Question:
Will the Rebel Sumosprings SS95QR SSR-143-40-2 interfere with the installation of future frame mounted fifth wheel hitch on my 2016 F150? Your site says no but I just want to make sure.

You will be able to use the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SS95QR on your 2016 Ford F-150 with a 5th wheel mounted hitch.
For the 5th wheel rails I recommend using the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit # DM8552028-71. These 5th wheel rails will use different mounting points than the SumoSprings so there are no issues.
The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550040 will work the best if you have a 5-1/2' or 6-1/2' bed. This auto sliding hitch moves up to 22-1/2" away when turning to prevent any contact with your cab. The hitch is rated for trailers up to 13,000lbs.
If you have an 8' bed the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16120 will be all you need to fit the Demco rails. This hitch has a 16,000lb trailer weight rating.
