Expert Reply:
If your newly acquired Demco Hijacker 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch was manufactured before 2012, most likely you will need the Replacement Rails for Demco Hijacker # DM6014. These rails are specifically designed for the older-model Demco Hijacker that uses non-industry standard rails. If you are able to locate and tell me the model number for your Hijacker Hitch, I will be happy to confirm that it was produced before 2012.
You will just need to add the Demco Custom Mounting Brackets # DM8552016 that will mount beneath the truck bed and provide attachment points for the above mentioned rails. These are custom-fit brackets that will use existing holes in your 2004 Dodge Ram frame to reduce drilling and installation time.
I am not sure what type of L brackets you have that came with the hitch so I cannot be certain if they will fit your truck.
