Video Transcript for Review of Demco Hijacker Autoslide Fifth Wheel MOR/ryde Locking Plate - DM6025
Hi there. I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at this Demco Hijacker Autoslide Locking Plate for your MORryde Pin Boxes. Now, the way your Demco Hijacker Autoslide functions, you're going to have to prevent the king pin from rotating in the hitch in order for it to have the correct pressure in order to slide. So, we are going to need to isolate that movement at the king pin, and that's what this plate is gonna do. This is going to bolt on to your MORryde pin box, and you can see we do have this wedge here.
This is going to fill up your jaw channel, and so it's going to make sure that your pin box isn't going to be rotating at all, and then it will allow your Hijacker Autoslide to swing out as it needs to to make those tight turns for you. So, this is gonna be very easy to get mounted on to your pin boxes. They do include the hardware that you're gonna need as well as instructions with very detailed pictures to help you get it installed. So very, very easy to get installed, and it is gonna be really necessary for your Hijacker to function properly. This is a nice, durable carbide, corrosion-resistant powder-coat finish, so it is gonna hold up really well for you.
Nice solid construction. So, it is gonna do a really good job of ensuring that your Hijacker is functioning properly with your MORryde pin boxes. It is made here in the USA, so you can trust it is gonna be a good quality for you. Like I said, very easy to get bolted in place, and it's going to make sure that your autoslide is functioning. So, that completes our look for today.
Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Average Customer Rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars (49 Customer Reviews)
Bolt this locking plate onto your MOR/ryde pin box to prevent the king pin from rotating inside your Demco Autoslide fifth-wheel trailer hitch. Hardware included.by: Jeff S02/27/2020
You need this for a MORyde pin box and an automatic sliding 5th wheel hitch. It was a perfect fit that I had the dealer install when I picked up the new 5th wheel trailer. They claimed it took 2 men and an hour, I don’t really know.
You cannot clamp the factory sliding hitch bars against the MORyde because the motion that it creates, so the “V” on the bottom slides into the V on your 5th wheel plate, thus locking it in as one piece and still lets the MORyde to its thing. Voodoo magic!
It’s not needed unless you have an automatic sliding 5th wheel.

Could not find this locking plate on etrailer website so I called them. Customer service knew the exact plate I was looking for. Arrived 2 days later. Great service from this company.
by: George02/12/2022
Got the locking plate earlier than expected. Easy to install with good instructions with pictures. Wouldn’t be leaving Florida for a few months so will let you know how it tows back to Ohio then.
by: Jeremy07/09/2021
I havent used it yet. There is a slight bow in it when installed. I called the tech team and I give them five stars. Really great and knowledgeable. They gave me
Some tips and reaffirmed it is installed correctly. Biggest feedback for improvement is the quality of the printed instructions were a bit poor. It was hard to see exactly how the side bumpers were installed. I figured it out though.
by: Greg Campbell03/04/2022
Very easy to order, competitive price, and an easy to follow video. The b**** is installed. Now I just need the trailer!

This hitch has saved our bacon more than once. When we first looked into it many of my friends with fifth wheels told me I wouldnt need a sliding hitch. They swore they never needed to turn their trucks that tight. One friend told me his had come in handy many times. Four hours into my first time out I ended up in a tight parking area. without the hitch I would have been looking at backing my rig a considerable distance. Because I had it, I was able to jackknife and turn around. While we still have to pay attention to where we are going, this hitch has opened up options on how and where I can park my fifth wheel. As far as function- the hitch has worked flawlessly. We had an issue getting the dealership to install the capture plate, so we went to an rv tech, who put it on for us. Once the plate was installed the hitch worked like a charm. There is one downside- it is heavy, so I dont take it out of the truck. This is an excellent durable product that does exactly what it is designed to do, and does it well.

Demco 5th wheel hitch, under bed framework, and adapter plate we're all provided by etrailer. Shipping was prompt and all items in great shape. Install directions we're detailed and fairly easy to follow.
The quality of Demco products is without peer.
by: Kelly11/28/2018
I had to use a forklift to install it onto my pin box because it wasn’t manufacturer right. All the bends were off by less than a inch. That’s why I was able to make it work, but needed a forklift to install so I can apply pressure to front so rear of the capture plate can be bolted down and applied pressure to rear so that front could be bolted down. The hitch performed awesomely I towed my new fifth over 2,200 miles. I would recommend this hitch, but demco needs to revisit with morryde for the correct specifications on the capture plate.
by: Tim M06/05/2020
the Demco slider hitch I bought has performed as expected with no problems so far. I feel confident when taking sharp turns that my 5th wheel will keep its distance from the cab of my truck. The product is heavy duty and looks great too.
by: Jeff G05/04/2020
I have had the capture plate on my new camper to use with the Demco Hijacker Autoslider hitch for a year now. It works perfect together.
by: Mark 08/17/2022
Locking plate works great. Fits tight need muscle to put in place. Does what it’s intended for.
by: John 08/29/2023
Fast delivery and good quantity!
by: Jeff H03/27/2020
Hitching up has never been easier. Head stays perfectly straight when coupling. No need for adjustable guides. Very easy installation.
Just remember to remove it if someone tows with a conventional hitch. That would be a disaster.
Great addition.
by: Justin06/07/2016
Used this product in conjunction with my mor ryde pin box/ demco auto slider and after hooking up and unhooking a few times plus two trips it has worked well. The only thing to keep in mind is due to the way the grooves behind the pin sit it doesn't work so well with a king pin stabilizer.
by: Daniel 07/09/2023
Order arrived in two days. Easily insta lled.
by: Myron F.06/04/2017
Very good and needed part for my Mor/Ryde pin box. Would not have known this was a required, not recommended, add on for my pinbox had it not been for etrailer and there expert adviser, Jared P. He was of great help. Jared did a great job helping me. Thank you. RV dealers need to be a little bit more knowledgeable on what customers need for their RV.
by: Wayne P08/03/2019
This is a great hitch. Positive latching, easy hooking up and unhooking. Quiet operation and no worries about the operation of the hitch. It just works!
by: Earl07/12/2019

Really nice knowing that you don’t have to worry if the auto slide is going to work or not this took the guessing away

The design of the skid plate on the pin box does not work with the hitch head capture plates which is why you need the above to prevent from rotating.

You would not be able to use it with aa B and W fixed hitch as it would basically try to twist the head off of the hitch since normally the pin box pivots on the head of the hitch and this is designed to stop that and force it to rotate at the head.

view full answer... - Auto Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation that Works with Demco Hijacker Fifth WheelWe have an option that will work well for you. You can use a Demco Hijacker like part # DM8550034 with a Mor Ryde pin box but you have to use the locking plate part # DM6025.

When comparing the Hijacker Autoslide to the PullRite SuperGlide you actually get much more at a lower price-point. The things that the 18K Demco Hijacker # DM8550034 and the 18K SuperGlide have in common are that they both offer 14" of travel, they are both automatic sliding 5th wheel hitches, have 2-point pivoting hitch heads, are compatible with industry standard...
view full answer... - Can Demco Hijacker Autoslide Hitch be Used with MORryde Pin BoxYes you can use a Demco Hijacker Autoslide hitch like the one for Ford OEM rail kits part # DM8550041 with a MoRryde pin box but you will also need the Locking Plate part # DM6025 as well.

The Demco Hijacker Autoslide Locking Plate for MOR/ryde Pin Boxes # DM6025 is required with the use of an Autoslide such as # DM8550034 because the capture plate that come with the hitch will not adequately adjust to the MOR/Ryde and will not force it to turn with the RV. Without this locking plate the king pin will pivot inside your Demco Autoslide.

The Autoslide hitches use the weighted pressure and the angle of the pin box to determine movement, so this plate is required with the MOR/ryde pin boxes to ensure that proper function. You can see by the integrated hitch wedge that the locking plate will securely hold that style pin box in place. The Demco Hijacker Autoslide is a great hitch...
view full answer... - Can You Uncouple at an Angle With Demco Hijacker Locking Plate?When using a Demco Hijacker # DM8550022, either with the Locking Plate for MOR/ryde Pin Boxes # DM6025 or not, you will need to uncouple straight out. It is not recommended to either couple or uncouple at an angle with this hitch due to the autoslide feature; you will need to be at no more than a 15 degree angle.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch To Pin Box Compatibility IssuesOk, so the wedge is typically not welded on unless it's like the Demco to MORryde Locking Plate # DM6025. Typically they'll be bolted to a rod with a reel that will allow you to slide it back and forth to get it in the right position for the hitch. A wedge kit or capture plates should only be used if you have a rotating pin box or a sliding hitch with a head that rotates as it slides back like the Demco Autsolide # DM8550034 does.

view full answer... - Locking Plate Recommendation for a Mor/Ryde Pin Box When Used with Demco HijackerYou will need to use the locking plate part # DM6025 to lock the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550034 since you have a Morryde pin box, but the Mor/ryde pin box will still function just fine.
view full answer... - Why Does Demco Hijacker Need Capture Plate for Use with MORryde Pin BoxThe Demco Hijackers like the # DM8550024 do have locking plates on the sides of them to prevent having to use a capture plate for most fifth wheel pin boxes but the MORryde pin boxes have a cut out area on the sides of the pin box to allow for the movement/cushioning so the locking plates wouldn't work. And even if they could it would prevent the cushioning from working. This is why you have to use a capture plate like the part # DM6025.

You are definitely correct that you need the Demco Hijacker Autoslide Locking Plate for MOR/ryde Pin Boxes # DM6025 to use the MOR/Ryde pin box with your Demco Hijacker # DM8550024. The pictures that you sent in looks like your dealer just welded on some brackets of their own to lockout the Hijacker.
