Video Transcript for Review of Pullrite 5th Wheel Hitch Rails - Custom Installation Kit - PUL47RR

Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the PullRite Custom Installation Kit with the base rails for the fifth wheel trailer hitches. Has a 20,000 pound gross towing weight capacity. Now this is a custom fit part. It is designed to fit the 2013 and newer Ram 3500 trucks with the six and a half foot bed and without the OEM prep package. And on a custom fit part like this, I do like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the Fit Guide, put in your year and model vehicle, and it'll show if this will work for your application.

Now this installation kit will let you mount your fifth wheel trailer hitch in the bed of your truck. The mounting brackets, which we've installed on the ends here, these will install beneath your truck bed. And then they provide the attachment points for your above bed base rails. The base rails right here, these are what'll provide the necessary mounting points for your fifth wheel hitch. Now the mounting brackets we mentioned right here, these are custom fit mounting brackets.

They're designed to mount to existing holes in your vehicle's frame so it minimizes drilling and measuring, reduces installation time, and it'll even help avoid known obstacles along your truck's frame. Now one of the best features on these PullRite brackets that I really like are the built in nut tabs. And what those are is they're tabs on each corner of the mounting brackets right below the slotted bolt hole. So where your bolts go, there's a tab here that'll. And what that does, let me just zoom in to try to show you up close.

On this one right here, you can see that thin piece of metal right here. And what those do is these tabs will eliminate one of your biggest problems when installing these mounting brackets on your vehicle. Lots of times when you install a fifth wheel mounting bracket on your vehicle, they don't give you any room underneath there to hold the nut into place while you put the bolt in. So what this does, this is will keep the nuts in place when installing those bolts in your mounting brackets. Basically what you'll do is this thin piece here, you'll bend down, slide the nut into the slot, bend it back up, and it'll hold the nut in place as you put your bolts in.

And they are on all four corners. Just to show you an insert, there's the underside of it to show you what we're talking about. You can see there's the cutout in the tab. You put the nut in there, bend it back in place, and it holds it there when you put your bolt in. Very nice feature to have. Now this kit is compatible with PullRite, B&W Patriot, Curt, Demco, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, and even the Reese above bed fifth wheel hitches. These parts are a black powder coat steel construction, which is corrosion resistant. It includes everything shown here on the table, the two base rails, the custom mounting brackets, all the hardware you need for installation, and even a nice set of installation instructions that'll describe how it all goes together. These parts are made in the USA and again, the gross towing weight capacity on this kit is 20,000 pounds. But that's gonna do it for a look at the PullRite Custom Installation Kit with the base rails for your fifth wheel trailer hitches.
