Is Access Hole Available for Install of Curt Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit on 2007 Ford F-150

Published 12/06/2016

Question:

I have a 2007 F150 with a 6 1/2 box. I purchased a bracket kit #16441 but I am having problems. They claim the bracket kit is a custom bolt on kit. On my 2007 F150 their is no access holes in the frame of my truck to the small square washer plates and bolts. If you have any advice I sure would appreciate some expert advice. Have a great day

The access hole used for installing the Curt fifth wheel rail kit part # C16441-204 is only present on 2009 and newer Ford trucks. Instead you would need to remove the axle bumper bolt, axle bumper, and multi-thread u-nut from the under side of the frame on driver per the install instructions which I have linked. This is step 2.
