Is the Curt Fifth Wheel Install kit for a 2008 Toyota Tundra a No-Drill Application

Question:

will your kit actually bolt to preexisting holes in frame? do directions and needed bolts come with kit? will the weight be over or in front of the rear axle? do you need to remove the bed for installation?

According to the instructions, you will have to enlarge one existing frame hole and drill one new hole. The rest of the bracket install uses factory holes and weld-nuts. You will need to drill holes in the bed for bolting the bed rails to the frame brackets. Hardware and instructions are included with the kit.

The center of the fifth wheel head will be 1-3/4 inches forward of the axle. the pin weight will be centered on and forward of the axle, right where it should be.

You will not need to remove the bed in order to complete this installation.
