Auto Slider Fifth Wheel Hitch for 2013 For F-250 Short Bed

Question:

I need everything for this hitch, the Truck is a 2013 F-250 full crew cab and a short bed, 6+ feet long. There is nothing on the Truck right now to support this hitch, so please be so kind to let me know if the package you have listed includes everything I need, or, if I have to purchase anything else along with it. If possible, please send me the direct links to whatever I need to purchase to safely install this hitch.

There are a lot of great options for fifth wheel hitches for your 2013 Ford F-250, but the Demco Hijacker # DM8550024 is for use with Ford F-250 models that have the OEM Prep Package. Since you do not have the OEM Prep Package, I recommend the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550022 and the Underbed Rail and Installation Kit for Demco Hijacker # DM8551000.

This is the same autoslider system with a 18,000 lbs gross trailer weight capacity, it just has a different base for attachment. The installation kit attaches under the bed of your F-250 allowing you to easily install the autoslider and leaves your truck bed clean for other uses when the fifth wheel hitch is not installed. Check out the videos I linked below for installation details.
