5th Wheel Hitch Compatibility with Universal Industry Standard Base Rails

Question:

I have rails installed in my truck from a RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch. Will the 30047 fit those rails? I have been told that they are universal, but not sure who bought RBW or if there is a comparable hitch.

The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch - Dual Jaw - 16,000 lbs # RP30047 is compatible with the rails that fit your RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch. That hitch was made for industry standard size rails just like the Reese Universal Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10 Bolt # RP58058, so those rails will be compatible with most Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley, Demco, and Husky hitches that have the 4 tabs on the bottom.

The only things to consider in finding the best replacement for your rails is the capacity of the hitch needed and the sliding base needed if you have a short bed truck.

Let me know if you'd like help with a recommendation based on your truck and trailer.
