This kit uses custom brackets that line up with existing holes in the frame, so there’s no drilling into the truck frame. By skipping that step, installation takes about half the time of a universal bracket setup. The brackets mount under the bed to create solid attachment points for the above-bed rails, giving you a secure foundation without making any permanent modifications.
The included base rails follow the industry-standard pattern, so you can use hitches from B&W, Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley. Whether you already have a hitch or plan to upgrade later, these rails keep your options open while maintaining a dependable connection for up to a 24K hitch.
The visible rails feature a carbide finish that stands up well to regular loading and towing wear. It gives the rails a clean look while providing added resistance to chips and scratches over time.
The kit comes with everything needed for installation—custom brackets, rails, and all required hardware. With the correct hole spacing already engineered into the design (22" center-to-center and 20-1/2" wide), aligning and mounting your hitch is straightforward and reliable from start to finish.

Hello, everybody. this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the CURT Custom Fit Fifth Wheel Installation Kit with the Carbide Black Base Rails for Chevrolet and GMC trucks. Now, this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2007 to 2019 Chevrolet Silverado, and GMC Sierra 1500 trucks with either the six and a half foot bed or the eight foot bed. Now, on a custom fit part like this, I always like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model of vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for application.
Now, this kit is a complete installation kit. It allows you install a fifth wheel to your truck bed. And the kit will include everything shown here on the table. It includes these custom fit side mounting brackets here. The base rails comes with all the hardware you need for installation.
Even comes with some detailed instructions that'll describe how it all goes together, and they even include a brake line bracket. Now, the custom fit brackets, I wanna zoom in on those on the side here. These are a custom fit bracket, which are designed to mount beneath your truck bed. They provide these attachment points for the fifth wheel rails to attach to. They have a nice black powder coat finish to them to resist corrosion.
And what's nice about these brackets is they'll provide a custom fit by mounting to the existing holes in your vehicle's frame. You can see the holes drilled in these brackets. They'll line up with the holes on your frame, so it'll minimize the amount of drilling that's required. And in that case, it'll cut the installation time in half when compared with the universal bracket kits that are sold out there. Now, the base rails right here, these are what'll sit in your truck bed.
They allow the installation of your fifth wheel trailer hitch to them, and these rails will be visible in your truck bed. These rails here have a carbide black finish to them to match the color of your fifth wheel hitch. And these rails are industry standard rails, which means they're compatible with the BMW, the CURT, the Draw-Tite, the Reese, and even the Husky above bed fifth wheel trailer hitches. But that's gonna do it for the review on the CURT Custom Fit Fifth Wheel Installation Kit with the Carbide Black Base Rails for the Chevrolet and GMC trucks.

After a year, the rails still look like new and the brackets against the frame still look new with the original coating. The bolts under the truck have some surface rust but I live in MN so that is expected. The bolts in the bed still have their zinc coating.
Do you have a question about this 5th Wheel Hitch Rail?
