Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 2018 Ford F-250 Long Bed

Question:

I like that this hitch has a height adjustment, Is this a good choice for my 2018 F 250 longbed ? My 5th wheel is 33foot with a GVR of 11,850.

If you are looking for an entry-level fifth wheel hitch and rail kit and don't mind a more difficult install and a rougher ride quality the Pro Series Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit part # PS30128 will do the job.

A much nicer option would be a hitch with an adjustable head but also a jaw design that holds the king pin of the trailer tighter so that your ride is smoother like the Reese 16k hitch part # RP30047 and then a custom install rail kit like part # RP50074-58 as it won't require frame drilling and will greatly shorten the install time.
