The Cab and Chassis model is the line of pickups designed for aftermarket beds such as dumps and flatbeds. Ford builds these with different frame dimensions and the aftermarket bed will effect the installation of a fifth wheel hitch. The foot-tab measurement is the measurement between the mounting holes (front to back) where the feet of the fifth wheel set in the mounting rails, once the rails are installed. Your 2004 Ford F-350, with a standard 8 foot bed, will use the RP50082-58 Custom Installation Kit. I have posted a link to the instructions below.
