Nice heavy duty wiring and plug ends. Great instructions and pretty easy install.

Ordered Demco harness for 2011 super duty and for some reason wiring did not match my 5th wheel. Contacted e trailer and was told to ship back and they would send new harness which they did. Installed new harness and works great. Thanks for the help



by:

Have had it installed for a year now works great was easy to install. Would recommend great product.



by:

Ordering was great, delivery was quick, but they dumped all the boxes in the middle of my drive and left, without letting me know. They couldve been stolen. Prices are high compared to others and previous orders I was able to get discounts. The hitch box was completely destroyed, taped and half open in transit. Hopefully no parts are missing. Something has to change. Destroyed boxes equals destroyed products.



by:

still working good.



by: 03/21/2023

The hitch did not come with a cover to cover when not in use. I need a rain cap or cover



by:

Missing a critical part in the box - bed bracket for cable to plug into. Customer Service was great and reordered and ask for warehouse to open box and make sure bracket and cable in new box. Waiting on email and new delivery

Still happy with all of it.



by:
2022 Dodge Ram Pickup

The Demco 5th Wheel/Gooseneck p/u bed connection is just what I needed. I have always just draped the connection from the trailer over my tailgate and down to the 7pin connector on the bumper, but this is so handy to have and makes it a neater connection. Since my 2022 Ram 2500 came with the hole already provided in the bed wall, it was a breeze to install.

Wiring harness was easy to install and is holding up nicely a year and half later. Great product and price too from etrailer.

Easy quick install and plenty of cable to run this to any location within the bed of your truck. i installed this in my New 2020 GMC 3500 Denali in less than 30 minutes!! Perfect fit as always from etrailer!!



by:
2016 GMC Sierra 2500

directions are miss leading . 2" hole isn't big enough as another tab has been added which makes swinging the plug thru the hole impossible . I have a dremel tool at home and ground a tab area for the tab to go thru and was easy as pie then . Plug hook up easy and all was good after getting it thru the hole.



by:

Not to difficult to install. It will require 2 people to get the bolts torqued down. Handles a 14000 lb fifth wheel with ease



by:
2006 Chevrolet Silverado

While I had to wait for the product because of it was back ordered, the wait was not unreasonable and the etrailer staff keep me updated the whole time. The harness is high quality. Service was top notch.



by:

Easy install. Connected to factory harness and was in in about 1/2 hour.

  • 5th Wheel Hitch for 2018 Ram 3500
    Reese Elite Series 5th wheel hitch # RP30144 (which replaced the part 30085) is made only for the Ford OEM 5th wheel factory prep kit that uses under-bed rails. It will not work in a 2018 Ram. If the 2018 Ram 3500 has the factory 5th wheel prep then you can install a slider hitch from B&W, their 20K Companion model # BWRVK3670, which will drop right into the pucks in the bed. In a 2018 Ram short-bed without this factory feature you can still have an under-bed install using the Demco Hijacker...

  • B&W Gooseneck Hitch Fit for a 2020 Ram 2500
    They do! You're needing the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BWGNRK1320 for your 2020 Ram 2500 - this fits both the long and short beds. If you don't already have a 7-Way connector in your truck bed then I also recommend picking up the Demco # DM8555002 so it's easier to connect your trailer wiring. Attached are installation videos for both the hitch and wiring for you to check out.

  • Can Curt X5 Adapter for B&W Gooseneck Use Auto-Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for 2012 Ram 2500 Short Bed
    You are correct that the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitches # 16310 is not compatible with auto-sliding 5th wheel hitches as it puts too much stress on the adapter. For a sliding 5th wheel hitch, the Demco Hijacker, what you'll need to do is remove the gooseneck and install base rails on your 2012 Ram 2500. The correct parts are the following: - Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Semi-Custom Install Kit for 5th Wheel...

  • Is Demco Hijacker Premier Series 5th Wheel Hitch Compatible With 2020 Ram 3500
    Your 2020 Ram 3500 is compatible with the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Double Pivot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM6076P-16K, but by ISR I'm not sure if you are talking about standard base rails or the 5th wheel prep package on the truck, which is the puck system. So just to be thorough, here is what you will need in your 2020 Ram 3500 to use the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Double Pivot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM6076P-16K: - Standard Above-Bed Base Rails such as the Demco Hijacker Premier...

    There is not a Reese Elite Puck System Underbed kit abailable for your 2017 GMC Sierra 1500. Your best option is to use the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Dual Jaw - 20,000 lbs # BWRVK3400-5W along with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # BWGNRK1057.

    The best sliding 5th wheel hitch for your 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500 with 6-1/2 foot bed is the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 21,000 lbs # DM8550035.

  • 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 Base Rail Kit Recommendation for 5th Wheel Towing
    We do have a base rail kit that fits your 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 and for that I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit # BWRVK2504 which fits all 3 lengths of bed available for your truck. If you don't already have a 5th wheel hitch then I recommend going with the B&W Patriot because of the ride quality you get out of the 3/4" thick jaws and polyurethane bushings. The Patriot also features a cam-action latching handle that makes it easy to disconnect the king pin even on uneven ground. For...

This will help with connecting your truck to your trailer. You may also be interested in the Demco 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness with 7-Pole Plug - 10' Long # DM8555002 to add a second 7-way wiring connection to the bed of your truck for easy access to your wiring connection.

  • Fixed 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 With 5-1/2 Foot Bed
    Since your Grand Design Reflection 150 Series 290BH has the Turning Point pin box, which is similar to the Reese Sidewinder, the manufacturer is correct that you do not need a sliding 5th wheel hitch, just a fixed hitch that is compatible with a rotating pin box. And for that use the fixed Reese M5 5th Wheel Hitch # RP30928. To install the hitch you will simply need to add base rails to your Chevy, and the best option is a custom kit that does not involve drilling into your frame rails,...

This hitch will give you a nice sliding hitch that will have a 3 point indicator system to confirm proper coupling and will also have the adapter for the puck system in your factory rail kit. It will give you 12 inches of travel between the two locked positions for turning clearance when needed. If you want a hitch that moves automatically...

Most slider hitches require you to get out of the truck to release the slider mechanism before you can finish your maneuvering, but we have Demco's Hijacker automatic 5th wheel hitches that save you that hassle.

  • How Easy is it to Remove Demco Hijacker Autosliding Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch from Truck
    The Demco Hijacker Autoslide Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550034 installs onto industry standard rails. The only issue with removing the hitch from your truck is that it's heavy. The head itself is approximately 40 pounds and base is around 200 pounds. So the issue with removal is strictly weight. To install the Hijacker in your 2016 GMC 2500 you can use the Installation Kit # DM8552011-71. Also, if you'd like to install a 7-way connector inside the bed of your truck to make it easier...

  • 5th Wheel Hitch Options for 2018 Ram 3500 Pickup with 6-1/2-Foot Bed
    Reese Goosebox 5th wheel trailer couplers do not provide extended turning clearance like what comes from use of a slider hitch or a Sidewinder pivoting pin box. What the Goosebox DOES allow is using a gooseneck trailer ball to tow a 5th wheel trailer. In your 2018 Ram 3500 6-1/2-foot short-bed pickup you can use a slider hitch and either industry-standard above-bed base rails or an under-bed kit. For example, the Demco Hijacker 21K hitch # DM8550037, which offers a whopping 14-inches of...

If you wanted to go with an under bed mount system then you will need to use the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider part # DM8550022 with the Underbed Rail and Installation Kit part # DM8550022.

  • 20,000 lb Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for 2019 Ram 2500 and 5th Wheel Wiring Harness
    There are 20,000 lb sliding 5th wheel hitches that are a fit for your 2019 Ram 2500, though the Pro Series you asked about has been discontinued. So instead, the best option is from Curt, the A20 hitch, and Curt base rails. This will give you a drill-free base rail system (which is great for your truck), and one of the highest-quality 5th wheel hitches on the market due to it's superior jaw system. This means less rattle and a much, much more comfortable ride. The parts you need are the...

    In your 5-1/2-foot short bed 2016 Ram 1500 you cannot use your Pro Series slider hitch because it will not provide enough turning clearance for your 5th wheel. You can use the hitch in the truck (always keeping it in its forward locked position) only if you install a replacement pin box on the trailer called a Sidewinder. A Sidewinder moves the trailer's pivot point 22-inches to the rear, which provides more clearance for preventing contact between the trailer overhang and the truck cab....

  • Recommended Sliding 5th Wheel Hitch for 2013 Ram 3500 Diesel Short Bed Towing Sandpiper 379
    5th wheel towing is possible with short-bed trucks but it is certainly easier with a long bed. Short bed trucks will require either a sliding type hitch or a fixed hitch along with a Sidewinder replacement pin box on the trailer in order for you to have enough turning clearance to avoid trailer-to-cab contact. Long bed trucks avoid this issue completely; they can use standard fixed hitches and a new Sidewinder pin box is not required. You can refer to the linked articles for more on this. If...

The oval connector socket does work with a US Car adapter end, so it is compatible with the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 7' Long # C56070 or the Demco # DM8555002 for a 10 foot long adapter. This will give it a really nice and clean look.
