Question:
Will these legs work with a Reese 20k hitch I purchased from you guys a couple years ago?

I took a look at your account and it looks like you ordered the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider part # RP30084 a couple of years ago. If you have the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider then the Replacement Legs for Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Super Duty part # RP30923 are not compatible because they are designed for the M5 hitches. They are also designed to attach to the Ford OEM prep puck package.
If you have a new truck with the Ford OEM prep package and want to continue to use the Reese 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Square Tube Slider part # RP30084 I recommend to use the adapter part # RP30156. The adapter will drop down into the prep package and give you industry standard rails in the bed of the truck to attach the Reese hitch to. I have attached a video for your reference.
If your new truck is has a long bed you may not want to use the slider anymore. You can keep the hitch in the towing position all the time. If you start to experience a rattling noise because of this you may consider switching out the slider for fixed legs with part # RP30727.
The adapters fits the following trucks:
2011 - 2014 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 6-3/4 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2015 - 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty 6-3/4 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2015 - 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty 6-3/4 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2011 - 2014 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 8 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2015 - 2020 Ford F-250 Super Duty 8 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2015 - 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty 8 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
2011 - 2020 Ford F-450 Super Duty 8 Foot Bed with OEM Prep Pkg
