9. The following instructions should be used to mount the fifth wheel mounting kit. Care and attention to detail will
ensure a quick quality installation. Check parts against parts list to become familiar with parts in kit. (Figure 1)
10. If extra clearance is needed to install the frame brackets, raise the rear of the truck high enough to allow the rear
tires to hang down freely. This will provide the maximum room to install the fifth wheel brackets.
If the truck is raised, be sure that the truck is properly blocked and restrained to prevent the truck from falling.
Failure to do so may result in the truck suddenly falling, causing death or serious injury.
11. Remove plastic bed liner if applicable. Plastic drop-in bed liners will be cut later. (See Figure 15) Spray-in bed
liners and bed mats less than 1/4" thick will work with normal installation instructions. Note: Consult installer for
recommended curing time on spray-in liner before cutting holes through bed.

dimple is for the goose ball only. (See gooseneck instructions if applicable.) These dimpled locations are placed by
the factory. If dimples are not present, refer to (Figure 15) located on page 9. Use a 2 ¾" hole saw to cut hole at
pilot holes. Note: Consult installer for recommended curing time on spray in liner before cutting holes through bed.
Optional: Spray under coating around 2 ¾" holes to prevent rusting.
15. Locate the area where the base rails will be inserted above the rear wheel on the passengers side. There are two
hat channels supporting the truck bed over the rear wheel. The base rails will be inserted at the location behind
the forward hat channel (FIGURE 8) located on page 6. To create clearance for inserting the rails remove
passengers side bed bolts, loosen drivers side bed bolts with T50 torx bit (#14) (Figure 1), and block up
passengers side bed.
