In order to use the Curt E16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16115 on a 2021 Ford F-250 you'll need the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit part # C79BR which is composed of the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails part # C16204 and Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford part # C99BR. Please not, the base rails are not sold individually.
