Expert Reply:
While we do not have a video of the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit # DM8552006-71 being installed on your 2001 Ford F-250 we do have a video of a similar Reese Kit # RP30035 being installed that I have linked below on a 2002 F-250. Both these kits use universal brackets that will require drilling into your trucks frame to install the rails. And since they both have the industry standard rail pattern they will allow for the same 5th wheel hitches to be used.
For the simplest install you can use the Reese Quick-Install Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails # RP50082-58. These brackets are custom made to allow you to bolt to existing holes in your bed frame. You will not need to drill bolt holes in the frame like the Demco brackets will require. I have also linked a video on the installation of these below so that you can see how much easier the process is.
