Hey John! Yes, the PullRite Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # PUL82MR will fit your 2026 Ford F-250. I'm not sure why it is only listed for the 8' bed right now but it also works with the 6-3/4' bed like yours.

Do you already have a 5th wheel hitch?

Hey David! Sorry to tell you but there were some major changes made between the 2022 and 2023 model years for the F-350's. The 2023 model year was the first for the 5th generation Ford trucks so the Reese Under-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item…

Hey Jeff, you do not need to use safety chains with the PullRite Single Point SuperLite Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter #PUL33RR due to how the safety chain laws are written. Since the hitch does use a hitch ball in a traditional sense…

Hi Tom; I can definitely help you out. For your 2025 Ford F-250 I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch #BW73FR. The hitch ball stores upside down in the hitch when you aren't using it for full bed access. It also…

For your 2017 F-350 short bed, the clearance calculation is the measurement from the cab to ball center minus 1/2 the trailer width. This will give you the minimum clearance. If that number is positive the trailer will not interfere with the cab of…

Answer 12

You can refer to the linked diagram for general guidelines about minimum clearances required when towing. If you have 8 or 9-inches of vertical clearance between the bed rails and the trailer you should be fine since 6-inches is considered adequate…
