Auto Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch for 2020 Ford F-150 5-1/2 ft Bed
Question:
I am wondering if a pivot pin box would be a better option saving some weight in the bed with a normal 5th wheel hitch, since I would like to remove it when not in use. I have air bags (Airlift 5000 pound) on the truck. The fifth wheel is a Grand Design 28BH. Lippert 1621

We only have on auto slider fifth wheel hitch that slides far enough to be used in a 5-1/2 foot bed like what you have with your 2020 Ford F-150 and that's the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550040 which is a 13k slider that moves back 22-1/2 inches.
We don't have an underbed rail kit that fits your truck so you'd need the custom install kit part # RP50087-58.
