Reese's outboard installation kit for your fifth-wheel trailer hitch was designed with safety and convenience in mind. Just like the original custom mounting brackets, these brackets install using existing holes in the truck frame, minimizing installation time. The biggest difference with this outboard kit is the extended-length rails. These above-bed rails are 5 inches longer than standard, universal fifth-wheel rails so that they will match up with the mounting points on the brackets, which sit below the bed and outside of your truck's frame. The result is a much simpler installation process, wherein most underbed components can be easily avoided. Because you are working outside the frame rails, you also have easier access with your tools and more room to work, making the whole process less of a pain.
The base rails included in this installation kit feature a standard 10-bolt design. Each of these rails attaches to the underbed brackets with two carriage bolts at both ends. A single bolt is used in the center of each rail to further secure it in your truck bed. The result is a set of base rails that remains firmly in place thanks to 10 points of contact.
This entire installation kit is built to be SAE J2638 compliant and has been extensively tested per specified accelerated-life-cycle criteria for fifth-wheel trailer hitches. The requirements for testing are based on the European-style test of 900,000 cycles, making this testing process among the most thorough and intensive in the industry.

The custom hitch kit fit my f150 perfectly and the etrailer staff were extremely helpful in making sure I ordered the correct kit for the year of my truck. Etrailer is an outstanding company to do business with and I would highly recommend them.

Very patent in regards to them answering all my concern questions. E-Trailer knew exactly what I needed for my new Ford F-150 aluminum truck bed. If the product did not fit, there was no problem to return within 60 days. Delivery was on time. The tracking system was perfect. The follow up was great. The fifth wheel was installed by others, and I am very happy with E-Trailer. Thanks Guys!!!!

Outboard installation with custom mounts is the only way to go!
Save yourself alot of grief and remove both rear wheels to install. Instruction set is not quite writen to this particular kit. For the needed tool set they require a 1.25 hole saw that you never use. The cat wisker feed wires are fantastic, give that guy a raise for coming up with that idea. Forgett the little insulator squares they give you. Use heavy clear packing tape and wrap two layers on all spacers and the fingers of the custom mounts.

Watch the video; makes the job more straightforward. Workmanship and quality were very good; I was dismayed to to find my parts package torn and missing a bolt. Took some real digging to find what turns out to be a very non-standard type of bolt (Grade 8 Carriage)... finally found one in a mechanics toolbox at a local trailer rental place as I needed it right away for a trip. Finally, after getting through my first installation, I could probably do it in 4 hours as there has been a lot of thought and engineering put into the custom kit. First time installers should expect spending more like 6-8 hours for the job.

Installed on my 2017 F-150 Supercrew. Not a no drill install as sold but with a couple of tools it’s a 2 hour install at most. Local RV dealer wanted 1600 for hitch and install and additional 150 for the light plug. I got it all for Etrailer.com for 850 and about two hours later I saved myself a ton of money!

This base rail kit has custom fit brackets that are designed to fit with the frame of your F-150 so that you don't have to drill into the frame during installation. I've attached a video below that will help walk you through the installation below. Note: Does not fit models with Ride Height Sensors. While you're adding in base rails I...

This will be a custom fit that will allow you to install the brackets without drilling into your frame. Once you have the 5th wheel base rails installed, a number of different hitch options are available, but you will want a sliding hitch because you have a short bed truck. If you want a hitch that will automatically slide for you...

This can all be found on the information tag located inside the driver door jamb. If you subtract the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of your truck from the (GCWR) that will give you the maximum Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) you can safely tow.

Per the weights you mentioned totaling 10,000 lbs, that would be pushing the capacity of your truck to the maximum. You will want to make sure you stay under the total capacity for your truck. Since you have a 5-1/2 ft truck bed, you will need to install a fixed fifth wheel hitch and...

view full answer... - Are Reese 5th Wheel Rail Galvanic Isolators Required on 2017 F-150 with Spray-On Bed LinerA sprayed-in bed liner on your 2017 Ford F-150's aluminum bed will serve the same isolating function as the galvanic isolator strips supplied with Reese 5th wheel rail kits like # RP56034-53 so you will not need to use them above the bed. But you are 100-percent right that you will still need to use them below the bed where the uncoated aluminum is exposed.
view full answer... - Recommended 5th Wheel Install Kit for a 2017 Ford F-250If you have a 2017 Ford F-250 then the correct 5th wheel install kit you will need is part # RP56017-53 but if you have a 2017 Ford F-150 then the correct 5th wheel install kit you will need is part # RP56034-53. Both kits are a custom fit that will not require any drilling into the frame. If you also need a 5th wheel hitch then I recommend using the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30928 for 8' beds or the Curt # C16541 for 6-3/4' beds to provide extra turning clearance.

view full answer... - Recommended Fifth Wheel And Sidewinder King Pin For Ford F-150Since you have a short bed, the Reese wheel hitch # RP30047 you linked to will require use of a Sidewinder like # RP61422 to prevent the nose of your trailer from coming into contact with the cab of your 2017 Ford F-150 and Wedge Kit # SWW-03 to prevent the king pin from pivoting in the jaws of your hitch. To complete your set up you'll also need some base rails, I recommend the Reese Quick-Install Custom Outboard Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP56034-53...
view full answer... - Recommended 16K 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2018 Ford F-150For your 2018 Ford F-150 with the 6-1/2' bed, I recommend taking a look at the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30047. The Reese hitch has a 2 jaw locking system which provides more jaw-to-king-pin contact than slide-bar models. The 4-way pivoting head helps with hooking up your trailer on unlevel ground. The height of the hitch head can also be adjusted from 14-1/2" to 18". You are correct in that you will not need a sliding hitch if you have a rotating pin box. In order to install...
view full answer... - Can 2017 Ford F-150 5-1/2 ft Bed Tow Fifth Wheel TrailerYes, you can tow a fifth wheel trailer with your 2017 Ford F-150 with a 5-1/2 foot bed. There's only one slider hitch though that will provide you with enough turning clearance though. Most sliders can provide up to 12 inches of sliding clearance whereas with a bed as short as yours you'd need more like 22-1/2 inches of clearance. So the hitch you'd need is the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550040 which has the clearance you need and automatically slides as you make tight turns. For a rail...

Both are compatible with your outboard 5th wheel bracket installation but the higher-capacity kit # TFR1504E offers a no-drill installation. Please refer to the linked video. Both kits fit both 2WD and 4WD versions.
view full answer... - Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2016 F150 with 5-1/2 foot BedFor your 2016 Ford F-150 with a 5-1/2 foot bed the only sliding hitch solution we are going to have is the Demco Hijacker Auto Slide part # DM8550040 as it is the only one capable of sliding far enough to allow your truck turning clearance. It can slide 22-1/2 inches. For a rail kit you will want to go with the Reese custom fit rail kit part # RP56034-53 as it is a fit for your truck and is compatible with the Demco hitch. At this time Demco doesn't offer a rail kit for your vehicle but...

Rotating pin boxes push the pivot point of your trailer back 22" allowing for more turning clearance. To start you'll need to find out what the bolt pattern of your trailer's pin box is so that we can find the corresponding fit. Normally there will be a tag or stamp on the front or sides of...

Since you're getting setup for towing a 5th wheel I also recommend installing an in-bed 7-way like part # C57008. This will make connecting your 5th wheel's 7-way cable much easier and won't end up bending the cord like it would if you plugged into the rear 7-way. If you haven't chosen your hitch first then just let me know a little more about your trailer's...

If you don't already have a 5th wheel hitch, for a 6-1/2 food bed truck we typically recommend a sliding 5th wheel hitch to provide the proper clearance between the front of the 5th wheel and the rear of the truck cab. I'd recommend the Curt A20 sliding 5th wheel hitch, part # C16541. The Curt A-series offers a unique interlocking jaw system that holds the king...

The Curt A16, # C16120, is a great option for you. This hitch is rated at 16,000 pounds, so it has plenty of capacity for the Grand Design 150 series of trailers. The dual jaw design is safe and secure and the cushioned head improves ride quality. For the best fit with your Turning Point pin box I also recommend using custom wedge # C16992.

There will not be any issues with the FX4 off-road package while using this kit and it has outboard base rails which means the connection point for the frame brackets and base rails is outside of the frame rail on the vehicle which makes installation much easier.

These brackets fit all models besides Raptor's or if there are ride height sensors. Please note, these are outboard brackets which means you need the longer 58" rails like part # RP30153 or you can just purchase the kit part # RP56034-53. These are the only Reese brackets available for this truck, they will fit all bed sizes.

Instead, the correct 5th wheel installation rails are available with part # RP56034-53 and will provide you with industry standard base rails for your 2019 F-150. If your F-150 doesn't also have a 7 way wiring harness in the truck bed, you can add one with the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector for Aluminum Beds - 7' Long # C57008 to give you a much easier way to...

You will need a slider hitch with more sliding clearance than usual since your bed is so short. For that we have the Demco Hijacker AutoSlide # DM8550040 which can slide up to 22-1/2 inches automatically. Most slide around half of this which would not be enough.

With that set-up you are going to need to use a fixed hitch. I recommend the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # RP30928. This will attach to industry standard rails in the bed of your truck.
