Question:

Expert Reply:

Due to your bed length, you will need a sliding (as opposed to a stationary) hitch whose capacity exceeds the fully loaded and ready to tow weight of the fifth wheel you choose.

For a 16K capacity, I'd recommend the Curt A16, part # C16521 or # C16541 for a 20K capacity. For either hitch, go with the # C16418-204 install bracket/rail kit.

If you'd like a 7-way trailer connector in your truck bed so you don't have to run the trailer connector cable up over the tailgate, you can install one using part # C56000.
