Will Demco Hijacker Autoslide Hit Tailgate of 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 with OEM Pucks
Question:
On my 2022 Chevy 14 inches of slide will hit the tailgate I believe as I measure it it looks like there is only about 12 and 1!4 inch to distance to the tailgate. So am I right this hitch would hit

Expert Reply:
Demco has test fit their 18k Hijacker Autoslide part # DM8550034 in the bed of your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 short bed with the OEM rail kit adapter part # DM6333 and found that it fit perfectly and there was no clearance issues.
I attached a picture of this hitch and adapter installed in the bed of a Chevy truck like yours and you can see that there's plenty of clearance to slide back without hitting the tailgate.
