Can You Mount 5th Wheel Rails to Inside Frame Brackets on 2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty
Question:
I have a 2022 F350 long wheelbase and i need to install my fifth wheel rails into the bed. The truck comes with the inside brackets welded to the chassis. can i mount my rails to those brackets that are already factory installed? thank you

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but no, the inside brackets aren't used to secure fifth wheel rails. If you want to use them, go with the Reese Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # RP39FR which is the same package that would have come on the truck when new if ordered with the factory prep package. This will then allow you to use a hitch for the puck system like the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch part # BWRVK3305.
If you're just looking for a super cost effective setup to get up and going then I recommend the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C79BR which you can then use with a hitch like the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16115.
