Can Reese Outboard Base Rails be Used with Existing Brackets on a 2015 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a 2015 f 150 w a 6 1/2 ft bed. the truck already has the frame brackets mounted but the 48 inch rails are missing. Can I get just the rails and hardware? My local Trailer dealer says you cant get these rails anymore. I dont want to drill 8 more holes in my truck bed.

Expert Reply:
If you have the brackets that come with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit # RP56034-53 then yes you can acquire the Outboard Base Rails as part # RP30153 on our site. This includes all of the hardware that you need for the installation.
Please note that if you have a different brand of brackets or ones designed for use with standard base rails, like part # RP58058, then we will need to make sure that you use the same part number of base rails that were originally used. You shouldn't mix the brands of different manufacturers when it comes to 5th wheel base rail kits.
