Expert Reply:
From the rear edge of the bed on a 2009 Ford F-150 to the back of the rear rail the distance will be 29-5/16 inches. The center of the hitch pin jaws will be 1-1/2 inches forward of the center of the rear axle when using 5th wheel trailer hitch installation kit # RP30035.
The nearest video we have with this installation kit and a Ford truck is for a 2002 Ford F-250. I have provided a link to the video and a link to the installation instructions for the installation kit for reference.
