Correct Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Ford F-150 5.5' Bed
Question:
Is this compatible with my 2019 Ford F-150 with 5.5ft bed? I am looking to tow a 2021 Cougar Half-Ton 24RDS not equipped with a turning point pin box.

The correct Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for a 2019 Ford F-150 is part # DM8550040 which will then require the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit part # DM8552028-71 to be used.
The 13K is the only version with enough travel to be used on 5-1/2' truck beds. It was actually designed for these 1/2 ton, 5-1/2' bed trucks since the highest tops out around 13,500 lbs.
