Custom brackets work with B&W universal above-bed base rails (BWRVR3210 - sold separately) to let you install your fifth-wheel trailer hitch in the bed of your truck. No-drill frame brackets offer a simple installation. Hardware included.Hi George, the installation went almost perfectly. The only problem my head with the kit you sent me was part number 16. The 1/2 x 8 1/4 x 4 1/2 U bolts could have been 1/2” longer on the 4 1/2” threaded ends. We were barely able to get nuts on those things. Once we got nuts on and tighten them down we put giant C clamps on there and I did one side at a time and put the washers on. Other than that the kit you sent me was great. Please refer to the pictures I sent you. The fifth wheel is not sitting exactly over the rear end. I don’t know if that is of concern or not. I was told it is supposed to sit exactly over the rear punkin. If you’ll notice the angle of the hardware on the patriot base, it looks to me like I could turn it around and get that fifth wheel a little further forward. Or maybe I just need to move the brackets forward. I have the base pointed now with the patriot logo pointing out the back and the information tag pointing towards the front. I’m assuming that’s the way it goes.Any information or guidance you could give me on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to you and everybody in your company again for the outstanding customer support I’ve gotten through this whole deal. You guys really are great.
