Video Transcript for Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit - Universal - RP30035 Review
Today we'll be reviewing part number RP30035. This is the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches. It is going to be a 10 bolt design. The base rails are going to provide necessary attachment points for your 5th wheel trailer hitch. The universal brackets are designed so that they fit most applications, and then the adapter brackets can be used to ease installation on certain vehicles. The kit's going to include both rails, four brackets, two larger ones with more mounting options, and then the two smaller ones, and it's going to include all the hardware that you need, all the instructions, and the fish wire that you just thread onto the end of the bolt, and you can bring it through the appropriate hole as needed. It makes it a little bit easier to get the bolts in the right place. Some compatible hitches are going to be Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley and Husky.
This does work with RBW Li'l Rocker Hitch Fifth Wheel Hitch. It will not fit the Reese Elite Series Signature Series or Valley UBS hitches. It's made from a nice solid steel construction with a nice black powder coated finish on it, so it is going to stand up well against rust and corrosion. That's going to do it for today's review of part number RP30035. This is the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches. .

1996 Chevrolet C/K Series Pickup
Was looking for a bolt on kit for bare frame rails for a hotshot truck. These require support in the middle (at least one center bolt in each rail). Ended up having a fabricator weld a plate for support and mount the rails to that. But I guess that's reasonable for a universal kit.
by: Matthew07/04/2024
I am very happy with how quickly my package arrived also I am a big fan of Reese products we own a Reese 20K 5th wheel hitch and that performs excellent I would definitely recommend Reese products to anyone.

This Universal Rail Kit installed with relative ease and the included instructions were clear and easy to follow.
by: John W09/24/2019
This hitch has a feature or two we didn't even expect. It was an easy install and is performing great. Plenty of maneuverability and rock stable. etrailer's service was incredible and stayed on top of the delivery until we got it. We thought they went the second mile to make sure we got our hitch.
by: Kerry 06/24/2024
Exactly what I needed. Fit perfect. Installation was not difficult.
by: Bryan02/20/2019
Best value for the money! I have used this hitch for a season now and I must say, it's worked out great. I use a Teflon plate with it and this hitch doesn't have much play in it going down the road. I have not had any issues with it sliding when locked.

2002 Dodge Ram Pickup
I am very impressed with the fit and finish. Packaging from etrailer.com was inadequate. UPS man unloaded the package, rang the doorbell and drove away before I got outside. There was a lock washer laying on the ground and a bracket was hanging out of the box. We opened the package and inventoried everything, and to my amazement everything was there. Ordering process was very easy and my order shipped quickly. While on my lunch break at work I added 6 items to my cart and printed it so I could complete the order when I got home. About 4 hours later 3 of the 6 items increased in price. This hitch increased in price by $2, not a big deal I guess. I was able to find this item about $12 cheaper at another retailer and I provided this information to etrailer.com. Within a few hours they refunded me 110% of the difference. I am installing this on a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 short bed and the instructions are lacking. Maybe a professional installer who has done this many times would not have any problems, but the instructions leave some things to your imagination.

Working great after one year of use. Use it to tow a 30 gooseneck trailer and it has worked as advertised. I bought a used 5th wheel hitch and although I have never used it, it fits perfectly in the rail system.

2015 Ford F-150
Installed these rails with the short bed Reese bracket kit for 2015 or newer f150. Installation went well. Instructions were pretty straight forward but measurements from end of bed were not quite right and put the rails too far forward of the underbed brackets by about 2". I actually measured off the cross rails under the bed of the truck after I had installed the brackets.
Helpful hint: after getting a hole drilled on either side of the front rail to secure it to brackets under bed, put the hitch on both rails which will line up the rear rail exactly right then drill the rest of your mounting holes.
The included spacers are not quite thick enough and have come out from between the rails and bottom of the bed a few times even after I tightened bolts so much, bed started to bend. Have to find some other Shem's to make it tight enough.
I would recommend these rails eventhough it took a little bit to get them in the right location.
PS - Be very careful when drilling holes on driver side as you are right over the gas tank.

Worked perfect used with airlift AL57298. Didn’t see any picture of universal rails and air bag kit working togther.

The kit arrived very quickly, in fact shipping was moved from "5 to 7 days" to "3 to 5 days"and arrived in 5 day. During Christmas rush this was great, and really appreciated. I ask a technician friend to install it for me. It went together very nicely.
I am rating this as EXCELLENT, do to the ease of installation an the escallation of the shipping arrangement. Thank You for a great product and great service.

I sent an email and was very pleased to get a response the next day, It was a universal kit RP30035, I had to make spacers for 3 of the frame brackets, the gaps were all over the map no matter how much I squared it up, all in all I'm pleased.

couldnt be more pleased, they were very helpful.
by: Brian 09/24/2018
1996 Ford F-150
I've had this system installed in my 1996 Ford F150 for a year now. I did the installation myself and found it to be relatively easy. I had to remove the rear tires to give better access to the frame, but after I did that drilling the needed holes and bolting in the brackets was straight foward. I use these rails with a gooseneck plate and have had no trouble pulling anything yet.

I installed this kit in my 2006 Silverado 2500HD to hold a Reese 16k sliding hitch. The kit is very well built and had more parts than required to complete the installation. Once installed, works great and am very pleased!
The work itself is cumbersome and a couple things to be aware of. First, I squared and centered the rails as required. Before I drilled in the bed, I set the hitch in the rails and they moved slightly and had to recenter. This only tops a few minutes but I recommend setting the hitch in the rails before drilling. Second, the alignment for the front chassis brackets was challenging. You have to drill the bottom two bolt holes to ensure you can get a wrench in the nuts as the frame is enclosed there and reaching around the tank and brake lines. The instructions were not specific as to which holes to drill.

Received yesterday, well packaged will know more when I get it on truck
by: Cindy B08/11/2016
purchased just the rails for 5th wheel receiver as we bought a used camper and the Reese Easy Loader came with it but owner did not want to remove rails from their truck. Technician was excellent in helping with installation and emailed us directions specific to my truck. Shipping was quick and install went well. We had room to use 12 bolts vs 10 so we did. We did install 1" forward in bed as we had room to do it. Better more forward when hauling. The knurled bolts were too short for our truck bed and we called and let them know. We had our own that were longer so no delay in install.

My fifth wheel hitch kit was easy to install and has worked great!! I tow my camper around the Upper Peninsula of Michigan while fishing Lake Superior and Lake Michigan and I have no worries about my fifth wheel hitch doing its job and getting my camper where I need it!

I installed the kit on a 1997 Dodge 2500. Everything worked exactly as the instructions indicated for my model. I had an existing gooseneck hitch installed, so I needed to make a few modifications to install this kit, but everything worked great.

by: Jared W10/19/2016
The product was exactly what I order, and showed up at my house way quicker than what I thought it would. The instructions were very self explanatory the hardware and mounting brackets were all together. That makes it nice for instillation purposes.
Thanks again!!

by: Brian11/05/2013
The rails are solid and work as expected. Unfortunately it was not clear to me from the description at that "universal" meant that you need to drill through the frame to install and that there was a custom bracket available as an alternative that lines up with existing holes in the frame. While they were very helpful and willing to do a return, the cost of shipping the new product and returning the old made the whole transaction a costly mistake.

Im planing to buy the same rails for my dodge diesel 2005 full box but do not want to make the same mistake so what kind of bracket and are they a must or makes it safer? thanks
by: Dominick M09/15/2019
Very easy to install with a little preparation before you start. I instructions are pretty clear. It took me and my son about 2 1/2 hours to install. I had one in my old f150 and installed the rail kit in my 03 f150. Very happy with the kit.

I purchased this hitch mount to replace my old one, which had become damaged. The mount fit perfectly on the old mount drill holes and worked with my existing 5th wheel hitch. I watched the installation video first for any tips which gave me an idea of what I was up against. I received the item fast and free, which is what I expect from etrailer. Always a pleasure doing business with you.
Thanks again
by: William02/06/2019
The product was as good as the last two I have installed in my pickups. The removable gooseneck plate solves other use of bed problems, and give an opportunity to use both theFifth wheel and goose. The only problem I can see is if a slide in camper were used, there would need to be front and rear spacers. I have also used the rails as attachments points for a removable bed crane and a removable in bed winch. Sorry, no pics at this time

Original package was damaged by UPS somewhere during transport and delivery. etrailer made it very easy to get the missing part (smaller mounting bracket fell out of box somewhere) and instead of just sending the one part they re sent the bolt kit, all four mounting brackets, and a new pull cord. So basically the entire assembly other than the base rails. Could’nt be happier and will post pictures as soon as it’s installed

See what our Experts say about this Reese 5th Wheel Hitch Rails
- 5th Wheel Industry Standard Rails, ISR, for 2017 Ram 2500For your 2017 Ram 2500, I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit, # BWRVK2602. This custom-fit bracket kit lets you mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame to minimize drilling and measuring. This will reduce installation time and also avoids known obstacles along your truck's frame. Please note the linked installation video below. The overall length 5th wheel rails is different from manufacturer to manufacturer and specific part number. There is not a universal length....

- Recommended 5th Wheel Rail Kit for a 1996 Chevy 3500HD Cab and Chassis The cab and chassis frame is not the same as the regular 3500HD so there isn't going to be a custom kit. The frame is more narrow, so you will need to use a universal rail kit like the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # RP30035. You will want to center it about 1-3" in front of your axle. To haul a gooseneck trailer, I recommend the Curt Spyder Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel Rails item # 16085.

They are the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches item # RP30035. These are confirmed to fit the 2002 Ram 2500 with the 6-1/2' and 8' bed lengths. I have linked an installation video below to help you get them set up. The Curt Universal Fifth Wheel Base Rails item # C16200 you were looking at fit the 2003 - 2012 Ram 2500s.

Over 8,500 pound GVW and it is 33-1/2 inches to the back of the rear rail. Once you have the rear rail in place use the hitch to place the front rail.

We do still have the Reese Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit # RP30035 in stock, but these are universal fit brackets which require quite a bit of drilling into the frame.

For a custom kit that will not require drilling into the truck frame you can use Curt kit # C16420-204 or Reese kit # RP50140-58.

Since your truck has such a short bed you'd need to install a Sidewinder pin box on the trailer as well. You will need to remove the pin box of the trailer and replace it with a Sidewinder pin box.

This is a bracket and hardware kit that comes with everything you would need to install the rails. We don't recommend mixing rail and bracket manufacturers so if you do not have Reese rails you would need the whole kit that comes with rails part # RP30035.

Since the instructions for your 2018 Toyota Tundra say to use a 9/16" drill bit and this is only 1/32" larger than 17/32" I would just use the 9/16" drill bit. Either drill bit will work though since the bolts have a 1/2" diameter.
