This 5th-wheel hitch is rated for 20,000 lbs gross towing weight and a 5,000 lbs vertical load limit, giving you plenty of strength for heavy trailers while still being easy to handle. The hitch itself weighs just 84 lbs, and its two-piece design means you can lift it out without equipment when you’re done towing. That makes it quick to free up your truck bed for other hauling jobs.
The unique coupler bolts around your trailer’s king pin to create a ball-style connection point that drops right into the open funnel on the hitch head. The wide funnel makes it easy to guide the ball in, even when you’re working alone. You can see the connection clearly from your cab, so lining up and locking in feels smooth and predictable every time.
To keep your trailer riding level, this hitch lets you adjust height between 15-3/4" and 18-3/4". The extra 3-1/2" cab clearance makes a real difference when maneuvering or hitting dips in the road. Once it’s dialed in for your setup, it stays solid thanks to the fixed above-bed design that mounts to standard rails.
The hitch body is made from black powder coated steel that resists corrosion and stands up to long-term wear. It’s tested to SAE J2638 standards for strength and safety, giving you confidence every time you head out with a heavy load behind you. A 5-year limited warranty backs up that durability so you can focus on the road ahead instead of your gear.

Hello, neighbors, it's Brad here from etrailer, and today I'm with Nick, the hitch guy from PullRite and today we're taking a look at your rail kit for a lot of different trucks out there. And rail kits are great for someone that wants to add a 5th wheel into their truck, uses factory spots and normally they're not too bad to get installed or so you think until it's time to torque down hardware. And you guys have solved the problem. So what do you guys offer and what makes it different Yeah, so all of our rail kits, we're still using preexisting holes so we're not drilling into the frame of the truck, but where our products or these rail kits really shine would be when you're going to torque everything down. The hardest part of torquing a rail system down is torquing the rail to the bed of the truck because that torquing needs to happen underneath the truck bed in an area that's really small and restrictive to get your tools, a lot of times you end up having to use a crow's foot. So what we've added are these nut tabs onto the bracket and we ship these with serrated flange nuts.
So that bracket gets bent down a little bit, then you drop the nut into place, then you just squeeze that bracket back and now you have the nut in position on the bracket. So when you go to install this on the truck's frame like that, this is sitting between the bed and the frame of the truck. So instead of using a carriage bolt on the top, we're going to supply hex bolts that you just run through the base rail, tighten it up, so now you have full access to all the hardware to easily torque it into the bed. And that may seem, you may be looking at that and go, "Okay, well that can't be that special," but as someone that's installed a ton of these, the hardest part is, you know, you get everything bolted up and you just hand tighten and then when it's time to torque, you're underneath the truck with a torque wrench trying to get to spots that really aren't accessible sometimes with a tall socket. So using a crow's foot seems like a great idea, but when it's a high torque, those spread.
I've busted my knuckles plenty of times and it does sometimes become a two-person job with someone up top, you know, making sure that hardware's in place and it's still just a pain to really get that torqued down. So installation, you guys have really cut this down by a lot and a lot of the headache from the installation is solved by this, so awesome design. Anything else that makes this stand out from other rails Yeah, it's all included. So you're going to get one box that has all of your hardware, your base rails, your frame brackets, a product that you're just worried about, one box showing up at your doorstep. So all of that stuff's going to be right inside of it.
That's awesome. So again, this tab, this is them forward thinking, this is solving problems. As an installer, there's a lot of times I find that manufacturers do things and I go, "Someone wasn't thinking, you know, someone didn't really think about the person doing the install." And that's our goal here is to always try to make the installations easier by our videos. But seeing something like this, this makes me very happy and if you're installing a rail kit on your truck at home, it's gonna do the same for you. So definitely a cool option if you're putting rails into your truck.
I'd highly, highly recommend taking a look at the PullRite options simply because of that ease of installation, takes all the negative parts of putting a base rail kit in and fixes that. So a rail kit will allow you to put rails in the bed. And are you limited as to what 5th wheels you can put in it No, the rail systems, they're industry standard rails. So all of the hitches that are, whether they're the PullRite brand or another brand, they're interchangeable between those two rail systems. The other thing that makes our rails unique is that we test everything to the SAE J2638 testing standard. So there is a weight capacity associated with these base rails and frame brackets. We're one of the few manufacturers that do that. That's awesome, and that's peace of mind, you know, when you're hauling heavy equipment, that's probably, you know, a big investment. You wanna make sure that, you know, you're not worried about that it's gonna hold up long term. Yes for sure. Well, thank you. Huge thanks to Nick from PullRite from taking the time to show us the 5th wheel rail kit that they have available for your vehicle. And it's important when getting a rail kit, as he mentioned, it bolts up to a lot of the factory spots already in the frame so you don't have to drill but you wanna make sure that you have the proper fit. So using our fit guide, putting your vehicle information is gonna help you make sure that you get the right kit for your truck and you'll be able to drop your 5th wheel in and hit the road in no time. So thank you again, Nick, appreciate it. My pleasure, Brad.
