Hey Mike! The short answer is no, the B&W Custom Mounting Brackets #BWRVR2402 will not work with your Reese rails. These brackets are designed specifically to pair with B&W base rails like #BWRVR3210, and they aren’t intended to be mixed with…
Hello Travis, thanks for reaching out. No, the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness #C69CR is not going to be long enough to reach from the factory 7-way to the back of the bed on a 2022 Ford F-350. If you need to add a 7-way to the bed, you will…

Hey David, we have the Torklift Front Camper Tie Down part #TL87CR that is a confirmed fit for your 2025 Ford F-350 long bed. How did you end up with just the rear set?
Generally speaking, the lube plate will need to cover the skid plate on the 5th wheel hitch. There are some pin boxes out there that will recommend a specific lube plate but most of the times this classification will be from the 5th wheel hitch…
Hello Ron, I am going to have to disagree with your installer. I wouldn't say that one is easier to operate over the other, with both the B&W and Curt you would need to get out and use the lever to slide the hitch. Both the Curt E16…

Hey Justin! It looks like you have the Curt Helux #C75MJ in the photo there. The Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch #DM29GV will work with this pin box as long as you use the Demco Autoslide Locking Plate for Lippert Helux Pin Boxes #DM53KV. What kind…
Most manufacturers are in the process of discontinuing their fifth wheel tailgates with the camera relocation kits due to mechanical issues. Therefore I could not find one that fits your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty. The Stromberg Carlson 4000 Series…
Ordered the part on Saturday and had it by Wednesday. $35-$75 cheaper than I could find anywhere else. I plan on using this site again.

Plastic 5th Wheel Tailgates with Lock
No frills, just what works. Plastic 5th wheel tailgates keep weight down for easier handling and can make hitching smoother with improved rear visibility. Choose with lock for basic latch security, though the open V can still allow access on some setups, and minor latch or cover adjustments may be needed to dial in the fit.
Most current options don't include a camera relocation. A simple workaround is adding a license plate camera for plug-and-play backup view. Some owners have pressed the factory camera into the grommet after trimming for clearance, but check your truck's harness and space first. Confirm cable routing and test image before finalizing.
Installation is typically quick, with some done in about 15 minutes. You may need to drop the spare tire and unplug the camera, then remove the factory tailgate and swap it over. Check pivot bushings—some kits include only one side—and be ready to sand rubber inserts for a snug fit. If a side cover doesn't line up, adjust or support it before tightening.
It's designed for light loads and convenience, not heavy-duty standing or sitting. We've seen plastic versions listed with a 100 lbs capacity, so avoid using it as a seat or step. The locking knob can feel snug or a little stiff; work it a few times and check that it fully engages. If you need more support at the sides, inspect the covers and hardware during install.
It helps keep the gate closed, but it's not a high-security setup. The V opening can let a hand reach the latch under some tonneau covers, so plan storage accordingly. Make sure the lock operates smoothly and fully seats. If there's side-to-side flop on the latches, adjust them or the striker position to reduce movement.
