Expert Reply:
It depends on what 5th wheel installation kit you are using on your 2010 Ford F-150. If you are using kit # RP30035-426 then measure from the rear edge of the bed forward 29-5/16 inches. This is where the back edge of the rear rail will be. Once it is in place you will use the hitch to position the front rail.
If you are using installation kit # RP56006-53 then the measurement is 26-3/16 from the rear edge of the truck bed.
If you are using Reese installation kit # RP50081-58, Curt installation kit # C16441-204, or # C16441-104 then you will measure from the rear edge of the bed forward 50-15/16 inches that this is where the back edge of the FORWARD rail will be.
