Capture Plate For Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch
Question:
I just bought an 04 duramax shortbed with an 18k auto slide. My 5th wheel is a 1999 25 ft hitch hiker. The factory plate on the pin box is way smaller than the tightest adjustments for the plate adjustments. Is the an adapter plate that i need to install?

From what you are describing, it sounds like you may need a capture plate for your Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550034. There is one option for longer capture plates than what come with the Hijacker:
- Demco Autoslide Capture Plates for Rota-Flex Pin Boxes # DM6171
While designed for Rota-Flex pin boxes, they will work with other pin boxes as well.
