Using Demco Hijacker for Ford OEM Pucks on 2017 Ford F-250 Without OEM Puck Kit
Question:
I have a 2017 f250 short bed without the puck system. I found a 18k demco 5th wheel hitch that is made for the puck system. Do they make a bracket for my truck that will accommodate the hitch for puck system or will it only work for puck system?

Expert Reply:
What you'd need is a set of above bed brackets part # DM6003 which you'd install in place of the brackets on the side of your hitch currently and then you'd be able to use the hitch with an above bed set of rails that fits your truck like the # RP50074-58 and you'd be set.
