Is the 21K Demco Hijacker UMS Compatible with a 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500

Question:

Does the Demco ums 21k part # 8550032 mounting rails fit on a 2019 Chevy 3500 dually or has GM made a change in the frame from previous years? Looking to buy a new hitch and double checking before ordering. Thanks

For the Demco Hijacker UMS Double Pivot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550032 to fit your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 you actually need the specific Underbed Rail and Installation Kit # DM8551010 from Demco.

If you have the OEM prep package on your Chevy and you are wanting to use a similar 21K Demco 5th wheel hitch then you would need to use the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Double Pivot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM6076P-21K along with the 5th Wheel Rail Adapter # DM6206.

These 5th wheel hitches actually use the same head unit with the only difference being the saddle bracket and side plates. If you already have the UMS and you are needing to fit the puck system on your Chevy then you just need the Saddle Bracket # DM6023 and Side Plates # DM6060 along with the adapter # DM6206 that I mentioned above.

Review videos have been linked for both Demco 5th wheel hitches for you to reference.
