How to Use a Reese 16K 5th Wheel Hitch with an Under Bed System

Question:

Is there a way to incorporate a gooseneck in the under the bed RP30126 rail kit? I see some sort of structure in the inside center of the rail kit with 4 slotted holes as if it is intended to place a gooseneck of some sorts.

In order to achieve your goal of using the Reese 16K 5th Wheel Hitch with an under bed mounting kit on your 2015 Ford F-250 with the 6-3/4' bed you are going to need to use both the Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel Install Kit part # RP30126 and the Reese Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter part # RP30156. This is the only option for you to use the Reese 14K Classic with an under bed mounting system.

If you would like to tow both a 5th wheel and gooseneck trailer then instead of the Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel Install Kit part # RP30126 you are going to want to use the Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # RP30138-26 which is essentially the same as the factory prep package.
