Expert Reply:
Since the pin holes of your rails are 27" apart you do not have industry standard rails and the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120 will not work on them. You would need to install some new base rails in your truck for the hitch to attach to. Rail kits are vehicle specific so if you reply back with the vehicle you're using then I can find the correct fitting rails for you.
I've attach a picture of industry standard rails (ISR) which most hitches will work with to show you the dimensions.
