Automatic Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 2008 Toyota Tundra

Question:

I have a 2008 Tundra with 6.5foot bed, 10,000 lb.capacity, its got airbags too. I am buying a 29foot Crusader 5th wheel, 7700 dry, 10150 GVW. I will never load to more than 9,500 lbs. Pin box slants forward to all the way to the front of the trailer. I am new to 5th wheels. My friends recommend an autoslide style hitch. I need more info, top or bottom mount, etc.

For an automatic sliding fifth wheel hitch for your 2008 Toyota Tundra the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550034 would be a fantastic option. The custom install rail kit you need then is the part # DM8552020-71.

The only issue you may have is interference with the air bag kit you have installed. Do you know what brand you have so that I can check to see if it will fit with an in-bed rail kit?
