What is the Difference Between Reese Custom 5th Wheel Brackets # RP56016-53 and # RP50026-58
Question:
Hi - I have a 2016 F350 cc long bed diesel. I need to install some rails for my older Reese 16k hitch. What is the difference between the RP50026-58 and 56016-53. They are both custom brackets. The 56016-53 is described as outboard but from pics the 50026-58 also looks like outboard. I see all 4 bolts go through frame bracket on 56016 but only 3 bolts on 50026. Any other differences as far as installation go. Thanks

Expert Reply:
These brackets are very similar and have very close instructions when it comes to install as well.
There is about a 5 inch difference in the location of where these brackets are installed and then when you get towards the end of the instructions there are a few difference like the torque specifications. Other than the size of the base rails, there really are no big differences.
