The B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails comes with custom-fit brackets that mount to existing holes in the truck frame. This means less drilling and measuring, a cleaner setup, and a faster install overall. The brackets sit beneath the bed and provide solid attachment points for the above-bed rails, giving your hitch a secure foundation that avoids known frame obstacles.
With these 10-bolt base rails, you’re not locked into one hitch brand. The rails use the industry-standard pattern and work with hitches from B&W, Curt, Demco, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley. Whether you’re running an older hitch or planning to switch brands later, these rails give you the flexibility to stay with what works best for your setup.
The sturdy, powder-coated steel construction resists corrosion for long-term reliability. Each kit includes two base rails, custom brackets, and all necessary hardware—everything you need to mount a 5th-wheel hitch securely in your truck bed. It’s a simple, tough setup built for consistent towing performance.

You did know your product as I was unsure because my dodge ram was a new body style and parts wasn't available thanks helping and great job
They were worked great and better quality then I expected.
Thanks for all the help I will be calling you again when I need more stuff
Great price and very fast shipping.Customer service was very helpful when I called to order my hitch.
Great product heavy duty quality. Good instruction for an easy installation.
This no drill hitch is a very well built product. The directions are very precise and easy to follow. Some mechanical experience is required as newer trucks have some obstacles to deal with. I highly recommend this product.
I purchased the rail kit for my 2020 Ram 1500. Worked great and install was fairly easy! Also, etrailer is a great company to work with and very experienced with any questions you might have.
PERFECT FIT. THANK YOU.
Very satisfied with 5th wheel rail kit. Installation was simple and it worked out great. No problems!
I called etrailer on a Friday to order some base rails for a brand-new 2019 Dodge ram that I had just purchased. There was no information on the website for this truck, so I had previously called them to see what kit I needed.
My issue was timing as I needed to get the rails installed on Wednesday. They sent the product to me second day air at a reasonable cost.
The rails arrived today in two boxes. The 2 boxes could've been banded together as one package, which would've reduced the freight cost. That was the only negative in my experience.
In checking with my mechanic/installer today, the rails were installed, and it was a very challenging process. The cost was $429 for installation. I'm glad I didn't try to do it myself given the feedback I received from my mechanic.
Missing some hardware. Poor packaging.

I'll get that missing hardware out to you, Landon. I'm sorry that happened!
Ordered this for my new 2021 RAM 1500. Order came in a timely manner. Instructions were easy to follow and installation went very smoothly. Product is very well made. My hitch fit into the rails perfect.
hey Jane S,
Just finished installing my 5th wheel hitch. I didn't have to cuss but a few times in the process. Here is my suggestions to stop others from cussing. The instructions could have been planner. Instead of mixing a truck with air suspension and coil spring suspension, divide them on separate sheets. I also didn't like mixing carriage bolts with hex head bolts, not professional looking. Hex head would have been easier to tighten also. Also instead of using crush washers, nylon locking nuts would have made the job quicker and easier.
The product was well made and fit well after we got by the instruction part.
Order came quickly. It fit my Ran Laramie 1500 perfectly
Very good quality and worked like a cha rm.
First, my package arrived on Tuesday and upon opening it I discovered the base rails were missing. Called right away and spoke to Peyton who was extremely helpful and polite, she got my missing base rails shipped within 2 hrs of speaking with her, so kudos to her you earned a customer for life. Now the kit itself, I found the directions very easy to follow and everything fit perfectly. It is a little time consuming to complete so figure on 4 to 6 hrs to finish. Over all I'm very pleased with the kit and more so the customer service. Installed on 2023 ram 1500 big horn
