Underbed Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-250
Question:
If this rail kit is the same as if i would have ordered it on my 2018 F250 SD why doesnt it have the center puck for the goose neck puck?

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Ford F-250 short bed without the factory OEM rail kit we do have under bed fifth wheel rail/hitch setups available. The best option would be the B and W Turnoverball rail kit part # BWGNRK1116 as it allows you to use the best slider hitch available the Companion part # BWRVK3400 and also because it doubles as a gooseneck hitch too.
I attached an install video for this rail kit on a similar 2017 Ford Super Duty as yours for you to check out as well.
