To mount your B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 in the bed of your 2022 Ford F-250 Super Duty you'll need a base rail kit like the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2402.
This kit comes with custom fit brackets that will fit with the frame of your F-250 to utilize the factory holes in your frame and speed up installation dramatically. These rails are compatible with B&W, Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley above-bed 5th-wheel trailer hitches if you ever plan on switching out to hitch to a higher capacity.
I've attached installation videos below for both the rail kit and the B&W Patriot to help you in this process.
