Instructions for Installing Universal Fifth Wheel Kit on a 2010 Ford F-250

Expert Reply:

I have included a link to the instructions for the Universal Fifth Wheel Install Kit from Reese, part # 6005. Page 10 is 1999 and newer Ford F-250/350/450. The king pin should be 4 inches forward of the center line on the rear axle.

Measurements should be the same for 2008 and 2009. 2008 through the present is the same generation of the Super Duties.

You also have the option of using a custom install kit, part # RP50082-58, rather than the universal that will fit the vehicle without having to drill any holes in the truck frame. It will also save quite a bit of time during the installation process. I have included a link to a video of this kit being installed on a 2008 Ford F-250.
