Fifth Wheel Hitch Mounting Rails for Valley Power Pull Hitch Install on 1985 Ford F-350

Question:

I am considering buying a Valley Power Pull fifth wheel, I’m curious if you have the mounting rails to fit an 85 F350?

Valley has been out of business for many years, but unless it was one of their under bed mount system hitches, they all used industry standard bed rails, including the power pull. You can compare your hitch mounting tabs to the rail spacing like what's shown in the provided photo. Simply compare the front to back and side to side spacing of the mounting tabs on your hitch, measured center to center and compare to the photo. If the front to back spacing is 22 inches, and the side to side is 10, 20-1/2 or 29 inches, center to center, your hitch is compatible with industry standard bed hitch mounting rails.

Assuming your hitch is compatible with industry standard rails, the Reese Universal 5th wheel bracket/rail kit, part # RP30035 is what you'll need. To install a 7-way in the truck bed, use # 20023.
