Is Demco Hijacker Auto Slide or Pullrite Superglide Better for 2018 Ram 1500 w/ 6-1/2 foot bed
Question:
Which is a better auto sliding 5th wheel hitch option for my 2018 Ram 1500 with the 6-1/2 foot bed, the pullrite or hijacker autoslide?
asked by: Ben Y
Expert Reply:
I'd recommend the Demco # DM8550034 Hijacker Autoslide over the Pullrite Superglide because the Hijacker Autoslide is less expensive, it doesn't require a capture plate that costs extra, and because the Hijacker Autoslide offers 3 different height settings- 15-1/4, 16-1/2 or 18 inches high versus a single height setting for the Pullrite.
To install the # DM8550034 Hijacker Autoslide, you'll need the frame bracket/bed rail kit, part # DM8552030-71
