As Me-Again pointed out, all of the weight is carried by the bed of the truck when using the Andersen Ultimate hitch. I'd have to look in depth at the truck bed to see if I thought it would hold up to the weight and potential flexing. Personally I probably wouldn't use one with 5er of any size if I had an aluminum bed. That said, I would avoid the aluminum bed if possible as I use my bed for a lot of stuff, much of which would seriously scratch and gouge aluminum.
There is so little wieght on the bed there is a set of filler pads you glue to bottom when you put in truck 1st time . Line them up with the dips and this stops the small amount of twist some have, usually less than 1/2 in is what I experienced . No bed bending but then I drive a real truck, Chevy :B
Wrong! All the weight is carried on the bed floor. Like safety chains Andersen is not completely truthful on such things.
Ask them if they are willing to warranty any bed damage and see what they have to say. While you are at it ask Ford if they will warranty their new aluminum bed if an Andersen or Companion hitch dents it.

My question is, will B&W repair dented beds, because they certainly have damaged beds. I doubt there is any warranty for bed damage on B&W or Andersen.
Explain the safety chains ,and what Andersen is not truthful about, thats seems to be a new one, not heard that one from you guys before, but have heard plenty from you on the Andersen although you've never owned one. Just curious what they haven't been truthful about.
FYI Andersen is coming out with a puck system for all three GM ,ford, and Ram. Its in the works. You could have saved a little money not having to buy that expensive picture frame ,and B&W hitch ;) Oh! wait you are part of the Ram ,and B&W Mafia, Andersen wouldn't work with you guys :B
