The Demco Hijacker Autoslide Locking Plate for Extended 5th Airborne Pin Boxes # DM6062 measures 12.51 inches wide and 20.01 inches long according to my tech contact at Demco including the bend in the front and the sides so that is the outermost parts.

This is comparable to the 14-5/8 inch length and 11-5/16 inch width of the Demco # DM6026 for standard 5th Airborne pin boxes.
