To convert the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM8550038 from fitting the Ford under bed system to the Demco under bed you will need the Side Plates # DM6004. These will replace the current side plates and include new hardware. The Underbed Rail and Installation Kit # DM8551009 is the custom fit Demco UMS system which will fit a 2019 Ford F-350 without the factory under bed system.
