This kit uses custom-fit brackets that mount to existing holes in the frame, so there’s less drilling and setup compared to a universal system. The design cuts installation time in half while still giving you solid attachment points beneath the bed for your fifth-wheel base rails. Everything you need—brackets, rails, and hardware—comes in the box for a clean, straightforward install.
The above-bed rails provide a strong, level surface for your fifth-wheel hitch and feature a gloss finish that matches most hitches. Once installed, they sit securely in place and create dependable connection points for towing, without taking away from the look of your truck bed.
You’re not locked into one brand of hitch with this setup. The rails use the industry-standard mounting pattern that works with popular fifth-wheel hitches from B&W, Curt, Demco, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley. That gives you more options if you already have a hitch or plan to change brands later.
