not work on your F250. The Custom Install Kits use bracketry that typically match up with most existing holes in the truck frame.
For the 2010 Ford F250, your best installation option would be the Custom Install Kit, part # RP50082-58 which is custom designed for your truck. The custom kit can reduce installation time by up to 50 percent.
