5th Wheel Hitch Rail Kit Recommendations for a 2009 Ford F-150
Question:
are the reese universal base rails good for any reese fifth wheel hitches? I have a reese fifth wheel slider that I just bought and I want to make sure Im getting the right rails.

Expert Reply:
The Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit # RP30035-426 will fit basically all Reese fifth wheel hitches except for the Signature and Elite style that uses the underbed puck system.
You might also be interested in purchasing a Reese Custom Installation Kit # RP50081-58, this kit will install in about half the time as the universal kit and will minimize drilling on your 2009 Ford F-150. If it were me I would use this kit to save yourself the headache of installing a universal kit.
I attached installation instructions for both kits for you to check out.
