Expert Reply:
The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch part # DM8550038 is specifically designed to fit Ford trucks that were equipped with the factory prep package and cannot be installed unless you have this package or have the dealer install it.
I do however, have the same 5th wheel hitch in the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # DM8550037 that is compatible with your 2017 Ford F-250 Super Duty using the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Below-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches part # DM8551009.
