You'll need the Demco SL Series frame brackets and bed rails which are provided with the # DM8553004-12 bracket/rail kit. The SL series is a sliding hitch, so because you have a long bed truck, you'll want to leave the hitch slid forward in its towing position at all times.

If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the bed of the truck so you won't have to run the trailer connector cable up over the tailgate, you can install one using part # C56000.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
