Demco Hijacker Autoslide Fifth Wheel Hitch Recommendation for 2018 GMC Sierra 2500
Question:
I have a 2018 GMC 2500 HD without the prep. Will the Demco Autoslide work and what are the part numbers
asked by: John F
Expert Reply:
For your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500HD short bed without the hitch prep package you'd want the Demco Hijacker Autoslide part # DM8550034 and then for the custom rail kit that fits your truck you'd want the part # DM8552011-71 which is custom fit for your truck. Custom rail kits install much quicker than universal rail kits and minimize drilling. I attached an install video for this rail kit in a similar 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 for you to check out as well.
