Question:
I have the 30126 rails installed on my 2013 short bed Ford. Will I need to remove the bed to install the RP 30138 gooseneck kit ?

Expert Reply:
Not at all, I checked the installation instructions for the Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Head Kit # RP30138 and you will not need to remove the bed of your truck to install this hitch in your 2013 Ford Super Duty with the Underbed Rail Kit part # RP30126.
You might need to lower the spare while torquing the install hardware, but that's it.
