Which 5th wheel hitches will work with the bed rails I have?
Hi everyone,
I recently purchased a truck to pull the 5th wheel trailer we have and the truck came with bed rails already installed. I am going to start looking for a used hitch that will work with the rails.
Are the hitches and rails interchangeable between brands? Are there certain brand hitches I need to be looking for? I was told by the PO of the truck that the rails are pretty common to many hitches.
I'm not sure how/what to describe the bed rails as....they are installed parallel with the truck bumper. Our trailer is 15,500 GVWR, so I assume I shoud look for a 16,000 pound or greater hitch.
Thanks for the help,
Phil
