The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 18K # DM8550024 has 3 hitch height options from the floor of the truck bed to the hitch plate. The low position measures 15-1/2 inches, the mid position is 16-3/4 inches, and the high position is 18-1/4 inches. I've attached a photo to assist.
For easy connection and a clean look, I recommend the Demco 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness with 7-Pole Plug # DM8555002 to add a 7-way to the bed of your truck and still give you a functioning 7-way at your bumper as well if you don't already have that option included.
