Recommended Adapter to Install PullRite SuperGlide in Factory Pucks on 2018 GMC Sierra 2500
Question:
I have a 16k Pullrite Superglide and am buying a 2018 GMC 2500 with the puck system. What mounting platform should I get to mount my 5th wheel to the bed?

If your 16K PullRite SuperGlide is an ISR model that is desgined to mount to industry standard bed rails, like their 2700 ISR series then the Demco # DM6194 adapter would work great for you.
The # DM6333 you'd looked at is for the 2020+ GM puck system, whose spacing changed for the 2020 model year.
If your PullRite hitch doesn't use industry standard rails, then you'd either want to check with PullRite to see if they offer an adapter that's compatible with the 1st gen GM puck system or replace your existing hitch with one that's compatible with the Demco adapter for the 1st generation GM pucks like the Demco Hijacker Autoslide, part # DM8550034 which works great with the # DM6194 adapter.
If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed so you don't have to run the connector cord up and over the tailgate, you can install one using part # C56000.
