  • How To Select The Correct Slide Out Bed Tray Length For a 2018 Ford F-150 Limited?
  • The Truck Trolley Truck Bed Slide Out Tray # TR87VR has an overall length of 62-1/2" so it will fit either both the 5-1/2', and 6-1/2' bed lengths. For an 8' bed you would want the Tray # TR99VR as it will include an Extension Kit # TR59VR. Personally I much prefer the BedSlide Sliding Truck Bed Tray w/ T-Tracks options as they build the trays to fit the bed sizes rather than having a universal kit like the Truck Trolley above. 5-1/2' Bed # BE63WR 6-1/2' Bed # BE35WR 8' Bed # BE82WR

  • 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for 2016 Ford F-250 Short Bed with Factory Prep Package
  • For your 2016 Ford F-250 short bed with the factory prep package I recommend the Demco HiJacker auto-sliding 5th wheel trailer hitch # DM8550038. This hitch fits directly into the prep package pucks in the truck bed. It is rated for 21,000 pounds. But the coolest feature is that it slides automatically. You want have to get in and out of the truck to slide it back! I have included a link to a video review of this hitch for you.

  • Storage Cover for Northstar TC-650 Pop-Up-Style Slide-In Truck Bed Camper
  • We do offer storage covers for campers like your Northstar TC-650 pop-up-style slide-in truck bed camper. Northstar's website specifies the TC-650's length as 13-feet (156-inches) and its width as 7-feet (84-inches). When closed the camper is just over 6-feet high.

  • Demco offer an 18K or a 21K auto sliding fifth wheel hitch for your truck. For an 18K, use part # DM8550024 or # DM8550038 for a 21K capacity. These hitches are specifically designed to drop right into the existing pucks (initial adjustment might be needed) without needing an adapter of any kind.

  • Availability of Install Kit to Install Valley Fifth Wheel Hitch on 2007 Ford F250 Super Duty
  • To measure the length of your truck bed, measure from the front of the bed rearward to the rear edge of the bed (not the end of the tailgate). If you have the 6-1/2 foot bed, you will need to use a sliding fifth wheel hitch to provide additional clearance between the front of the trailer and the rear of the cab during low speed maneuvering. Failure to use a sliding hitch on a short bed truck could cause the front of the trailer to strike the rear of the truck cab during turns. The fifth...

  • Truck Bed Wiring for a Slide in Camper on a 2008 Nissan Titan
  • With a camper in the bed, and an in-line wiring harness connected, you will retain the use of the 7-Way at the rear of the truck (if it has a factory tow package) but you will not be able to use both at the same time. Either the camper can be plugged in or the trailer. Trying to use both at the same time will overload the electrical system in the truck. If your 2008 Nissan Titan has a factory tow package, what you can do to provide wiring for the truck bed camper is install the Curt 5th...

  • Recommended Fifth Wheel Hitch Installation Kit for 2015 Ram 2500 4WD 6 Foot Bed
  • Reese offers three different 5th wheel installation kits that are compatible with your 2015 Ram 2500. The Universal Kit part # RP30035 is a lower cost alternative, but because holes would need to be drilled into the truck frame, install would take longer than it would with a Custom Install Kit. An outboard custom kit is available as part # RP50054-58. This kit uses fifth wheel bed rails that are longer, that allow the rails to connect to the bed brackets on the outboard side of the truck...

  • Recommended Underbed 5th Wheel System and Sliding Hitch for 2021 Chevy 2500 Compatibility
  • There is not currently a non-OEM underbed puck system compatible with your 2021 Chevy 2500. The Reese Elite underbed pucks are what fit your Ford compatible Sliding 5th wheel hitch, but they have not yet made a compatible system for the new model Chevy/GM trucks as of 11/2020. Unfortunately that means there isn't currently a fit compatible with your hitch for your truck so another option will need to be considered. My recommendation for a clean bed and sliding hitch for your truck is...

  • Can Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch Be Used in Long Bed Truck
  • A slider hitch isn't needed with an 8 foot bed truck, but it doesn't hurt anything to use one though. Only downside is that it's going to weigh more than a stationary hitch really.

  • Is an Under-Bed Mounted 5th Wheel Hitch Option Available for 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
  • By 'standard bed', I assume you're speaking of the 6-1/2 foot bed. If that isn't the case, please let me know. There isn't a puck system available that's like the OEM puck system offered on the 3/4 and 1 ton trucks, but we do offer a solution that might work for you that has the mount for the hitch install so it's under the bed which leaves the bed unobstructed. Once the hitch is removed, there'll just be a single hole in the truck bed which won't interfere with loading or unloading the...
