Expert Reply:

It sounds like the brackets you have are either bent or not for your vehicle.

I would recommend going with a custom installation kit that will cut the install time by almost half and will reduce the amount of drilling. Since you have the complete fifth-wheel, you will just need the Reese Quick-Install Custom Bracket Kit, part # RP50064. For a the kit that includes new rails, we have the Reese 5th Wheel Installation Kit, part # RP50064-58.

I have linked instructions and a video installation of the Reese 5th Wheel Installation Kit, part # RP50064-58.
