Delivery was good as was their communication Really like the hitch. Install took about 3 hours. Video is helpful. Would definitely recommend.

I have the frame brackets in place and one of the two rails installed. It took about 2-3 hours to get two of the 10 bolts for those two parts. I ran into an issue with the forward bolts on the outside of the rear support rail. I'm guessing I happened to get my measurements off by 1/8 of an inch. Luckily I had a grinder and was able to grind down the modified nuts that hold it in place. We will see how the second rail goes tonight. Everything else was spot on, so I'm not sure how I messed up those two holes.

This shipment came sparsely/poorly secured to it's pallet. the Box holding the Installation Kit and Base Rails was incomplete and missing the two rail sections. These rails are the beginning ingredient to installing the 5th wheel hitch to your vehicle. The box was closed and from all appearances was packed without them and shipped to me incomplete. This ongoing situation is further compounded by the horrible customer service response that is on it's second week of calamity. The first week was wasted by a customer representative known to me as Noah promising me that the missing rails would be shipped out UPS on Monday with a sincere apology and that I should receive them by Wednesday of the coming week. This action proved to be dully noted on the file but not performed or followed up by Noah. No sense of urgency from these people? When the promised delivery day of Wednesday passed I called Thursday to find out it was not even shipped yet(raising the question? When were they going to let me know?) After a totally illogical conversation with a young lady (who was loosing her patients for me) repeatedly explained that "etrailer" was waiting 5 days as company policy for the freight company to find the missing parts even though the box was not damaged or tampered with? I then asked to speak to a manager who assured me that she would ship the rails UPS and provide me with a tracking number going on day two and no tracking number, email or phone call from Jennifer? I'd stay away from this company and find one of the many other resources to buy your trailer needs. From all appearances they seem to perform well unless customer service has to get involved and then you are hung out to dry like me?
FYI: I have never complained online before this... but felt compelled hope this was helpfull!

I went to hitchkin to put it on. And they could not put it on because the toolbox and bedliner was in it. So I took it and bought your setup and the instructions told me exactly what. To do I left the Toolbox And cut Dad. liner as needed. It was about four hours to put it in every Thing lined up perfectly.

Rails and brackets very well made and heavy duty, Had a little trouble getting the spacers in between the bed and brackets but after we removed the spare and dropped the DEF tank it made it a lot easier (just fyi)

2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty
This is a very well made product! Exact fit for 2017 F250. No drilling except for installing the bed rails. This is not difficult if you follow the instructions. This also fits up to my Reese 16k slider hitch!
by: Glen07/16/2023
When I placed the order it was my 4th go around trying to get the type of hitch I wanted. I was assured that this would fit my truck. I received an email indicating the same thing along with my question. The voice experience was very assuring and positive. The delivery was right on schedule. The installation took only three hours and works well. All the way from ordering to installation was positive. Would order from this company again.
by: Jeremiah 08/03/2023
Easy to follow instructions for installation. Slider makes hair pin turns much easier. We haul a 15k-16k trailer on it no problems.

My new 2019 F350 did not have the factory fifth wheel prep so to make my Demco hitch work I ordered this custom rail kit and I am very happy with it. Install was easy and painless since the factory frame had hole right where they needed to be for these brackets. It is a robust set of rails and brackets and will meet my towing needs for sure.

Great product, the Fifth Wheel mounting kit fit my F-250 nicely. You cannot take shortcuts on the installation - you MUST follow the instructions and videos on E-Trailer website.
by: Jim C III03/17/2021
2021 Ford F-250 Super Duty
Installed under a B&W 18k slider. I installed through a drop in bed liner (cut out openings with reciprocating tool). The only advice I have to make install easier is to not have wheel well liners installed, horrible to put in, let alone take out and put back in. The rest of the install was pretty straight forward on a F250. This is my 2nd installation of these rails, I installed on my 2018 F250 as well as my current 2021.
by: Scot06/10/2022
Rail kit arrived undamaged and on time. Easy to install. Can’t ask for more than that.
by: John 04/14/2023
The product is very well made. It’s very heavy duty. I didn’t realize it was going to be that tough to put in. The first rail closest to tail gate was fine. The driver side rail bolted to the frame was very difficult. I had to drop the def tank just to get the washer and nut on. Even then it was pain staking. Once I got that done it was just a matter of tightening bolts. When I saw the clip on how to install I thought that that can’t be that bad. Next time do a clip on diesel trucks. Thanks John

This is how my product arrived. Just got home from work to find this on a Friday afternoon. Wonder if all parts are inside to do my project tomorrow?

Jeep Patriot
Here is a video of our purchased of the BW 18K Patriot Slider in action. With our 6 3/4 foot bed we prefer hooking up with the hitch in the rear position.
by: Melvin 05/28/2023
Perfect fit. Installed in less than 2 hours my myself. As long as you get the measurement from end of bed to rear rail right everything lines up like a jigsaw puzzle after that.
by: Keith02/15/2021
I ordered this just a few days ago and haven't had a chance to install it, but my review isn't about the product. etrailer went above and beyond with my purchase. Their customer service is great and the communication throughout the entire process of confirming purchase to confirming delivery, is by far the best I have ever experienced with online ordering.
Once my order was received, I was notified via email, once it shipped, I was notified, and once it was delivered, I received an email from Etrailer to confirm delivery.
On the shipping spectrum, my order shipped extremely fast and was delivered 3 days ahead of what they projected. The tracking process was updated throughout the delivery, which showed me every step of my order, and that was very easy to track and once again, the best experience that I've ever had with online purchases. On a side note, this was my first time ordering from this company, and I am very impressed. The website is a little confusing at times...I almost ordered the wrong part because the notice that it didn't fit my vehicle didn't exactly stand out to me.
Still, they get 5 stars from me and I definitely recommend.

The package arrived early. The brackets and rails are powder coated GREY! Not gloss black. So I spray painted them black to match my frame and hitch. Also comes with the tape for dissimilar metals,as my bed is aluminum. All the hardware appears to be included.

Everything looked great. It shipped very quickly. However, 2 of the large bolts that go through the bed was missing. We went to Tractor Supply and bought. That's why I only gave a 4 star rating.

I am glad that you were able to pick up the hardware you needed. I just wanted to make sure that it was grade 8 rated bolts that were used. If not let us know and we can get replacements sent out.

view full answer... - 5th Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2021 Ford F-250 Super DutyI suggest you either have a slide type hitch or a rotating turret type pin box on your 5th wheel, then you can use a fixed typed hitch. One option works just as well as the other option. The big influence of one over the other is if you are buying items to match with already purchased items, i.e. someone has a high dollar hitch in a their trade-in long bed truck but gets a new tow vehicle with a short bed. They will frequently change out the pin box to match the fixed hitch. Others,...

I will work from the assumption that when you say long bed, that you mean 8-foot bed. For a 5th wheel hitch the B&W # BWRVK3300 that you referred to is designed for the factory prep package. The best choice would be the B&W # BWRVK3255 5th Wheel Hitch with the # BWRVK2402 mounting rails kit for the 2021 F-350. I think B&W is top-notch and the 18,000 pound rating gives you some room to grow. If it turns out that you don't have an...

If it does not, then you'd need to add base rails with # BWRVK2402 and use the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # BWRVK3255 as the Companion is only compatible with their turnoverball system or OEM pucks.

The dual jaw locking system provides 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact this allows for a secure coupling that is far superior to to slide bar models.

I really like the A16 hitch since they jaws on the head interlock to provide much better jaw to kingpin contact than other hitches. Additionally, because the head on this hitch is fully articulating it assists the coupling process and will provide a more stable, quiet ride and better overall towing experience. I've...
