Question:
I have a 2008 Chevy 2500 with an 8ft bed. Looking for just the under the bed frame brackets for a fifth wheel hitch.

Helpful Expert Reply:
It is always best to select frame brackets from the same manufacturer as the base rails for your fifth wheel trailer hitch. When mixing manufacturers with these two components, it is possible that the brackets will not line up correctly with the rails, as there can be differences even within parts for the same truck model.
If you are able to tell me the manufacturer or model of the base rails you have, I will be happy to recommend frame brackets that are confirmed to work.
For example, if you happen to have the Curt Fifth Wheel Base Rails # C16204, the correct custom mounting brackets for these rails and your Chevy Silverado is the Curt Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit # C16418.
