Want to take the family on a cross-country adventure? Or perhaps you're planning a shorter trip to your favorite campground. Whatever your destination, it's important to have the right equipment, especially when towing a fifth wheel trailer. To ensure proper hookup and safety while towing, you'll need something to attach your fifth wheel hitch in the bed on your truck. Many pickups come equipped with factory-installed rails or puck systems, but if you don't have one of these already installed, don't worry. REESE has an extensive line of mounting rails and bracket kits, custom-made to the exact specifications needed based on your truck's year, make, and model. REESE also offers several Industry Standard designs, as well as fastener kits, spacer kits, and a Power Puck mounting kit, so you can be sure you're covered, no matter what pickup you're using to tow. So make it easy. Make it fun. Make it REESE, so you can make the journey as enjoyable as the destination.

Reese has designed towing equipment since 1952 and remains a benchmark for heavy-duty towing. The line covers fifth wheel hitches such as the modular M5, gooseneck couplers including the Goose Box, air-ride and short-bed pin boxes, weight distribution systems with active sway control, and the accessories that connect them, all built to exceed published industry standards.
Reese has been pioneering towing performance since 1952, when Margaret Reese asked her husband TJ to stop travel trailers rocking every time somebody walked through them. His answer, the first pair of stabilising jacks, was simple and effective enough to change the RV industry. From that starting point Reese grew into a designer and manufacturer of complete towing systems, and today it anchors the heavy-duty end of the Horizon Global towing portfolio.
Fifth wheel towing is where the brand's engineering is most visible. The M5 fifth wheel hitch uses a modular design that breaks into manageable sections for assembly, with a wider stance, tighter tolerances and a shock absorption system aimed at the jolts that travel up through a truck bed. For owners who would rather tow from a gooseneck coupler and keep the bed clear, the Goose Box 20K replaces the trailer's king pin with a gooseneck connection carrying its own air-ride cushioning.
Pin boxes are a Reese speciality. The 5th Airborne uses air-ride technology to dampen road shock and reduce the chucking motion that makes fifth wheel towing tiring, while the Sidewinder was designed for short-bed pickups, pivoting the connection point so the trailer can turn sharply without the front cap meeting the cab.
For conventional towing, Reese weight distribution systems restore load to the tow vehicle's front axle and control sway. The Pro Round Bar distributes weight evenly while damping sway, and the Pro Dual Cam II uses active cam-based sway control that works harder the stronger the sway force becomes. Complete kits pair bars, head and shank to a rated tongue weight, and dedicated sway control kits can be added to existing setups. The products suit RV owners, horse and livestock haulers and anyone towing near the upper end of a vehicle's rating.

The 30035 is a 10-bolt rail fifth wheel hitch mounting kit manufactured by Reese Products (Horizon Global America Inc.). It consists of two base rails, mounting brackets, carriage bolts, nuts, washers, spacers, and pull wires. The kit is designed to be bolted to the truck frame and bed to provide a foundation for mounting a fifth wheel hitch. Not all hardware is used on every installation; the specific components needed depend on your vehicle model.
The 30035 fits a wide range of pickup trucks including Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Dodge/RAM, Toyota, and Nissan models. Specific applications include Chevy/GM Silverado and Sierra (various years), Ford F-150/F-250/F-350/F-450, Dodge/RAM 1500/2500/3500, Toyota Tundra, Nissan Titan, and Dodge Dakota. However, some vehicles require additional adapter bracket kits. Visit www.ReeseProducts.com before installation to verify your specific vehicle is supported and that you have the most recent revision of the instructions.
Some vehicles require adapter bracket kits in addition to the 30035 base kit. These include: 2004+ Nissan Titan (kit 58405N), 2004-2014 Ford F-150 (kit 58426N), 2015+ Ford F-150 (kit 58545N), 2003-2012 Dodge RAM 2500/3500 with overload brackets (kit 58186N), 2009 and 2012 Dodge RAM 1500 (kit 58386N), 2013+ RAM 3500 (kit 58520N), 2014+ RAM 2500 (kit 58522N), 2007+ Toyota Tundra (kit 58309N), 2013-2017 Dodge RAM 1500 except with air suspension or ECO Diesel (kit 58386N), and 2014-2017 Dodge RAM 1500 except with air suspension (kit 58523N). Check page 18-19 of the manual or www.ReeseProducts.com for your specific vehicle.
No. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way before installation. However, the base rails may be installed on spray-in liners. If using a spray-in liner, consult the installer for the recommended curing time before proceeding with installation.
Do not install the 30035 on a truck with less than a 6' bed without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox installed on the trailer. Short bed trucks (with a minimum of 38" from the back of the cab to the axle centerline) require a minimum of a 13" extended pin box or a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox for regular maneuvers. Long bed trucks require the hitch center to be at least 52" from the back of the cab to prevent the trailer from hitting the cab when turned 90°. Actual distance required depends on trailer width and king pin location.
No, not without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. The manual explicitly states: "Do not install on a truck with a 5'8" long bed unless the trailer is equipped with a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox."
No. The manual states that the Crewmax 5.5' bed requires a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. The 30035 alone is not sufficient for this configuration.
No. A 5.5' bed on a Nissan Titan requires a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. Beds of 6.5' and 7' may require either the Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox or KWIK-SLIDE. The 30035 requires adapter kit 58405N for Nissan Titan applications.
No. Dodge RAM 1500 models with air suspension are excluded from the 30035 installation. The manual lists specific RAM 1500 models that are compatible, but excludes those with air suspension or ECO Diesel engine (for 2013 and 2017 models). Check page 18-19 for the specific adapter kits and exclusions for your model year.
Yes, the 30035 can be installed on Dodge Dakota models from 1994 to 2004. However, you must cut 1" from the top flange of the brackets and mount them under the bed with flanges facing out. The rear brackets must be positioned on Row 3 for 1997 and newer models, or on Row 4 for 1996 and earlier models.
The measurement varies by vehicle model and bed length. Examples include: Chevy/GM 2011+ 2500HD/3500HD with 8' box: 29¾"; 6' box: 25¼". Chevy/GM '99 Silverado/Sierra with 8' box: 30"; 5'8" and 6'6" box: 25-1/8". Chevy 73-87 with 34" straight frame: 34-7/8". Ford '97-'03 F-150/F-250: 29-1/4". Ford F-150/F-250 through '96 and '97+ SuperDuty: 32-1/2". Dodge RAM '02-08 1500 with long box: 28-5/16"; short box: 26-5/16". Dodge '94-'01 1500 with long box: 32-7/16"; short box: 28-7/16". Toyota Tundra 2000-2006: 32-1/2". Toyota Tundra 2007+ with 5.5', 6.5', 8' bed: 29¾". Refer to the vehicle-specific installation page for your exact model.
Required tools are: 1/8" drill, 17/32" drill, 3/4" socket and open-end wrench, 100 lb-ft torque wrench, and C clamps. Some Dodge applications also require a 1" drill. Before drilling, check for obstructions to avoid damaging fuel lines, brake lines, or structural members.
The kit includes: 2 long brackets, 2 short brackets, 10 filler spacers, 2 spacers, 10 carriage bolts, 8 knurled bolts, 18 1/2" nuts, 18 1/2" lockwashers, 6 1/2" serrated washers, 4 1/2" flat washers, 2 4½" carriage bolts, 2 tube spacers, 2 base rails, and 4 pull wires. Note: Not all hardware is used on all installations. The specific components needed depend on your vehicle model.
You must use only the bolts, nuts, and washers supplied by Horizon Global America Inc. in the kit. All bolts are Grade 5 and nuts are Grade 5 unless specified otherwise. Using non-supplied fasteners may compromise the integrity of the installation.
1. Raise the rear of the truck high enough to allow jack stands to be placed under the rear spring hanger bracket. This provides maximum room for installation. 2. Ensure the truck is properly blocked and restrained to prevent it from falling. 3. If your truck has a plastic bed liner, cut it out of the way (spray-in liners are acceptable with proper curing time). 4. Remove any plastic bed liners before proceeding. 5. Gather all required tools: 1/8" drill, 17/32" drill, 3/4" socket and open-end wrench, 100 lb-ft torque wrench, and C clamps.
If the truck is raised, it must be 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. Use jack stands under the rear spring hanger bracket to provide support.
1. Center the hitch between the fender wells. 2. Make sure the rails are square. 3. Adjust the position of the rails until both diagonal measurements are the same (measure diagonally from the same reference point on both sides). 4. This positioning should allow installation of a gooseneck or other fifth wheels to these rails. 5. Verify that the center bolt does not interfere with the bed sill. 6. Measure from the rear edge of the truck bed to the rear edge of the base rail closest to the rear edge of the truck to ensure it matches the specification for your vehicle model.
Drill all 10 holes with a 1/8" drill first as pilot holes. Then enlarge the pilot holes with a 17/32" drill. On Dodge RAM applications, you will also drill a 1" hole through the truck bed only (not through the frame) to accommodate the tube spacer for the 4½" carriage bolt in Row 3. On some Dodge applications, a 1" drill is required. It is critical to use the 17/32" drill for frame holes, as rib neck bolts may break if the hole is too small, and the neck may not grip if the hole is too large.
The 10 holes are identified in Fig. 2 of the manual. Hole locations vary for individual vehicle applications. You must select 10 holes from the four rows (ROW 1, ROW 2, ROW 3, ROW 4) shown in your vehicle-specific installation diagram. The center bolt must be installed in one of the center holes in each rail. Before drilling, check for obstructions to avoid damaging fuel lines, brake lines, or structural members. Do not drill in the ~4" zone between parallel bed sill spot welds where the bed sill sits (applies to most vehicles). Refer to your specific vehicle installation page for the exact hole pattern.
Yes, depending on your vehicle: 1. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way (spray-in liners are acceptable). 2. On Dodge Dakota models, you must cut 1" from the top flange of the brackets. 3. On Chevy 73-87 models with outside shock absorbers, you must cut the provided tube spacer down to fit snug between the frame and bed. 4. On Dodge RAM 2003-2012 2500 HD models, the tube spacer is used as-is (not cut) and dropped through a 1" hole in the truck bed to avoid crushing the bed sill.
Yes, welding is an optional alternative to bolting in some applications. The manual shows optional weld patterns on the vehicle-specific installation diagrams. However, on Dodge RAM models with tubular frames, extra caution must be used when mounting with optional welding, as tubular frames have thinner walls than previous C-channel frames. If interference with suspension springs results from bolting, you can cut the bolt flush to the nut outboard of the frame or use the weld option. Consult the installer for recommendations on whether welding is appropriate for your specific vehicle.
All nuts must be torqued to 85 lb-ft. However, on Chevy 73-87 models with outside shock absorbers, do not torque to 85 lb-ft; instead, tighten but do not crush the bed sill. For rib neck bolts, tighten the nuts until the bolt heads seat before final torquing.
The kit includes 10 standard carriage bolts (size not specified in the parts list), 2 4½" carriage bolts, and 8 1/2"-13x1-3/8" ribbed neck bolts. On Toyota Tundra 2007+ installations with service kit 58309, 3" carriage bolts and 1-3/4" carriage bolts are used. On Dodge RAM applications, a 4½" carriage bolt is used in Row 3 through the bed sill.
The kit includes eight 1/2"-13x1-3/8" ribbed neck bolts with threads pointing out. These bolts are installed through the frame with lock washers and hex nuts. Tighten the nuts until the bolt heads seat. Lubrication of the knurls of all rib neck bolts is recommended. However, do NOT lubricate the threads, as this may cause bolt failure. After seating, torque all nuts to 85 lb-ft.
For the four bolts through the mounting brackets (bed bolts), use serrated washers, lock washers, and hex nuts. For the other four bolts through the bed, use flat washers, lock washers, and nuts. On Toyota Tundra 2007+ installations, bevel washers and conical toothed washers are used with the 3" carriage bolts in Row 4.
1. Install the long brackets on the forward bolts and short brackets on the rearward bolts (long and short brackets can be interchanged as needed depending on your vehicle). 2. Secure the bolts through the mounting brackets with serrated washers, lock washers, and hex nuts. 3. Secure the other four bolts through the bed with flat washers, lock washers, and nuts. 4. Tighten all nuts until the bolt heads seat, then torque all nuts to 85 lb-ft. Note: On some vehicles, the long and short brackets may need to be switched to avoid interference with exhaust hangers, fuel lines, or brake cable hangers. Refer to your vehicle-specific installation page.
1. Drill two holes in the frame for each bracket, selecting the holes that give the greatest spread between bolts. 2. Install eight 1/2"-13x1-3/8" ribbed neck bolts with threads pointing out. 3. Add lock washers and hex nuts. 4. Tighten the nuts until the bolt heads seat. 5. Lubricate the knurls of all rib neck bolts (do not lubricate threads). 6. Torque all nuts to 85 lb-ft. 7. Use the pull wire provided to pull rib neck bolts through the frame as needed per your application. On Dodge RAM 2013 2500 HD, wire extensions must be added to the pull wires for the forward rib bolts.
The pull wire is used to pull rib neck bolts through access holes in the frame as needed per your application. This is particularly important on Dodge RAM applications where rib neck bolts must be pulled through access holes in the bottom of the frame. On Dodge RAM 2013 2500 HD, wire extensions must be added to the pull wires for the forward rib bolts to reach the access holes.
On Chevy 73-87 models with outside shock absorbers, install a spacer with a 1/2" hole between the frame and bed. Cut the provided tube spacer down to fit snug between the frame and bed. This spacer prevents the bed from being crushed when tightening the bolts. Do not torque to 85 lb-ft on these models; instead, tighten but do not crush the bed sill.
On Dodge RAM '02-08 1500 and '03-12 2500 without overload, and 2013 RAM 2500 HD: 1. Drill through the bed sill with a 17/32" drill. 2. Open up the hole through the truck bed only with a 1" diameter drill (do not drill through the frame). 3. Drop the tube spacer through the 1" hole in the truck bed. 4. Position the spacer to avoid crushing the bed sill when torquing the 4½" carriage bolt. 5. Insert the 4½" carriage bolt through the bed sill and spacer. 6. Secure with lock washers and nuts.
The 2007 and newer Toyota Tundra installation requires service kit 58309 in addition to the 30035 base kit. Key steps: 1. Drill an 1/8" pilot hole for the rear rail in the center of the bed sill for Row 3. 2. Drill a 9/16" hole through the bed and the top of the frame on both sides for Row 3 and Row 4 passenger side. 3. For Row 3 attachment, place a tube spacer inside the bed sill on top of the frame and under the bottom of the bed, then insert a 3" carriage bolt. 4. For Row 4 passenger side, stack two 1/2" spacers and a bevel washer to fill the gap between bed and frame, then secure with another bevel washer, conical toothed washer, and hex nut. 5. Install long brackets on the front rail and short bracket on the rear rail driver side using 1-3/4" carriage bolts from the 58309 kit. 6. Use 2" carriage bolts from the 30035 kit for all other bed attachments. 7. Measure 29¾" from the rear edge of the truck bed to the rear edge of the base rail. 8. Use the rear center hole only in the rear base rail.
1. Find the parallel rows of bed sill spot welds in your truck bed. 2. Do not drill in the ~4" zone between the parallel rows of spot welds where the bed sill sits. 3. Ensure the center bolt does not interfere with the bed sill. 4. On some vehicles, you may need to move the base rail location +/- 1/2" to ensure frame brackets do not interfere with bed sills. 5. On Dodge RAM applications, position brackets in Row 2 against the rear side of the bed sill to avoid interference when drilling in Row 3. 6. On Dodge '94-'01 1500 and '94-'02 2500/3500, position brackets in Row 2 against the forward side of the bed sill. 7. Double-check all areas prior to drilling to prevent interference.
On vehicles with heavy duty suspensions, check for interference with bolts where brackets are mounted to the frame. If interference with suspension springs results, you have two options: 1. Cut the bolt flush to the nut outboard of the frame, or 2. Use the optional weld option instead of bolting. On Dodge RAM models with overload springs, you may need to switch the position of the long and short brackets to avoid interference.
On Ford '97-'03 F-150 and F-250, long and short brackets on the driver's side may need to be switched to avoid interference with the exhaust hanger. You may also need to move the base rail location +/- 1/2" to ensure frame brackets do not interfere with bed sills and fuel lines. On Ford F-150/F-250 through '96 and '97+ SuperDuty, some later models require exchanging forward long brackets from front to rear and/or repositioning forward brackets to Row 2 to avoid brake cable hangers and overload springs. On Dodge RAM '02-08 1500, the short bracket on the driver's side should be positioned outside the frame. On Dodge RAM 2003-2012 2500 without overload, an optional custom bracket (58023) can be purchased to avoid drilling inside the frame and to avoid the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. Always check for obstructions before drilling.
On Dodge RAM applications, do not drill through both walls of the frame. Drill only through the wall of the frame to which the bracket is mounted. This is important because Dodge trucks have tubular frames with thinner walls than previous C-channel frames. If you need to avoid drilling inside the frame on the passenger side of Dodge RAM 2003-2012 2500 without overload, you can purchase optional custom bracket 58023 from your dealer, which allows for drilling outside the frame and avoids the exhaust hanger.
Dodge RAM 2003-2012 2500 with overload brackets cannot use the standard 30035 kit. You must use the required bracket kit 58186 instead. Refer to the 58186N installation instructions for details. This applies to regular, quad, and crew cab configurations.
On Dodge RAM 2013 2500 HD without overload brackets: 1. Use the tube spacer and 4½" carriage bolt to attach through the rearward bed sill (Row 3). 2. Rib neck bolts must be pulled through access holes in the frame with the supplied pull wire. 3. Wire extensions must be added to the pull wires for the forward rib bolts. 4. Do not drill through both walls of the frame; drill only through the wall to which the bracket is mounted. 5. Position brackets in Row 2 close to the rear side of the bed sill to avoid interference when drilling in Row 3. 6. Extra caution is needed when mounting with optional welding due to tubular frame construction.
After installation, verify the following: 1. All 10 holes are drilled and bolts are installed. 2. All nuts are torqued to 85 lb-ft (except on Chevy 73-87 models where you should tighten but not crush the bed sill). 3. The center bolt does not interfere with the bed sill. 4. The hitch is centered between the fender wells. 5. Both diagonal measurements from the same reference point are the same (rails are square). 6. On long bed trucks, the hitch center is at least 52" from the back of the cab. 7. All bolts are secure and no fasteners are loose. 8. The base rails are properly aligned and level. 9. There is adequate clearance at the cab and bumper for trailer turns. The manual recommends that the dealer/installer physically demonstrate procedures to the end user and have the end user demonstrate understanding.
Critical safety warnings: 1. If the truck is raised, it must be properly blocked and restrained to prevent falling, which could cause death or serious injury. 2. Do not lubricate the threads of rib neck bolts; lubricate only the knurls. Lubricating threads may cause bolt failure. 3. Check for obstructions before drilling to avoid damaging fuel lines, brake lines, or structural members. It is the installer's responsibility to prevent such damage. 4. Do not install on trucks with less than a 6' bed without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. 5. Do not install on trucks with a 5'8" bed (Chevy/GM '04+ 1500 crew cab) without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. 6. On Chevy 73-87 models, do not torque to 85 lb-ft; tighten but do not crush the bed sill. 7. On Dodge RAM models with tubular frames, use extra caution when mounting with optional welding.
Before drilling any holes, check for obstructions to avoid damaging fuel lines, brake lines, or structural members. Horizon Global America Inc. does its best to communicate tow vehicle manufacturer changes; however, it is ultimately the responsibility of the installer to prevent damage due to installation. Take extra care to identify the location of all fuel lines, brake lines, and other critical components under the truck bed before drilling.
It is critical to use the 17/32" drill for holes in the chassis frame. If the hole is too small, rib neck bolts may break. If the hole is too large, the neck may not grip properly. Always drill pilot holes with a 1/8" drill first, then enlarge with the 17/32" drill. This two-step process ensures proper fit and prevents bolt failure.
The manual does not specify a maintenance schedule or retorque intervals after installation. However, it is recommended to periodically inspect all bolts and fasteners to ensure they remain tight and secure. The manual provides a 10-year limited warranty on the kit against defects in material and workmanship under normal use and service.
The 30035 fits Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Dodge/RAM, Toyota, and Nissan pickup trucks. However, some vehicles require additional adapter bracket kits. Visit www.ReeseProducts.com to verify your specific vehicle is supported and confirm you have the most recent manual revision.
Do not install on trucks with less than a 6' bed without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox. Short bed trucks require a minimum 13" extended pin box or SIDEWINDER Pinbox. Long bed trucks require the hitch center at least 52" from the back of the cab.
Yes. You must drill 10 holes: first with a 1/8" drill as pilot holes, then enlarge with a 17/32" drill. On Dodge applications, you also drill a 1" hole through the truck bed only. Check for obstructions before drilling to avoid damaging fuel lines or brake lines.
Torque all nuts to 85 lb-ft. Exception: On Chevy 73-87 models, tighten but do not crush the bed sill (do not torque to 85 lb-ft).
If the truck is raised, it must be properly blocked and restrained to prevent falling, which could cause death or serious injury. Do not lubricate rib neck bolt threads (lubricate knurls only). Check for obstructions before drilling. Do not install on trucks with less than a 6' bed without a Reese SIDEWINDER Pinbox.
Center the hitch between the fender wells. Make sure rails are square by adjusting until both diagonal measurements are the same. Verify the center bolt does not interfere with the bed sill. Measure from the rear edge of the truck bed to the rear edge of the base rail to match your vehicle's specification.
If holes do not align with the brackets and rails without interference with structures below the truck bed, restart the installation at step 7. This means repositioning the rails and re-measuring the diagonal measurements to ensure they are the same. Center the hitch between the fender wells and adjust the position of the rails until both diagonal measurements match. Then re-drill the pilot holes and proceed with enlarging them.
Use the pull wire provided in the kit to pull the rib neck bolts through the frame access holes as needed per your application. On Dodge RAM 2013 2500 HD, wire extensions must be added to the pull wires for the forward rib bolts to reach the access holes in the bottom of the frame. Ensure the pull wire is properly threaded through the bolt hole before attempting to pull the bolt through.
Install a spacer between the frame and bed to prevent crushing. On Chevy 73-87 models, install a spacer with a 1/2" hole between the frame and bed, cutting the provided tube spacer to fit snug. On Dodge RAM applications, drop the tube spacer through a 1" hole in the truck bed (not through the frame) before inserting the 4½" carriage bolt. Do not torque to 85 lb-ft on Chevy 73-87 models; instead, tighten but do not crush the bed sill.
If interference with suspension springs results from the bracket mounting, you have two options: 1. Cut the bolt flush to the nut outboard of the frame, or 2. Use the optional weld option instead of bolting. On Dodge RAM models with overload springs, you may need to switch the position of the long and short brackets to avoid interference. Check for interference before final torquing.
On Ford '97-'03 F-150 and F-250, switch the long and short brackets on the driver's side to avoid interference with the exhaust hanger. You may also need to move the base rail location +/- 1/2" to ensure frame brackets do not interfere with bed sills and fuel lines. On Dodge RAM 2003-2012 2500 without overload, you can purchase optional custom bracket 58023 to avoid drilling inside the frame and to avoid the exhaust hanger on the passenger side. Always check for obstructions before drilling.
The center bolt must be installed in one of the center holes in each rail, but it must not interfere with the bed sill. If interference occurs, reposition the rails and re-measure the diagonal measurements to ensure they are the same. You may need to move the base rail location +/- 1/2" to avoid interference. Verify the center bolt position before final torquing.
