Question:
I'm going to be putting a slide in camper in the bed of my 2018 F-250. Is it safe to put a 7-Way socket in the bed for easier connection of my camper?

Expert Reply:
Yes, it will be beneficial to install a 7-Way socket in your 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty bed, but you'll need to use a specific type of connection that comes with hardware that's safe for the aluminum construction and for that I recommend the Curt connector:
- Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector for Aluminum Beds # C56070-07
This tees in behind the bumper 7-Way socket and then you make a hole in your truck bed and install this socket in the bed for easier access!
