How To Use Demco Autoslide or Premier Series 5th Wheel Hitch on 2020 Ram 2500 with Puck System
Question:
Friends: Need some help with a product ... I have a 2020 Ram 2500 tradesman gas model with puck system. The intent is to pull a 5th wheel. I have found two used 18k Demco autoslide hitchs on Facebook Marketplace. The first is model number 6003 with MFG date: 4/11/17. The second is premiere series with model number 6007 and serial number J832131. Neither seem to fit my puck system so I will need some sort of adapters. I have pics of both hitches if that would be helpful to send and see. What adapters, etc. do I need to make this work on my truck. Thanks for your help! Blessings,

In order to use a Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch on a 2020 Ram 2500 with Puck System you'd need the Replacement Side Plates for Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # DM99GV.
In order to use a Demco Premier Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch on a 2020 Ram 2500 with Puck System you'd need the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package part # DM6099.
I recommend the Autoslide as it fits into the pucks without an adapter and it slides back automatically so you don't have to get in and out of the cab each time you make sharp turns.
