On vehicles with plastic bedliners it is required that you cut out a hole in the plastic bedliner that is large enough so that the 5th wheel rails can attach directly to the bed of the truck making full metal to metal contact. You will not need to remove the entire bedliner.

I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also.
