I spoke with my contact at B&W who said that you will actually use those brackets to install the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1116 on your 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty FX.

The only time that you will run into a problem is if you already do have the prep package installed on your F-250 but this would be pretty evident as you would have the 5 pucks in the bed of your truck.

I have attached a sample installation video on a 2017 F-350 that you can use as a reference.
