Rail type Hitch mounting question ???

Folks, I am looking at a slightly used Husky 4 way swivel 16k hitch (part #07054) with the rail system. It appears that it has both rails, 4 brackets and the clevis pins. My question is do the rails just bolt to the bed or do they go down through the frame also. This a used hitch and it does not come with mounting instructions. I just can't hardly believe these rail type mounting systems just bolt to the bed on these flimsy factory beds??
Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks, Jeff

The four brackets bolt to the frame and push up tight to the bottom of the bed. The rails bolt on top of the bed floor through the brackets. You should be able to go to their website and download instructions. Doug
 
Thanks Doug, I did just look at their website and you are right, it looks like those brackets bolt under the bed to the frame. Makes since now.
Thanks, Jeff
