Fifth Wheel Recommendation For 2015 Ford F-150 With 8 Ft Bed
Question:
I have a 20K Reese hitch that is around 10 years old now. The mount rail is new because I went from SRW to DRW truck. Is there a BandW head that will mount to the rail mount. My truck is a 2015 long bed Ford F450.

The B and W Fifth Wheel we offer for your 2015 Ford F-450 Dually, is designed to be used with their own custom installation kit and will unfortunately not work with another manufacturer's system.
The custom installation kit I recommend is the B and W Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, part # BWGNRK1111-5W. This kit doubles as a gooseneck hitch when the fifth wheel is removed. This system comes with the rails, gooseneck hitch head, the chain loops and a hitch ball. This is an easy installation by using the existing holes in the frame of your F-450.
I recommend the B And W System for your truck that will give you full access to your truck bed when you are not towing.
The hitch I recommend is the B&W 20,000 Lb Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, part # BWRVK3500-5W. This premium hitch has 1 inch thick dual jaws that give you a 360-degree contact with your king-pin.
I have included a couple of videos for this system you can check out.
