Recommended 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch For A 2022 Ford F-350 Short Bed With OEM Puck System
Question:
I just purchased a 2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty Short Bed with the OEM pucks. I am interested in purchasing a slider 5th wheel hitch. Which one would you recommend for my vehicle?

When installing a 5th wheel trailer hitch onto your 2020 Ford F-350 Super Duty I recommend the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550024. I like the Demco hitch over the others that we offer because it has an automatic slider that provides the clearance required for your short-bed pickup to turn safely at slow speeds. You will no longer have to get in and out of your truck to operate the manual slider. The Demco hitch also has cushioning polyurethane dampeners that will help reduce noise and absorb road shock. The hitch has a 18,000 pound gross towing weight. We also offer the Demco Autoslide # DM8550038 which has a 21,000 pound gross towing weight.
I linked two installation videos below of both the Demco Autoslide and the Bargman Harness being installed onto a 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty. The installation process will be the same for your 2022 Ford F-350. If you have any further questions please feel free to reach back out to me anytime and I will be more than happy to further assist you in your towing endeavors.
