Ryan: Hey everybody. Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2004 Ford F-250 we're going to be taking a look at, and showing you how to install the Reese fifth wheel trailer hitch with the custom installation kit.Now just to give you guys an idea on how the rails actually look and work, I went ahead and dropped in our fifth wheel. Now the great thing about these rails is that they're going to work with many different types of fifth wheels, as you can see here. And now with the fifth wheel out of the way, we can take a better look at the rails themselves. The rails are going to have three openings here on each side, and that's going to work with most common fifth wheel hitches because that's where those hitches actually drop into place.Now these are made out of steel and they're really heavy duty and should last a long time. more
