Question:
Will the Reese 30051 5th wheel hitch fit a 2010 Ford F350 SuperDuty moving from one truck to another? And if so, what do you recommend as the proper rails/installation kit for this truck. Thanks...

Expert Reply:
Yes, you will be able to mount a Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch with Square Tube Slider - 16,000 lbs, part # RP30051, in a 2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty.
You will need a Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for the 2010 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty, part # RP50082-58, for all the necessary hardware to make the switch. You could also use a universal rail kit such as the Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for the 2010 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty, part # RP30035 to install this hitch. However, it usually takes around twice as long to install a universal kit compared to a custom fit kit due to the additional drilling and brackets that were not specifically designed for that vehicle.
If you are switching this 5th wheel hitch into a truck that does not have wiring in the bed, you may also need Pollak Wiring for the 2010 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty, part # PK11893-11932, to complete your towing setup.
I have attached directions in the link below for the custom rail kit below.
