Underbed Demco Hijacker Fifth Wheel Rail Kit Recommendation for 2016 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a Hijacker FWH 24 5th wheel hitch removed from my 2004 Ford F250 and want to install it on my new 2016 Ford F150. Can you advise what kit would do the job to have the hitch rails sit on the bed without cross rails if possible? Tks

Expert Reply:
For your 2016 Ford F-150 with a 6-1/2 foot bed Demco does make a fifth wheel rail kit that does mount under the bed and does not put rails above the truck bed. For that you would need the part # DM8552028-71.
You would need to have a Demco Hijacker designed for these rails though like the Hijacker part # DM8550034.
