Easy to assemble, Fits and works well. My only point of concern was the treaded portion of the assembly was difficult because the treads were not clean. I had to purchase a 5/8th tap & die to clean the treads on two pieces prior to assembly. Once this was done the parts fit together perfectly.

This adapter saved me a lot of money. It installed easy and is easy to remove. Great 5th wheel adapter fits my F 350 great.

Love this product, a fraction of the cost on amazon.com vs an RV dealer. Two things to note if you buy this. First, when assembling it, read the entire instructions, including the post installation instructions that tells you how to adjust the fit. After assembling it, I was frustrated that it did not exactly fit the puck system, I have a 2018 F350 that this adapter was made for. After looking at the instructions again, it says the positions of the pucks openings can vary. I had to disassemble half of the adapter, loosen the feet, drop it in the puck holes, then tighten and finish assembling. Now it fits like a glove. Second, you will likely have to adjust your hitch to fit into the adapter. Mine initially did not fit, but after loosening the nuts on the hitch, it dropped right in. Tightened up the nuts and now we're ready to hook up and enjoy our 5th wheel this summer. FYI, if you go to an RV dealer, it'll cost over $600. Buy it here ;)

I have an F350 SRW diesel. This adapter worked great. It cost less than buying from a dealer and with prime I didn't pay shipping. There were some tense moments the night before my first camping trip when the holes for mounting the hitch were a little bit of a struggle to line up. May have been the hitch, can't say it's the adapter. Anway it was easy to assemble if you follow the instructions. Looks great and was a great deal. I borrowed my buddy's hitch last year when I first got my 5th wheel. In the pictures, the smaller adapter frame is the Reese adapter I bought from Amazon for my Ford. The other adapter is my buddy's from his RAM 2500. His adapter is much larger where the frame drops into the pucks, but that is because of the frame differences between our vehicles. Although the factory installed puck systems are nice, and leave you with a clean bed without the traditional rails, if you buy a hitch specific to your truck that drops into the pucks directly, you might have to buy a new hitch if you change vehicles. With a frame adapter it allows you to use the hitch in any vehicle. We took his hitch out of his 2016 RAM and mounted it in my 2012 F350. If he had a newer hitch that dropped right into the pucks in his RAM, I wouldn't be able to use it in my Ford if that makes sense.

This thing saved me. I was set on getting an Andersen ultimate ball hitch for my 5th wheel. I have factory pucks in the bed of my 2012 f250, and the previous owner had removed the turnball. So I purchased this to attach to the pucks and then attached the steel andersen ultimate made for rails. It made it sit higher than I would have liked, but very happy with the product. One of the holes didn't quite fit so I had to file it, but otherwise easy to put together and install (and I'm a middle aged single chick, so not exactly mr. Fixit)

Works great with my factory installed 5th wheel mount from Ford. I was able to use my old reese 5th wheel receiver with this kit instead of drilling and mounting the typical rails inside the bed. I am happy with the hitch adapter. The powder coating leaves some to be desired, several places where the powder did not bond to the steel and peels off with normal handling. Overall good product and saved me a lot of $$ from not having to buy new hitch to fit the Ford mounting.

bought this adapter so I could use any Reese 5th wheel hitch. This adapter fit right into the Ford factory 5th wheel prep kit. Saved considerable by using this adapter over buying a hitch that dropped right into the pucks on the truck. The adapter is also very well built. I'm confident it will work well with the 5th wheel camper we are getting.

I just bought a new F250 with the fifth wheel/gooseneck bed system installed. A 18K hitch to fit the rails costs $1400 from Ford and about $1100 on line. This adapter fits perfectly, is also built by Reese (the manufacturer who builds the Ford system) and allows for use of any "conventional" fifth wheel hitch. It does sit about 2" higher than the bed (about 1.5" higher than bed rails) and allows for complete removal from the truck by turning two levers. Easy to install, about $150 cheaper than the local RV dealer and free shipping with Amazon Prime. I'm satisfied and I'm still using the same hitch I had in my last truck. You know, the one I trust and know how to maintain without learning a new system :)
