The B&W Universal Base Rails Install Kit for 10 Bolt 5th Wheel Hitches is compatible only with 8 foot bed 2002 Ford F-250 Super Duty.

You will need to use all of the bolts required to install the B&W Universal Base Rails and Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches #BWRVR3200 to use the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw #BWRVK3270. It is…

It sounds like you have B&W rails #BWRVR3200 in your 1999 Ford F-350. These are industry standard rails which do have the same mounting slot measurements you have provided. This means that the Reese 22K 5th wheel hitch #RP30033 will fit! I have…

I do have a way that may allow you to mount a set of 5th wheel base rails on your 2009 Ford F-350 while using your current airbag setup, however the Curt Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Ford part #C16448-204 will not work as the custom…
