I have really been happy with my pullrite and if you do have the short bed you cannot do a 90 deg turn. With the 5er though you can get into very tight spots w/o that ability. As far as I know the mounting brackets should not be any different but you can also contact pullrite as they have great customer service. The hitch is mounted by an under bed to frame mount which has four posts that come up to attach the hitch which these come out as well leaving a flat bed w/o mounting hardware only the four one inch or so holes in bed. I do not have the king pin extender nor need it. Most new 5ers now have redesigned front caps for short bed trucks. There are numerous manufacturers such as Keystone, Heartland, and many others that produce lighter 5ers. Make sure you specifically order the capture plate as most dealers are not aware of that which is not advertised w/ the hitch. I hope this helps.
