Install your fifth-wheel trailer hitch in half the time with this custom bracket and base rail kit. Requires less drilling than universal kits and provides a custom fit for your vehicle. Includes everything you need for installation.After opening the box and realized I had missing parts it worked out perfect. However had to substitute a couple spacers, nuts and one carriage bolt because the box and hardware bag ripped prior to delivery. Luckily my buddy fabricated some steel to take care of the spacers and bought some extra nuts and bolts. Could’ve been worse. I’m happy it’s in and functioning properly. Attached my 16k Reese hitch to it with no problem.
This is the way to go when installing a fifth wheel.
Bolts right up no drilling the frame only to mount the plates in the bed . Way better than the universal kit .
The kit fit perfectly. Doing it alone was easy, but if you have another person to help will make the job much easier and half the time. You're constantly under the truck then in the truck bed, back and forth, back and forth.
This is a wonderful product. Easily installed and worked perfect. Ali instructions were on the money and it looks great on the truck.
Product was great, all bolts and accessories were included. Instructions were decent but still had to watch video to get the tricks to make it easier. Package came a little damaged and a few nuts and bolts were lying in the box. Could have lost them. Maybe a better bag system to keep the heavy parts together. Other than that, really like the product.
What pleasure it was to order a product that was seamless though the whole process. I was simply impressed, from ordering to installation. Delivery was on time, and arrived in a complete package, as I have received others that weren't. Thank you
Worked great son and I installed took couple hours. Fit the way it was designed. Thank you
I've owned this hitch for over a year now and used it in two different trucks. Quality product with no issues! I would highly recommend this hitch if you're in the market!
lines up great make installation much e asier
Great service everything worked out per fect
Thanks!!!
Changed Truck models, so ordered this kit from etrailer. Have used these guys before. I had the rails installed professionally, and they work great. It did look simple enough for DYI, however I'm retired and don't bend like I used to.
Have pulled the 5th wheel camper hundreds of miles off and on. Reese Hitch lines up fine with rails, as it gets removed from time to time for other truck use.
Mechanics had some issues installing on Ford 2019 F250 - so cost me a little more but looks nice now done. etrailer staff member very knowledgeable, and item arrived sooner than expected which allowed me to get it installed sooner. Can't wait to hook it up to my new (to me) 2013 Forest River Wildwood Heritage Glen 37 ft 5th wheel trailer. I like that this hitch is lighter than others - I am 60 yr. woman so weight is issue when moving it to use truck for other uses. I can unlock it and move to front of bed and use the rest without someone else's help.
I found the quality of materials to be excellent. It has held up very well in use and in exposure to weather. My only negative is it is more difficult to disconnect my fifth wheel from my truck than other hitches I have had. Every thing must be perfect height, front to back center, and angle to get it to release.
Installed easily on my 2017 F250 6 3/4 bed with common tools. Installation instuctions are poorly written but installation is simple once you understand the concept. Prior Ford years you install front rail first measuring from the rear of the bed. This kit installs completely different I guessing due to the aluminum bed. The rear 5th wheel bracket installs first and make sure the front hole aligns with the center of the bed support. I used a punch to verify hole alignments. All holes aligned perfectly on mine. I installed by myself and dropping the spare tire helps. I did not remove rear tires.
Great experience with e trailer. Package arrived on date it said it would. Package was divided so that I could carry it in 3. Just overall guest experience and definitely will use them again. Already looking at some other products.
Install went pretty good. Parts fit good on my 2018 F-250 King Ranch. Like most of these things, it would help to have long, skinny fingers, not sausage fingers like mine, but all in all it went well. The only reason for 4 stars is because the included instructions could have been clearer. *Installation Tip - Put the self adhesive Galvanic Isolator squares on the bottom of the bed BEFORE installing any bolts.
Followed the installation as shown on the video and it went in just as described. Everything fits and the holes line up perfectly with the factory holes on the frame. It is working perfectly
This is the third time I've ordered one of these kits. They are perfect for anyone who can handle a wrench, a drill and a tape measure. Without these kits, it would be necessary to spend much bigger bucks to have a hitch installed. Extremely satisfied with product and quick service.
Brackets made install easy
I purchased this product to install in a 2019 F350 the kit included everything needed to complete the install which took me a little over 2 hrs I would suggest one watch the tutorial before starting the process I had a few question about the product before making my purchase and spoke to Wayne who was very knowledgeable I would not hesitate to make another purchase from this company
Very happy with product and very happy with performance. Thank you! I plan on purchasing from you in the future.
Ordering was a breeze, shipment was extremely prompt and I was notified with a tracking number. Watching the installation video for this hitch rail installation gave me the confidence to do it myself and save the $350.00 that my local shop charges. I have not yet installed as I am waiting to get my bed liner sprayed in this week.
If the need arises I would not hesitate to order from e-trailer again.
I have several curt products and would suggest them to anyone who is shopping for quality and dependability as well as value
Solid and easy to install. If your not familiar with fifth wheel parts and think these things look cheap from the pictures your wrong! These brackets are very thick and solid and matched my truck perfectly. Great buy if you don’t have the added factory setup
Nuts & bolts could be packaged better, they were scattered in box. Luckily nothing was missing.
Otherwise seems to be good product.
