The online world can be unpredictable for sure -- Im glad we could help you get the correct bracket. Where are you headed to next with your 5th wheel?



by:

I am glad I bought this kit for my 2011 ford f250. It fit really well and went together much easier than the universal kit would have. In my opinion this is a must have when installing a fifth wheel rail kit. Definitely worth the money.

Still holding up great. Never regretted the purchase yet!



by:

The kit fit perfectly and all the parts where there. Mounting the 5th wheel bedrails from my 2005 to 2015 Ford was a concern but this kit made the install as easy as having purchased a whole assembly maodel specific.



by:

awsome fit truck like a glove

I recently acquired a pro-series
5th wheel hitch without installation hardware for my F250. I acquired etrailer part number RP50026 easy install bracket kit and RP58430 hardware kit. I received the kits promptly, kits were complete and the instructions were plain. Everything fit the way they were supposed to. I didn't have to move or remove anything on the truck to install the hitch. I would recommend etrailer to anyone for all trailer needs.



by:

Overall not too hard to install. Drivers side inside front frame rail nut was the most time consuming as it is hard to get your hand between the frame rail and the fuel tank. But this kit makes the install time way shorter as you don’t have to drill holes.



by:

Didn't necessarily need these but worked great and made the hitch install very easy.

Great



by:

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. From the order to the tracking to the Quality of the product. Your tracking system is one of, if not the best I have seen. your web browsing kept me in the right product category for what I was looking for, It didn't take me to a hundred widgets I didn't need. The brand you sold me was 100 over 100 from quality to the the install, no surprises, no adjusting to fit, just bolt and go.



by:

I installed these custom brackets in my truck today using the hardware included and also the replacement hardware kit I ordered for attaching my fifth wheel rails to the brackets. They fit perfectly in my 2016 Ford F350 King Ranch dually with the 8 foot box. I am once again pleased with etrailer.com for their customer service and fast shipping!
I had installed the same brackets 8 years ago in my previous F350, again with good results.

I will continue to use etrailer.com for my needs, and recommend to all my friends.



by:

Very easy to use if you have any ability at all. Directions were easy to follow. Two of the hole did not line up perfectly with the rail hole but could be made to work . All in all a very easy to work with product. When you purchase this you need the hardware kit. Had everything that was needed except the wrenches and the drills. Went together in two hours not the four and a half the trailer dealer said it would take.

etrailer is the best they know their products fast delivery with everything I needed.



by:

These bracket kit went into my F-250 with no problems. To install the brackets and the Reese 5th wheel rails took 4 hours, with the help of the wifes small hands to get one nut on.



by:

Your product worked great. The instructions that you sent was helpful
Thanks it is better than having to buy a new hitch.



by:

The service from etrailer is so great I look at other places but come back to them ,they are very knowledgeable.
Yhak you for all



by:

Received the parts this afternoon and three hours later, my fifth wheel was hooked up. It took three hours doing the installation by myself.
I did have to drill two holes into the frame of my 2008. One on each side. Very happy with the product. Great fit!



by:

Part fit perfictly, installed quickly, heavy duty, delivered prompt



by:

Just what my husband needed and then the easy installation makes it great because he had an accident and can't grip hold of little screws and these screw together without holding both pieces... a very happy customer



by:

Perfect fit. Easy installation.
Highly
recommend!!!



by:

2013 F250, 8ft bed, gasoline eng, easy to install, fast shipping and very well made. I'm an average mechanic and it took me about an hour to install these and the rails.



by:

I called and told them exactly which brackets I needed and I received brackets for the wrong make truck



by:

Good craftsman ship. I have not installed it yet but definitely heavy duty.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Rail Kit and Hitch for 2015 Ford F-350 Diesel
    For your 2015 Ford F-350 Diesel, I recommend starting with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50026-58. These rails and brackets are compatible with the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank on your truck. These custom brackets require no drilling into your truck frame. You won't have any issue with the hitch height and your bed rail height. Then if your have a short bed truck, I recommend the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Round...

  • Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for 1999 Dodge Ram 2500
    For your 1999 Dodge Ram 2500 long bed there are only universal fit rail kits available due to the age. Best solution we have is the # RP30035. I attached an install video for this in a similar Ram truck as yours as well.

  • Correct Reese Quick-Install Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for a 2015 Ford F-350
    The correct Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for a 2015 Ford F-350 is part # RP50026. If you already have the base rails then keep in mind you will still need the hardware to attach them to these brackets, the Replacement Hardware Kit for Fifth Wheel Base Rails part # RP58430.

  • Rear 5th Wheel Base Rail Measurement for 2011 Ford F-150 XLT with 5-1/2 Foot Bed
    For your 2011 Ford F-150 XLT, the # RP50026 is not a fit for your 5-1/2 foot bed. It is a fit for the 6-1/2 foot or the 8 foot bed. For the 5-1/2 foot bed you will need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50081-58 or # RP50081 for just the brackets. With this kit the rear edge of the rear rail will be 28-11/16 inches from the rear edge of the truck bed.

  • Recommended Custom 5th Wheel Rail Brackets and Hardware for 2015 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    For your 2015 Ford F-250 Short Bed, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50026. This will give you the custom brackets so no drilling into your frame will be required. Then to install your rails, you will need hardware kit # RP58430. This combination will allow you to properly install your Reese Sliding Hitch in your truck.

  • Reese Custom Brackets for 2016 Ford F-250, 6-3/4 Foot Bed Compatible with 10-Bolt Above Bed Rails
    The custom brackets you want to use with your Reese Universal Base Rails # RP30035 for your 2016 Ford F-250 are the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit # RP50026. These brackets will work well with your above-bed rails that have the 10-bolt design. The Reese Custom Fit Brackets # RP50026 will not require any drilling to install on your F-250 with 6-3/4 foot bed, and they are designed to accommodate the Diesel Exhaust Fluid tank on your diesel truck.

  • Will the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30075 Work With Reese Quick-Install Bracket Kit # RP50026
    It's going to come down to the height, specifically the pin box height, of your Forest River Impression 290VP to determine if these will work together. With your trailer on even ground, you will need to measure from the ground up to the pin box. Then you will need to compare that measurement to the hitch height on your 2016 Ford F-250, which will just be the height of that Reese hitch plus the 59" you already measured. The difference in these measurements will determine how you will need...

  • Correct Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 2012 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
    The # RP50026 is designed for Ford trucks and will not fit the 2012 Silverado 2500. The correct kit for your truck is the Reese Chevy/GMC Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50066. If you need the entire kit with the rails then you want the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50066-58 instead. I attached an installation video for your reference.

  • Which Reese Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit Fits 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500
    For a Reese fifth wheel bracket kit that does fit your 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 we have the part # C16418 but the kit you mentioned does not fit. Worth mentioning is that this is just the bracket kit and does not include the rails. If you need rails as well you'd need the part # C16418-204.

  • Recommended 5th Wheel Bed Rail Custom Brackets for a 2003 Dodge Ram 2500
    For your 2003 Dodge Ram 2500, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP50140. These custom rail brackets will work with the holes already present in your truck frame so you can install your bed rails in your truck without needing to drill holes in the frame itself. These brackets will work with any industry standard bed rails. I also recommend the Replacement Hardware Kit for Fifth Wheel Base Rails - 10 Bolt # RP58430 to install your bed...

  • Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch Installation Kit for a 2006 Ford F-250
    We do have some custom 5th wheel brackets that will fit your 2006 Ford F-250 but # RP50026 is actually for newer Ford trucks so they will not fit your 2006. If you already have Reese rails then you can use frame brackets # RP50082. These custom brackets fit your truck and can be used with Reese 4-bolt or 10-bolt industry standard above the bed rails. If you do have rails and they are 10-bolt (with square holes on the side flanges and each end of the rails) the you will also need bolt kit...

They will provide mounting points for industry standard 5th wheel rails. These brackets should be used with Curt rails. If you are looking for the entire set including the rails you will want the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ram Truck - Carbide Finish item # C16427-204.

  • Brackets and Hardware Needed to Install Reese Trail Boss 15K 5th Wheel Hitch in 2013 Ford F250
    The Reese Trail Boss 5th wheel hitch you mentioned would work just fine in your 2013 F250. You'll need the Reese Quick-Install custom brackets, part # RP50026 as well as the 10-bolt rail replacement hardware kit, part # RP58430, both of which will provide you with all new install hardware. If you have any of the old mounting hardware, please don't reuse it, it's designed for a one time use only.

  • 5th Wheel Frame Brackets for a 2012 Ford F-250
    If you already have the Curt Custom 5th Wheel Bracket Kit for Ford part # C16424 on your 2012 Ford F-250 then you will want to use these with the Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails part # C16104, not the Reese Universal Base Rails part # RP58058 or part # RP30035 because you cannot mix and match base rails with frame brackets from different manufactures.

  • Reese Under-Bed 5th Wheel Rail Kit for 2002 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
    The correct Reese under bed rail kit for a 2002 Silverado 2500HD is part # RP30061. With the pucks installed, you can then use a puck mounted hitch like the Reese Elite Series, part # RP30144 or the older Signature Series. Or, you could use an adapter like # RP30156 in the pucks, which would let you use any hitch compatible with industry standard bed rails. To install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, use # 50-97-410. You can see some installation videos by clicking the provided...

  • Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for a 2016 Ford F-250 Short Bed
    If you are looking for the complete fifth wheel rail kit for your 2016 Ford F-250 short bed you would want the part # RP50026-58 which is a custom fit kit that would install much quicker and easier than universal rails. If you only needed the brackets and not the rails you would instead want the part # RP50026 and # 58164 for new hardware for the rails to the brackets. This hardware is designed to be torqued down one time so you would need the new hardware kit to replace what you have.
