Install your fifth-wheel trailer hitch in your truck bed with this kit. Custom brackets reduce the amount of time required to install the hitch. Brackets, base rails, and hardware included.The installation instructions of the base rails were vague at best. There was a reference to a template that was not included, and each package of the hitch said nearly the same information. The beneath bed brackets would lead one to believe that they were shaped to avoid obstructions on the frame, this was not the case and in two occasions the bracket had to be trimmed in order to avoid a rivet and have the bracket lay flat on the frame. The bolts for the frame were grade 5 , however the carriage bolts had no grade marking. At no point in the instructions was it mentioned to remove the tires for the drilling, not a big deal normally, but I was away from my shop and it added another layer that I didn't come prepared for.
have not installed yet but look good
The product was not as pictured. I had expected the rails to include the frame brackets but it didn't. After receiving the rails the manual explicitly states that brackets are to be purchased separate. Guess I should have called to verify.
My brackets were on back order for a few weeks and the day after I put my order in I had received a phone call asking me if I would want to change get my order or keep it. I kept it because I wasnt in a rush and the whole team let me know any information that came in. Delivered on time as estimated ...great customer service.. thanks for everything!
Great kit for my 1997 F250 7.3. Was easy and straight forward to install. Huge thanks to Demco for already supplying a solution for sneaking the rear bolts through the frame! The rear bolts are almost impossible to get in by hand, so Demco supplied a length of wire that the bolts are threaded into, then the wire is run through the newly drilled bolt hole and the bolt is easily pulled through.
