Hey Mike, you can swap the leg kits of the Reese M5 hitches to allow them to fit different truck puck kits. So if you wanted to swap the Ford setup you have now to fit a GM rail kit you'd want the part # RP86FR that you referenced. This will fit the rail kit of the 2020 to present GM trucks. How did you like the M5?
