Yes, a fifth wheel hitch can be installed into your 2012 Ford F-150 with a bedliner. If your bedliner is a spray in liner no modifications need to be made. However, if you have a pastic liner, you will need to cut the liner to provide metal to metal contact. I suggest using a Quck-Install Custom Base Rail Kit # RP50081-58. This will decrease the amount of drilling and the amount of time of installation.
