Under-Bed Rail and Installation Kit for Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel and Gooseneck Trailer Hitches

First, your customer service rep was the best. She was extremely helpful and very pleasant. Secondly, the hitch shipped so fast (we were in a hurry for it) so that was very wonderful! We installed the product the same night as we received it, the instruction were very straight forward and made installation easy. And we're now ready to pick up our new fifth wheel. Thanks again for all of your help! These comments also apply to product RP30142 the fifth wheel hitch with wiring harness. 48892

This product was purchased to add to my 2012 F250 shortbed pickup for the ability to pull my fifth wheel camper. It was delivered very quickly but I did pay for the 3-5 day shipping. Within an hour of it's delivery I was installing the unit. It comes with a very detailed instruction book and there is also a video highlighting the installation on etrailer's website that is very helpful. The hitch installed in about an hour with air powered tools with just myself. Be warned this is probably a 2 person install part due to the weight of the rails. It is very well made and fits perfectly. I highly recommend this product if you do not want the conventional rail system. I did need an adapter to make it work with my existing sliding hitch. Part number RP30156. 325669

Went in very easily in a 2011 super duty long bed - by myself, installation took about five hours for hitch rails and in-bed 7 pin connector that came as a kit with 18K head, but i was moving slowly. Head unit came pre-assembled. The rails themselves are very heavy, much heavier than my old above bed rails - I have no doubt this will last forever. It'll be nice to have the whole bed of my truck without rails in the way - there is absolutely nothing that rises above the bed floor. 22506

Great product. And purchased from a great company! The package was pretty beat up when it arrived (one end of the box was hanging completely open). But I doubt etrailer had anything to do with that as it was taped from top to bottom. Most likely it was a shipping and handling issue. But surprisingly, all of the parts were in the box. The one bracket had apparently taken a little impact as a little of the black finish was off, but it's a hitch... so it'll be fine. The hitch install went as described in the instructions. And the installation videos online were a tremendous help. The biggest suggestion I can make... don't expect to install the hitch without lifting the bed. And when removing the bed bolts, expect them to be tight - very tight their entire length. But installation went well and the results look great. Now we just have to wait for some better weather to go camping. Thanks for a great product at a great price. 355930

I cant believe its been a year since I installed the new rails. Having the rails under the bed is the best idea ever brought to the 5th wheel community. If you are wondering which rails to buy - stop debating and buy the under the bed type!

My new F350 didn't have the under bed 5th wheel mount and I didn't want to use the rails that bolt across the bed. I bought the Reese under bed parts, Reese adapter, new legs for the hitch and a bed mat and installed it myself. I drilled through the dimples in the bed, bolted in the under bed parts and everything lined up nice. Since I went from a short bed to a long bed I didn't need the slider legs so I replaced them with fixed legs. When the hitch and adapter are out of the bed, nothing is in the way on the floor. I like it. 243481

Very satisfied with the 5th wheel kit. Installed it myself in about two hours. I subsequently added the gooseneck kit also. It would have been smarter to do both at the same time. Nevertheless, the product is well engineered and fit my F350 perfectly. 567634

Perfect fit. Installed with minor difficulty removing bed bolts. 560016

Easy to install and instructions easy to read. Very solid. 517901

I’m rating this 4 stars only because the box came mostly open and the hardware was missing. ETrailer responded very quickly to my email and followed up with the hardware ASAP. The initial package came early, and the follow up hardware came a few days later. No big deal, since I’m not installing right away. Thanks to Jessica Band George J for making this right. 510063

Very pleased with the product and service. Great to do buisness with a class act. 491511

It works like it's supposed to and quick and easy to remove the hitch with this puck system. Installation was not too bad and I did it myself. I removed the hitch so I could haul some plywood and it was very easy and only took a couple of minutes. Great product ! 488400

Have not had the opportunity to install it yet but just the construction gives you a good feeling on the fit and performance of this of this mount. 470937

good product, easy install but have new bed bolts ready. I had to cut 3 of mine that would not break loose. 458059

The fifth wheel flush mount hitch is great. The biggest problem was the hitch was not shipped on time And it arrived 2 days late. Plus the parts are heavy and it was poorly package and the package arrived busted open and the one frame mounting plate was missing. I needed to have it installed the next day but could not because of the missing part. Contacted etrailer and UPS to try and track down the missing part. Lucky UPS did locate the part the next day. The main issue is that Heavy parts are not packaged adequately. 426222

This thing is built strong and simple to install. Etrailer is very easy to order from I like that they keep me notified of my orders progress every step of the way. I also like the install videos,makes me think maybe I can install something myself so I have to buy it to see. 378173

This part was well worth the price as it allowed me to adapt my present 5th wheel hitch to the underbed rail system. I did not have to purchase a new 5th wheel trailer hitch to fit the factory 5th wheel prep option on my Ford F-250 Super Duty. 364207

Great

I bought this under mount system because I had the Ford factory system on my last truck so I already owned the receiver. My new truck didn't have the factory option. It all works good together. My only complaint is that the receiver is very heavy to remove from the truck bed. I finally bought a chain hoist that I hang from my garage ceiling that allows me to remove the receiver alone. I also bought a 4 wheel platform that allows me to roll it over to the side of my garage when not in use. I guess heavy duty is a good thing, but my son has a different system which is rated just as high in his F-350 which is a much lighter lift when he wants to clear his truck bed. 242151

This is the second set I have installed, the first was on a 2006 F250 and this was on a 2016 F250. This new one was easier to install as there are no holes to drill in the frame and you don't have to fish bolts through the frame. The install time was about 2 hours less than in the 2006 . GREAT product. 235546

Etrailer is top notch, excellent customer service. I like the Reese under bed 5th wheel system. It is nice not dealing with rails in the bed. The install took me longer than 4 hours, I found it necessary to block both sides of the bed to get the system in place. It took a little finesse to get the front drivers side bolt in (bracket to the frame bolt). It is above the fuel tank, had to use a long socket extension and sneak the nut in from underneath. The only problems I had were the powder coating was flaking off in spots on the rail system. I had to scrape it down sand off the rust that had already started, prime and paint it. And there were no instructions in the box. 217535

Once I loosened the truck bed it was very easy to get your unit installed. Everything went together as advertised and it fit all the bolt holes perfectly. I installed the Reese Elite hitch on the unit and will be picking up our new camper in April to start our first of 3 cross country adventures. 175845

Received package that had a lot of tape at both ends and wondered wtf. Then I tried to move it and then knew why. HEAVY. Was missing two pucks. but everything went together and had no problems. Good product and will let you know when I get the other 2 pucks. 163491

Took a long afternoon to get it in, parts are massive. Haven't had the 150 ft lb torque wrench out in years. I am going to enjoy hitching without those rails in the way all the time. 159990

Customer service was excellent. Product was back ordered, but etrailer kept me up to date on the progress and expected shipment date. Package arrive in great condition. Instructions were easy to follow and installation time was about four hours. Removing spare tire makes the installation much easier. 118114

Excellent product 34595

Product installed exactly as described in the instructions without any problems. 15339
