Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Ford F-250 with Factory Rail Kit

Question:

I have a Reese 18k stationary hitch less than a year old on my vehicle now but I keep hitting the cab so Ive decided to buy this sliding hitch. Will I need any other parts before installing this hitch in place of my current setup?

Since you have the factory rail kit in your 2016 Ford F-250 the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider # RP30084 would only fit if you used the Ford rail kit adapter part # RP30156 too. If you wanted a direct fit slider hitch you'd want instead the Reese # RP30144 which fits the rail kit directly and gives you the slider hitch you are looking for.

I attached an install picture and video for you to check out as well!
