Fifth wheel hitch mounting system

1. A hitch mount configured to be selectively attached to a vehicle, the vehicle having an under bed hitch mounting system, the hitch mount comprising:

at least one transverse member;

at least one longitudinal member attached with the at least one transverse member, the at least one longitudinal member including first and second apertures, the first and second apertures of different size;

first and second fastening devices configured to selectively engage the under bed hitch mounting system and the first and second apertures, respectively;

first and second biasing members operatively engaged with the first and second fastening devices, the biasing members applying a load against the under bed hitch mounting system;

first and second handles pivotally attached with the first and second fastening devices and operable to rotate a portion of the first and second fastening devices, the handles having a camming surface configured to engage the first and second biasing members.

2. The hitch mount of claim 1 , wherein the first aperture is positioned fore on the vehicle and is generally a round shape, and the second aperture is positioned aft on the vehicle and is generally a round shape.

3. The hitch mount of claim 2 , further comprising a second longitudinal member attached with the at least one transverse member, the second longitudinal member including third and fourth apertures, the third and fourth apertures of different size from each other.

4. The hitch mount of claim 3 , wherein the second and fourth apertures are of generally the same shape and size.

5. The hitch mount of claim 4 , wherein one of the first and third apertures is a laterally extending slot.

6. The hitch mount of claim 1 , wherein the fastening devices each include a bushing and the bushing resides in the first and second apertures.

7. The hitch mount of claim 1 , wherein the fastening devices cooperate with the biasing members to enable independent vertical adjustment of the hitch mount.

8. The hitch mount of claim 1 , wherein the transverse member includes a pair of mounting members, each mounting member comprising a plurality of attachment points integrated on opposing ends of the transverse member.

9. The hitch mount of claim 8 , having at least two transverse members and at least eight attachment points.

10. A hitch mount assembly comprising:

an under bed hitch mounting system configured to be attached with a frame of a vehicle, the under bed hitch mounting system including at least a pair of receiving members;

a hitch mount selectively engageable with the under bed hitch mounting system, the hitch mount comprising:

a transverse member configured to have secured thereto at least a portion of a fifth wheel hitch;

a longitudinal member attached with the transverse member, the longitudinal member include first and second engagement apertures, the first and second engagement apertures having different sizes;

first and second fastening devices, the first fastening device selectively engaged with the first aperture and one of the pair of receiving members forming a fixed attachment point and the second fastening device engaged with the other one of the pair of receiving members and selectively and adjustably engaged with the second aperture.

11. The hitch mount assembly of claim 10 , wherein the second fastening device is adjustably engaged with the second aperture in at least one of a fore and aft and transverse direction to enable lateral adjustment of the hitch mount assembly.

12. The hitch mount assembly of claim 11 , further comprising first and second biasing members respectively cooperating with the first and second fastening devices to enable independent, vertical adjust of the hitch mount assembly.

13. The hitch mount assembly of claim 12 , further comprising a plurality of transverse members, each transverse member having a pair of mounting members integrated on laterally opposing ends of the transverse member.

14. A hitch mount assembly comprising:

an under bed hitch mounting system configured to be attached with a frame of a vehicle, the under bed hitch mounting system including at least a pair of receiving members;

a hitch mount selectively engageable with the under bed hitch mounting system, the hitch mount comprising:

a transverse member configured to have secured thereto at least a portion of a fifth wheel hitch;

a longitudinal member attached with the transverse member;

first and second fastening devices selectively and operatively engaged with the longitudinal member and the receiving members; and

first and second biasing members operatively engaged with the first and second fastening devices, respectively, the first and second biasing members applying loads against the receiving members.

15. The hitch mount of claim 14 , wherein the pair of receiving members are on a different plane, the first and second biasing members applying a load to the longitudinal member to maintain operative engagement between the longitudinal member and the pair of receiving members.

16. The hitch mount of claim 15 , wherein the transverse member includes a pair of mounting members, each mounting member comprising a plurality of attachment points integrated on opposing ends of the transverse member.

17. The hitch mount of claim 14 , wherein the transverse member includes a pair of mounting members, each mounting member comprising a plurality of attachment points integrated on opposing ends of the transverse member.
