Question:
will this cover work with a 5th wheel in the bed of the pick up truck
asked by: Charlie T
Expert Reply:
The first thing you will need to do is determine the height of your bed rails on your 2010 Ford Super Duty, and then determine the height of your fifth wheel hitch.
If the height of your bed rails is higher than the fifth wheel hitch then yes, you would be have a fifth wheel hitch installed into the bed of your 2010 Ford Super Duty and have the Bestop BestRail Hard Tonneau Cover System, part # B1613501, installed and acting as a tonneau cover when not pulling a fifth wheel trailer.
If your bed rails are shorter than your fifth wheel hitch, you might be able to remove the head of your hitch to give you enough clearance.
When you decide to pull a trailer you could simply remove the three modular panels and you would have access to hitch up your trailer.
