Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch For 2019 Ram 2500 Short Bed With Factory Prep Package
Question:
Best Slider hitch for 2019 Ram 2500 with factory prep package need 19K
asked by: Jason
Expert Reply:
The best slider hitch for the 2019 Ram 2500 with prep package is the Demco Hijacker Autoslide part # DM8550035 and adapter part # DM6099. The Hijacker Autoslide will allow you to make the sharp turns with your trailer without getting out of the truck and adjusting the slider every time which can become very inconvenient especially in bad weather. The 360 degree king pin contact of the single hook jaw also eliminates rattling and chucking for a more comfortable ride quality.
The Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package part # DM6099 will adapt the factory prep package to give you industry standard rails in the bed for the Hijacker.
I also highly recommend to use 5th wheel wiring part # 50-97-410 that will allow you to have a 7-way plug in the bed for easier hook up.
