Will Demco HiJacker 5th Wheel Hitch for Ford Factory Puck System Fit Spray-In Bedliner in 2017 F-250
Question:
Just ordered the subject hitch and have a 2017 Ford F-250 with factory installed 5th wheel prep package. Right now the 6 3/4foot bed has no liner. I want to have a spray-in liner done before ping the hitch into the puck system. Im estimating the liner to be between a 16th and 3/32s of an inch thick. Will the extra thickness of the bed liner over top the metal bed be a problem when I try to rotate and lock the handles to secure the hitch to the underbed rails?

A spray-in bed liner will not be an issue for Demco HiJacker 5th wheel trailer hitch # DM8550024 for a 2017 Ford F-250 short bed with the factory puck system. There is some adjustability in the T-bolts should the slight height difference be an issue which I do not anticipate.
