Video Transcript for Review of Demco Fifth Wheel - Replacement Head - DM6169
Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at this replacement head for the Demco Recon 5th Wheel trailer hitch. Has a 21,000 pound gross towing weight capacity. Now, this part here will replace the head assembly on your Demco Recon 5th Wheel trailer hitch. It does work on part numbers DM8550043, part number DM8550045, and part number DM8550046.
Those three hitches we do sell separately on our website. Now, this head here will have a nice wraparound, single-piece jaw. Provides a nice, secure connection. Does give you a 360 degree jaw-to-king-pin contact, and because of that, it'll give you less rattle, more security than the slide bar jaws. Also, if you noticed on this, it has this large 3/4 inch thick solid steel locking bar.
Right in the front here, that'll reinforce that connection of your coupled trailer. And when it does close, this will automatically lock into place when the jaw closes. Now, this is a double pivot hitch head, which will ease hookup, help limit chucking. Basically, when this is installed into the yoke head on the hitch, it'll pivot front to back and side to side. Does have a nice spring loaded handle over here with a nice comfort grip.
Allows for simple coupling, and has a nice tethered safety pin here that lets you secure the handle in the open or the closed position. Right now, it is closed just to show you how you open it. You just take out the pin, and again, it's tethered so you can just let it hang there. And then what you'll do is pull this handle all the way out. And once you get it far enough you can hear it locked into place.
And now you can see the jaws open, ready to accept your connection. So once you slide the king pin in there it'll wrap around there, lock into place, and then just put your pin back through the hole to secure it. This is a sturdy steel construction. Has a nice rust resistant black powder coat finish on it. It is made in the USA. Few specs on this. The gross towing weight capacity is 21,000 pounds, vertical load limits 5,250 pounds. But again, if you have it in the open position you can even flip the pin and clip through there to lock it into the open position if you prefer. But that should do it for the review on the replacement head for the Demco Recon 5th Wheel trailer hitch..

Parts arrived for the DM 8550043, received only the hitch base plate and adjustable shaft for the hitch head. Have been told that the hitch head is shipped separately. Now have a problem with the hitch plate fitting the bed rails. The holes for the pin that secures the hitch plate to the rails are to close to the bottom of the hitch plate photos are given of the problem a pencil was used for reference. There is NO WAY the pin will go through the rail and hitch plate. Waiting on a solution from etrailer. The hole that you can barely see the pencil is tailgate rails pin fits fine.

The truck that got the install is a 2002 Ford F350 Super Duty 7.3 L Diesel dually. The Demco Recon 5th wheel hitch (DM8550043) looks like a well made, heavy duty hitch. All the welds are precise and well done. I like the single wrap around jaw with the real thick bar that backs that up. The handle that pulls out to unlock the jaw moves with ease and locks in the out position when the jaw opens. When the king pin comes in contact with the back of jaw, the jaw wraps around the king pin, the handle closes, you put in the safety pin and your ready to go RVing. I chose the Husky Custom Rails and installation kit (HT31405-686) for my install. The reason I chose these rails over the ones that etrailer had matched up for the hitch is, I had previously installed a set of Airlift Airbags and I didn't want the rail install to interfere with the airbags. It was a good choice, there was no interference at all. If I had not had the bags, I would have chose the rails and install kit that require no drilling. Drilling the holes went very fast and easy, it was torking the rear bolts down that was very difficult. There was not enough room to get a wrench of any kind around the nut. I wound up using a set of vise grips on the nut while a friend of mine torked the bolt slowly from above.
All and all I'm happy with the product and I'll give another review in a year.
by: Kim 04/20/2024
Excellent product and customer service was outstanding. I just bought the product so I haven’t towed with it yet but after many many years of towing with other fifth wheel hitches, I can tell this is going to be an huge improvement!
by: Anth04/07/2024
very good product although when unhitching rv it wants to trip the latch. I had to address that problem by drilling a hole in the trip bar for the pin to hold it open.
by: Ronald 07/17/2023
The only issue I am having with the fifth wheel hitch is latch handle will not stay open (out) when hooking up or disconnecting from king Pin sometimes (and yes, I know how to work a fifth wheel hitch). If it wasn't for that I would give it 5 stars.

This hitch with the Airbourne Sidewinder worked great with the 2018 Ram 2500 Mega cab short bed with Ram boxes. Can maneuver a 90 degree turn without issue. Still have to get trailer lifted higher to get the trailer nose lowered, but for the complicated research we had on the right combo, this is tested and verified
by: David N.08/14/2018
Rugged product, easy to install, quick latch system. easy to remove. Purchased the Reese adapter with this hitch, and installation was easy. Some minor adjustments with the cam over lugs, and setting the hitch posts into the adapter. Overall very easy set up. Looks good, and can be taken apart in pieces, for ease of removal and installation, after set up. Ordering was simple and all parts came in about a week.
by: John W03/01/2019
Ordered hitch late Wednesday evening and received early afternoon on Friday, that is super fast delivery. Two cartons received with no damage and all parts were there as expected. It looks exactly as advertised online and it was at a great price. AND FREE SHIPPING.
Also made in the USA.
I am replacing my Demco Hi Jacker Auto Slider that weighs approximately 300 lbs with the Demco Recon that according to the shipping labels weighs 91 lbs. It will be installed on a Ford F150 with 5 1/2 ft bed and fiver with a Lippert Turning Point Pin box.
by: Samuel05/06/2022
This is a really nice hitch for the money. Extremely easy to installl for one person. I can’t wait to pull my camper with it. The only problem I had was how badly damaged the package was when delivered. Fortunately the hitch was not damaged. The picture shows how it was when I got it.
by: Scott09/15/2023
Hitch came in two boxes UPS. The head was stapled and secured in one box. The base and upright piece came, not in a box, but rolled up in cardboard and taped up with clear packing tape. I put it together so I could hook up and set the height and there is no hitch pin and lynch pin. I don’t know if it was rolled up in the cardboard and lost in shipping or wasn’t packed at all. I also didn’t get the instruction manual and had to go to Demcos website for it. The base and upright being rolled up together banged up the base or it was used and returned and that is why it was rolled up and not in a box. Now I have a hitch that I can’t use because I didn’t get all the parts. Called etrailer for the hitch pin and lynch pin and don’t know when it’ll arrive because it’s not an etrailer part. I can’t review the hitch because as of yet I can’t use it.
by: Jeff09/02/2021
Looks great nice workmanship. Easy to install.
Packaging on large components should be changed??? Need custom molded styrofoam to slide on two sieds and hold product in shipping box. Will include pictures of delivered packages

by: Robert02/28/2019
Haven't used it yet but it's unlikely to be anything but 5 stars. I'll update review if so. The hitch came in 2 boxes. The head was packages in a HD box. The box that the base came in was battered pretty bad. But, no marks in the base. All hardware arrived. Took about 15 minutes to assemble and get set up.
by: Daves04/08/2020
This was an upgrade from the dealer installed hitch. Best purchase since I didn't know how much longer the old hitch would last. After purchase, I was at the dealership and saw they were now selling the same hitch. Solid and rattle free.
by: Jess A.07/20/2017
The product arrived as scheduled and all the parts and pieces were in the two boxes. It installed quickly in my pickup and I hooked it to the fifth wheel and moved it forward and back. Seems to work well, takes all the slop out of the hitch. The hitch seems to be well constructed and the double latch is what I was looking for.
by: Steve M W03/17/2020
This was my first (and only, so far) fifth wheel hitch. I am towing a Jayco 25.5REOK Eagle HT, with a 2019 F150. (Before you all "go there", we ordered the truck especially for this purpose, with the max payload package, max tow package, FX4, etc. I've weighed the truck and trailer combination on certified scales, and actual payload, axle, and tow weights are under the rated capacities for t he truck. The truck sits perfectly level with the trailer loaded). Anyway, with a 6 1/2' bed, I wanted to use a rotating pin box, and the lightest hitch I could find that would satisfy that requirement. Enter the Demco Recon.
What I like: It is very light, as all steel construction hitches go - right at 100 lbs. And it breaks down easy into three primary component - the lower base, the head, and the thing in between. So not component is more than 40 lbs or so. Takes 5 minutes to break down and stow away, leaving the truck bed with only the standard hitch rails.
A few things I don't like (but have simple solutions for): The assembly has too much play, resulting in a very clunky operation and feel. The base assembly has too much play between the upper and lower parts of the base. There is a set bolt provided to take this play out, but the set bolt is located so that you can't access it with a socket, and it's tough to get to with an open end or box wrench as well. With some effort you can get it tight, but it loosens up after a couple hundred miles. My solution was to insert sheets of nylon (plastic) between the shaft of the upper part, and the tube of the lower part, so that the fit is tight, eliminating the play without use of the set bolt. Also the play between the lower base and the hitch rails are pretty generous. (I don't know how other hitches are, but this one has about 3/16" of play). My solution was to add leather pads as gaskets, between the base and the rails, which makes the J-pins a little tight, but eliminates the gap and play. Eliminating the play in these two areas makes the hitch much quieter and feel much better. The last complaint isn't an issue with the hitch per se, rather, the combination of the Sidewinder Pin Box and the hitch head. I am using the recommended locking wedge (SWW-05), but he hitch head has a rather steep ramp, and the wedge really doesn't "wedge" much of the head. That is, there isn't an abundance of contact between the wedge and the head. It's enough when the wedge is tight, but the the head will work the wedge back and out of the slot over time, even when tightened to the recommended 150 foot pounds. If the wedge moves more than a fraction of an inch, the trailer will start to handle poorly. You can feel it. And if you let this go, it will quickly become dangerous. So, I've leaned to recheck the wedge and retighten if necessary after every couple of trips, and I carry my torque wrench with the trailer.
Thanks for reading.

Seems to be a well built hitch and the 3 piece design is VERY nice in the load/unload space. Why this received 3 stars is that it was missing parts and the base was beat up badly (cosmetic) when received. Missing parts included the pins to connect the base to the rails and the pin to connect the neck to the base. Not usable at this point. Etrailer is sending out the parts, and I'll contact Demco for new stickers. Will update review and photos once I have used it.
by: Jay05/31/2023
The hitch arrived in four days was easy to install in truck not too heavy for a 70 year old man hooks up easy and I really like the double locking jaw the only issue I had was the wedge for my sidewinder the bolt holes did not line up took me about an hour making holes longer to be able to bolt up
by: Justin 04/18/2024
Looks great
by: Terry07/20/2018
love the three piece set-up of these hitches...makes them light weight and easy to handle...also when not in use there is a topper on my truck and the covertability of the hitch allows me to use my bed platform without removing the hitch...just remove two pins and back off the lock bolt and its low enough to use the two tier stacking feature of most trucks
by: Travis T04/06/2017
etrailer got it to me 2 days they r great. The hitch seems very solid and put together well. The issue I'm having is it doesn't adjust down to the height I need to ride level or what my Reese was. Haven't hooked up yet but will find out shortly if it needs to be returned.
by: Ed10/11/2021
It was a SOB! getting it installed, welding process warped feet and did not just fit into place as expected. It took some coaxing with a nine pounder on the feet tabs to fit my rails, luckily mild carbon steel is workable, however it did upset the finish. A QA check needs to be done on final dimensions prior to powder coating!
by: Morris12/24/2017
The hitch was better than expected. It was simple and easy to install. It comes apart easily thus allowing for one person to install and remove the hitch. When you examine the hitch closely you can readily see that it is well-made and is high quality, plus it is made in America!
by: Clayton04/10/2018
Product arrived on time, correct and in perfect condition.
by: Jim S03/27/2017
First shipment had a problem, the box with the base was ok. The box with the hitch head was empty except the release handle. Etrailer promptly sent out a second box with the hitch head that arrived intact. Etrailer had me send some pictures of the damaged first box and then handled the problem with UPS completely on their own. Prompt service to resolve the problem is highly commendable.

- Comparing The Demco Recon And Curt CrossWing 5th Wheel Hitches The Demco Recon # DM8550043 and Curt CrossWing # C86JR have quite a few differences that separate the two similar designs. The Recon has an extra 1,000lbs of capacity and comes with a 15-1/2", 17-1/4", or 18" height setting. The CrossWing has a 16-3/8", 18-3/8", and 20-3/8" height setting so it can sit a bit higher, which could be beneficial depending on the height need for your trailer to sit level while towing. Both heads have rubber dampeners to help with ride quality, but the CrossWing...

If you didn't want the cushioned feature you could also use the Sidewinder part # RP34FR. Your Andersen Ultimate can't be used with the Sidewinder and since you are wanting the lightest hitch possible that would be the Demco Recon part # DM8550043 which only weighs 89 lbs.

- Best 5th Wheel Hitch for a 2021 Nissan Titan Pro4x w/ a 57" Bed Thanks for the picture! To tow a 5th wheel trailer with your 2021 Nissan Titan with a 57" bed you are going to need both a 5th wheel hitch and a rotating pin box. With that short of a bed a sliding hitch is not going to be enough to give you the clearance you need. As far as the rails in the bed of your truck go, those aren't for towing and you will need to remove them. To mount a 5th wheel hitch in your Titan you will need the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom...

- Does The Demco Recon 5TH Wheel Hitch Need Lube or a Teflon Plate? I recommend using a Lube Plate # 16721 over covering the Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550043 in Grease # L74FR.

view full answer... - LED Replacement for Truck-Lite 60 on Triton Boat TrailerWe several options with similar dimensions although none of them are an exact match to the Truck-Lite 60. The Peterson LumenX LED Trailer Tail Light # M822R-7 matches your length at 7-7/8" but is a little taller at 3-5/8" and has completely different mounting holes. We also have some Optronics lights like the GloLight LED Trailer Tail Light # STL111RFMB which are 7-1/2" wide x 3-5/16" tall so a little short on the length. All of the Optronics have mounting holes that are 7" apart while...

If your Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner for Dometic Setup # ASA86YR isn't pushing out cold air then I recommend making sure cold air isn't blowing directly on the thermostat (so it thinks the RV is cooler than it is), and checking to see if the coils are freezing up. We also sell the Advent Air Diagnostic Kit for RV Air Conditioners # ACTF but this is only really useful if you either plan on only having Advent AC units or you troubleshoot...

view full answer... - Suggestion On How To Help Extend The Lift Of Timbren Rubber SpringsHello James, great question. The Timbren bump stops are known for being super durable. We do not hear any complaints of the material deteriorating over time. A lot of times you will see factory bump stops that start to degrade over time, but the Timbrens are much more durable, and this is not a common issue at all. That being said, the best thing you can do to prolong the life will be to clean them periodically. Debris and dirt from the road can speed up corrosion. Road salt is also not...
view full answer... - Does The ProPride Weight Distribution Hitch Use A Standard WD Shank?Hello Robert, that is a great question. The ProPride Weight Distribution Hitch # PR47QR uses its own unique shank, so this will not be compatible with the Gen-Y torsion attachment from the WD hitch. The ProPride hitch uses a two-piece shank system, and you will need to use the shank that comes with the ProPride hitch. The ProPride hitch is pricey, but it truly is in a class of its own as far as sway control and enhanced ride quality.

view full answer... - Recommended Suspension Enhancement for a 2008 GMC C5500 MotorhomeSteve, it sounds like you could benefit big time from a steering stabilizer # RM73RR if your GVWR is above 22,000, or # RM36RR if it's 22,000 or less. This is not going to work with your OEM suspension so you'd have to remove the factory one, but it is going to help keep your steering tight and prevent it from wandering all over the road. You're also going to need the mounting kit # RM-RBK5 to actually mount it to your vehicle. To further improve your suspension, you can also add a...

- Is There a Trailer Wiring Harness For a 2021 Tesla Model S Plaid? As there is not a custom fit wiring harness for your 2021 Tesla Model S Plaid, you are going to want to use the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT.

view full answer... - Recommended 5th Wheel Rails for a 2024 Ford F-350 w/out the Puck System So long as your customer's Pull-Rite 24k 5th wheel hitch mounts to industry standard rails, you'll want the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails item # BWRVK2402. These custom fit brackets mount to existing holes in your F-350's frame. To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C57010. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking...
