Is BWGNRK1116 or BWGNRK1117 the Correct Fit for a 2018 Ford F-350 Short Bed

Published 11/14/2019

Question:

You have this question, does this apply to a 2018 F350 shorted as well? On BandW web 2017/18 comes up BNRK1117 and 1116 for 2wd, then 2019 its states 2 or 4wd. Thanks for the clarification

The correct B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for your 2018 Ford F-350 Super Duty is part # BWGNRK1116 for either bed size and whether you have a 2WD or 4WD. I'm not sure when you looked at the B&W fitguide but they have updated the information to reflect that the correct fit for a 2017 - 2019 Ford Super Duty is the GNRK1116. The part BWGNRK1117 has actually been discontinued because of this (which should complicate things a bit less).

Attached is an installation video of this kit on a 2017 F-350 that you can reference. If you don't already have a 7-Way socket in your truck bed then I also recommend installing the Bargman # 50-97-410-010 which makes connecting your gooseneck trailer wiring much easier by placing a 7-Way closer to your trailer coupler. I have attached an installation video for this kit as well.
