Where Does Rear Rail of Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Locate in Bed of 2011 Ford F-250
Question:
I have a 2011 Ford F2-50 super duty, with a Reese 16K slide fifth wheel #30051, My truck bed is 6’ 10”” from cab wall to tailgate, Can you tell me at what distance from the truck rear bed edge to the front edge of the first rail measurement should be? Thanks for any help you can give.

Helpful Expert Reply:
When installing a fifth wheel rail kit in your 2011 Ford F-250 like the Reese kit part # RP50026-58 that was custom made to fit your truck the rear rail edge will be exactly 32-1/4 inches from the rear edge of the truck bed.
You'll then need to use your fifth wheel hitch to place the front rail 22 inches in front of that on center.
