Auto Sliding Fifth Wheel Hitch for 2017 Chevy Silverado 2500 Short Bed without OEM Rail Kit
Question:
Hi Im thinking about purchasing a 5th wheel camper and hitch. I want the pull rite super lite 20k, I have a 2017 2500hd with a 6 1/2 foot bed and no prep done so was wondering what brackets and rails I would need for this setup. Thank you

We don't carry the Pullrite brand of hitches but we do offer an auto sliding hitch setup that will work just as good if not better than the Pullrites which aren't height adjustable. The Demco Hijacker AutoSlide part # DM8550037 is a really great auto sliding hitch that is a little easier to install and use than the Pullrite too since it doesn't require a capture plate. It also has a 21k trailer towing capacity.
This installs in an underbed rail kit for your truck with part # DM8551010 which gives you an empty bed when you aren't towing.
