I have the perfect solution for you to be able to remove a 5th wheel hitch from your 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty truck bed.
B&W their 5th Wheel Companion # BWRVK3500-5W which fits into the Custom Underbed Installation Kit # BWGNRK1116-5W. The great thing about this underbed hitch is that it is actually doubles as a gooseneck hitch. It comes with a turnover hitch ball which you can turn upside down for that clean truck bed when it is not in use.
The B&W Companion is made to sit in the gooseneck hitch for an easy install/uninstall. This setup is one of the most popular and it is extremely useful because you are ready to a gooseneck of 5th wheel trailer without having to buy more equipment or an adapter. The Companion has a Gross Towing Weight of 20,000 lbs and a Vertical Load Limit of 5,000 lbs.
If you do not already have a 7-Way installed in the bed of your F-350 then I recommend 5th Wheel Wiring Harness # A10-7010.
