What Ford trucks have the puck system?

Ford Trucks with Puck System
The Ford trucks equipped with the puck system include the 2017+ Super Duty models, such as the F-250, F-350, and F-450. The puck system is a 5-hole towing system that is installed onto the frame of the truck by the manufacturer. It is designed to accommodate various towing accessories, such as 5th wheel hitches and gooseneck hitches. The puck system is typically found in the 6-3/4 foot bed of the truck and can be identified by looking for the puck covers in the bed. The puck system is also available as part of the 5th wheel prep package, which can be added to the truck at the time of purchase for an additional cost.
The puck system is compatible with various aftermarket towing accessories, and there are options available for 5th wheel legs, rollers, and hitches that seamlessly integrate with the OEM puck system in Ford trucks. It’s important to note that the puck system is not the same between different truck manufacturers, such as Ram and GM, so it’s essential to ensure compatibility with the specific truck model.
