Is the Reese Elite Series Adapter Compatible with a Draw-Tite 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch

Question:

I have a 2012 F250 super duty, with the reese underbed system. My old 5th wheel unit is a DrawTite 16k. Will this work with the 30156 adapter?

The Reese Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter, # RP30156, is compatible with your Draw-Tite 16K fifth wheel hitch as long as you have the fixed legs or the square tube slider legs. The Elite Series Adapter is not compatible with the older round tube slider legs part # 50008. If your hitch has the round tube slider legs, # 50008, then you will need to change to the square tube slider legs, # RP30048, to make your hitch compatible with this adapter.

I have attached a photo of the round tube slider legs, # 50008, if you are not able to find a part number for your legs.
