Compatibility of Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram DM6099 with Other 5th Wheel Hitches

Expert Reply:
The Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram # DM6099 fits into the factory towing prep puck system in such trucks and provides the equivalent of industry-standard above-bed base rails (ISRs) that will accept any hitch designed for ISRs. Fixed and sliding ISR hitches will be compatible so long as they are intended to mount in base rails and not another type of mounting system.
Reese offers a similar adapter kit # RP30154 for the Ram prep package that also serves as the equivalent of above-bed base rails.
I could not find any information on a Tough Tow brand 5th wheel hitch.
