Expert Reply:
Yes, the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 will fit with the Rail Kit # BWRVR3200 on your 2001 Ford F-350 having an 8' bed. I recommend also installing the Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 41157 when you install the hitch. This will allow you to connect the wiring inside you bed rather than stretching it over the tailgate and down to the bumper connection which can risk damaging your wiring connection.
