Question:
I have a ford f250 and I have the pucks in my truck. I have just purchased a fifth wheel camper and hitch but the guy said that I will need to get the rails for it. What rails do I need

If you have the pucks in your Ford F-250 you actually already have a rail kit. The Reese Elite Slider part # RP30144 will fit right into the pucks. If you have a short bed truck this would be the hitch to get to allow you clearance to make tight turns.
If instead you have a long bed you would need the stationary version of this hitch part # RP30921.
