The Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Rails and Installation Kit - Slide Bar Jaw - 15,000 lbs # PS30128 will not void your warranty. Consumers of aftermarket products are protected by the Federal Magnusson-Moss Warranty Act. I recommend looking it up for all the details, but it basically states that if something breaks on your vehicle and you take it in for warranty repair, the dealer must honor your warranty unless whatever modifications you have added to your vehicle actually caused the problem in question.

If you want to avoid drilling into your frame it is probably a good idea and provides for an easier installation. I recommend using the custom fit brackets # RP50087 which will use mounting holes already present in your truck frame so you won't be altering the frame at all but simply bolting brackets to the unaltered factory frame.
