The Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Brackets # RP56016 will fit both the 2015 Ford F-250 and 2012 Ford F-250 with 6-3/4 foot beds. If you want the brackets and rails, then you will use the Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP56016-53.

To get the B&W Patriot #BWRVK3200 to work with your 2006 Dodge Ram you're going to need a set of 5th wheel rails #DM8552016-71. These rails are custom fit to your vehicle so they'll just bolt right up to the frame. It is worth mentioning…
