Auto Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2017 Ford F-250
Question:
We currently have this hitch in our F250 6 3/4 bed...we have to physically release the bars to slide it back or forward........is there an automatic sliding pivot hitch that will install on our existing rails?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider is exactly what you need. It has an automatic sliding head so you do not need to get in and out of the vehicle to make a sharp turn on a short bed truck like your 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty. It will install easily on the above bed rails you have on your truck now. There are also a few different capacities listed such as part # DM8550040 for 13,000 lbs, part # DM8550034 for 18,000 lbs, or part # DM8550035 for 21,000 lbs.
I have attached a review video on the Hijacker for you.
