Hi Francis; the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit # C57008 can be installed with a bed liner. However, the installation process depends on the type of bed liner. If it is plastic it must be trimmed for metal to metal contact. If it is a spray-on liner then no modification is required. With the bed rails installed you will be able to use the A20.

Hey Francis, how did things go with the Curt bed rail kit on your F150’s bed liner? Did trimming the plastic liner or using the spray-on setup work out as expected? Your update could make it easier for the next person working with the same setup.
