For your 2019 Ford F-350 dually without the factory 5th wheel prep we can help you with an under-bed 5th wheel install kit similar to the OEM kit to keep the bed free of base rails that can get in the way when you're using the truck for cargo applications.

For a short bed I recommend the B&W 20K Slider hitch # BWRVK3400-5W and the under-bed install kit # BWGNRK1116-5W. If you have a long bed you'll use the same install kit but instead use a fixed hitch # BWRVK3500-5W.

I strongly urge you to go with B&W because their USA-made hitch system not only gives you an excellent 5th wheel towing setup, but the installation kit # BWGNRK1116-5W also functions as a gooseneck hitch, with the gooseneck ball included. You literally get two towing systems in one setup. For an in-bed wiring harness you can use the plug-and-play Curt # C57008.

If you have a short bed and you prefer an automatic sliding hitch we offer Demco's USA-made HiJacker 5th wheel that not only offers more slide travel than most others (14-inches versus 12-inches) but it also slides automatically when you make a sharp turn. No more getting out of the truck to release the slider. You will use the Demco under-bed install kit # DM8551009 and either 18K hitch # DM8550022 or 21K hitch # DM8550037.

Choosing between the B&W and Demco setups really just comes down to whether gooseneck towing capability or the convenience of an automatic slide hitch is your priority. Videos for both setups are included for you along with instructions.
