Underbed Auto Sliding Hitch for 2013 Ram 2500 Short Bed
Question:
Hello, I plan to purchase a 2021 Artic Wolf 3550 Suite and need to know which mounting rails and auto slider hitch will work with this 6 1/2 ft truck bed. I am open to using either above bed or under bed rails and would prefer custom fit for attachment to the frame. Also, this truck comes with a small lift as standard. Will this interfere with my bed rail clearance? Will I be able to adjust enough to get a good clearance between the bed rails and the RV? Truck is 2013 Ram Laramie Longhorn 2500 Cummins Diesel Mega Cab 4x4. Thanks in advance.

For an under-bed autosliding fifth wheel hitch solution for your 2013 Ram 2500 the best option is the Demco Hijacker Auto Slider part # DM8550022 and the underbed rail kit part # DM8551005 and you'd be set. Or if you need a higher 21k capacity hitch you'd want the part # DM8550037 instead.
If your truck has a standard suspension height you'd have nothing to worry about. If you have a suspension lift beyond that it would really depend on how big of a lift the truck has.
