5th Wheel Installation Kit for a 2006 F-250 Superduty Universal Versus Custom
Question:
Is this the best kit to install on a 2006 F250 Superduty?

Expert Reply:
The best kits to use for 5th Wheel installation are the custom kits. According to our installers the custom kit will save you a lot of time and energy because they are designed to fit with the factory construction of your 2006 Ford F-250. The universal kit will work on your vehicle, but it requires a more difficult installation including more drilling than the custom kit.
The Custom install kits for 2006 Ford F-250 Super Duties are the Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Custom Installation Kit with Brackets and Rails, # RP50082-58, for 6-1/2 and 8 foot beds; Elite Series 16K/18K Fifth Wheel Hitch Installation Kit, # 30073, for Signature Series hitches. The universal kit is part # RP30035.
I have included a link to the instructions for all of these installation kits and a video of the custom kit being installed below.
