Can Demco Hijacker Autoslide For 2022 F-350 w/ Prep Package Connect While on Sloped Driveway
Question:
I have a driveway with an 8 degree slope and will be stopped on the street with the truck, while the trailer is backed up the slope. How much can the head tilt to connect and disconnect when the backend of the trailer is above the truck. I don’t want it to bind and not connect or disconnect Thanks

Expert Reply:
There isn't a set number of degrees, but you do need to be as level as possible, and a sloped driveway is going to be too much of an angle to properly hitch up your truck to the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package # DM8550024.
That said, it's going to be the same for all the hitches at such an angle; it'll be too large a slope and if it is possible at all you'll need to find more level ground to hitch up.
