Video Transcript for Review of XG Cargo Vehicle Organizer - Jeep Side Sportsbar Storage - XC27FR
Ellen: Hey everyone. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com and today we're going to be taking a look at the Recon Side Sportsbar cargo bags from XG Cargo. So they have kind of a couple of different orientations of these side bags for your Jeep. These are going to be the Recon side bags, but they also have the Magellan and the Gama. Really the only difference between the bags is that they're going to be positioned at a little different spots.So this particular bag is going to be kind of up in the corner of that sportsbar. So this would be facing towards the front of your Jeep.
So it kind of fits into that right angle made by the sportsbar. So this would kind of be there in place of your window for that back seat in your Jeep. You can orient this so that the bag, so that this portion is facing out or in, it doesn't really matter which way you want to do it. It kind of depends on how you want to use it.Both sides will have the stitching here, these attachment points for any kind of (molly) or any other military-style attachments. So this is a system that utilizes those kinds of straps that go through, and then you can build on different attachments for all kinds of stuff.
A lot of brands use them now. So there's a lot of different things you could attach and build on here.And there's also going to be the same thing on the back. It just doesn't have the high-contrast stitching like it does on the front with that orange stitching. It's just going to be black on black here. There's also a back zipper pocket as well.
So you can sit stash the little stuff back there. The front has kind of a similar thing,, pocket, but it has a little mesh bag inside or mesh pocket inside. And there's a bit more space. This one in the back is a bit flatter because there's a reinforcement panel in the back of this to give it some structure and stability.So both of these bags are going to be exactly the same. You get two.
So one for either side. Inside the main compartments, open this up. And we'll have a few different dividers. So this would be a really good place to stash any kind of tools or smaller gear that you want to keep separated. Kind of hard for you guys to see inside, especially since it's all very black on black on black, but there's little pockets, some little narrower, some little wider, so you can stash all that stuff inside. And then there's a bigger pocket towards the back for your bigger flatter items. It's also a little cable. So if you want to attach any kind of ropes or maybe keys and have them hanging off of this hook, you can do that there. So it should be a pretty nice way to keep everything organized.The bottom of this inside compartment does kind of match up to the pocket on the front. So there's a floor to this inner pocket, kind of hear that in there. So this pocket is separate from this one that has its own little structure and reinforcement. So if you want to keep stuff separated or you have something a little bit heavier in this top pocket, you don't have to worry about it coming down and crushing whatever you have in here. Reinforcement along this side and this top side, as well as a handle up top. So if you want to take this with you, you can.So for instance, if you rock climb, you can have all of your gear in here, all your ropes and everything else, and then detach it from your Jeep, take it with you. Makes it pretty easy. These straps have some padding to go around the sportsbar and protect it from any kind of scratches and abrasions.And also something that's kind of nice that it has this quick disconnect. So it's just like a little metal clasp. So just doesn't require too much pressure to open that up, but it holds together really nicely. So just to show that again. Open it up, close it up. It makes it pretty fast. And that's going to be the same for all three attachment points on the bag.As far as specs, the numbers with this. Again, you get the both storage bags. They measure about 19 inches tall by about 17 inches wide. And then about three and a half or three and three quarter inches thick. The cubic space in here, we'll get a 0.75 cubic feet of space per bag. So about three quarters of a cubic foot per bag here.They do have a three-year limited warranty. These will fit the 2007 through the current Jeep Wrangler. So that's going to be the Jeep JK and the JL. Pretty simple to get installed. I think these are nice looking bags. Again, there are the two other styles, the Gama and the Magellan that are pretty similar to this. They just mount in slightly different spots. So if you want to check those out, you can find those right here at etrailer.com. Again, I'm Elena here, and thanks for watching..

I like it’s design and how it sits in the bed. It seems to want to rotate some while pulling. I see some reviews that other people are having this problem also. Some have put a bolt down through the base into the truck bed. I haven’t wanted to do that as of yet. Otherwise I like the hitch.
by: Harvey03/02/2019
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.

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: John05/08/2024
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.
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.
by: Johnny03/08/2024
Easy to set up and use I borrowed a buddies cause I bought a camper and didn’t have a hitch set up in the bed of my truck just had the goose neck ball pulled real nice so I order o e just like it
by: Barry 03/27/2024
Hitch works great and delivery from etrailer was fast.
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.

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: Gary 11/17/2023
I bought this to replace a Demco Autoslide hitch. The Autoslide was great but too heavy for me. Because of my bad back, this was a great choice! The hitch is awesome, easy to put in and out. Quiet and smooth towing. Thx E-Trailer!
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: 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: Peter Bay08/18/2023
Part was delivered vey damaged. Looks like a couple thousand miles has already been put on it and it’s not even installed yet! Missing Lynch pin .313 is missing! Not happy at all.
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.

So far so good pulling my fifth wheel around. I went this route so I could have dual purpose and not corner myself with just a drop in plate with my trucks factory fifth wheel package. No issues with this hitch, locks tight and no slop.
by: Robert K11/10/2019
works every time has never failed, replaced a curt 20k that i used for 10 years,lots of times it wouldnt click and lock .easy to use no chucking.very happy with this hitch.3 years ago i installed air lift air bags ,love them too!!etrailer is a great place to buy from
by: Justin 04/18/2024
Looks great
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: 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: 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: 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: Frank10/17/2022
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: 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: David10/10/2021
Very noisy!! Makes you think something broke. It’s good if you don’t want to break the bank. But when parking you’ll hear the loud noises coming from the hitch. Other than that it works fine.
