Review of Pro Series Fifth Wheel - Sliding Fifth Wheel - PS30094- Video
Today we're going to take a look at the Pro Series fifth wheel trailer hitch with the square tube slider. It has a 16,000 pound weight capacity. Now this is a nice sturdy and reliable fifth wheel hitch at an affordable cost and it's perfect for short bed trucks because this hitch has a slider that will move the hitch and the kingpin 10" closer to your tailgate for increased turning clearance, so this will enable your short bed truck to make normal turns during slow speed maneuvers and in narrow spaces without the fear of the trailer's overhang hitting the cab of your vehicle.This does use a rounded slide bar single jaw system which will automatically latch around the trailer's kingpin. It offers improved low management and ride when compared with similar models. The head on this is a nice four-way pivoting head. It helps with the trailer hookup. more

Once you lock the handle open, when you back your king pin in, or back up to your trailer, it's going to spread this apart just a little bit. What it's going to do, it's going to put pressure on this side, which is going to release the handle lock and allow the jaw to close.You're going to have guide rails here and that's what sets this apart from others. These guide rails can be adjusted depending on the size of your pin box. All you would do is once you have your pin box, or you're attached to your fifth wheel, you're going to take these rails, going to loosen them up, slide them in, up against your pin box and then tighten them back into place. more

Reese Elite Series Underbed Rail Adapter Installation - 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty- Video
Today in our 2019 Ford F-350 Super Duty you're going to be taking a look at, I'm sure you have it installed, the Reese Elite Series Under Bed Rail Adapter for standard fifth wheel trailer hitches, part number RP-30156.This is where our above bedrail kit looks like when it's installed.

However, we went out and bought a new truck and our new truck is equipped with an under bed kit. Rather than going out and spending that extra money on a new hitch to mount in our factory under bed kit, we can pick up this rail kit, mount it directly to that under bed kit and that gives us an above bed rail kit that's going to allow us to utilize our old fifth wheel hitch.This above bed rail kit will handle 15, 16, and even 20 thousand pound weight capacity fifth wheel hitches. Each wheel is going to have two slots on the end to help accommodate different sized fifth wheel hitches.Your handles are going to lock into place to keep your rails from disconnecting from your bed. more

Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Review- Video
Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the Demco recon 5th wheel trailer hitch, this is for above bed rails and offers a 21,000 pound capacity, part number is DM-8550043. The recon 5th wheel from Demco is designed to make your hauling a lot easier, and also a lot quieter.Basically we have a light weight design, that's something I like about this one as compared to a lot of the other 5th wheels you're gonna see out there on the market. Got a pin here we can remove and we can take this out of the truck in two pieces, so really only gonna need one guy.Now a lot of the other traditional style 5th wheels, it's usually a two man job to get everything in place. And when it comes to weight capacities the hitch offers a vertical load limit of 5,250 pounds, so that's gonna be the maximum weight we can have pressing downward on our head, and our gross trailer weight rating, which is gonna be the weight of our trailer and anything we might load up in it, that's gonna be 21,000 pounds.Of course you do want to keep in mind you don't want to exceed the capacity of your vehicle, so whatever your trucks rated for, or whatever the hitch is rated for, which ever one is lower that's the ones you want to use.To make it quieter they use polyurethane brushings, we've got one on the head here so we don't have to deal with that noise as we're going down the road, and also on that side to side pivot, so we get a really nice quiet operating system you'll see that in the reviews.Also to add to that ease of use, not only is it easy to get it in and out of the truck, but it's easy to connect to your camper. It's gonna pivot left and right, and forward and back. So if your camper's on a little bit of an angle, with traditional style 5th wheels it was kinda hard to get those connected, you had to get everything level just so it would slide in just right. more

Part number DM8550024.Here's what our Demco auto slide fifth wheel looks like installed. Now the main reason you're going to want a sliding fifth wheel such as this one over other options on the market is that this is going to solve two problems that many of our customers encounter.

So when you go to make tight turns, you find that you run the risk of having contact with the cab of your truck to the overhang on your fifth wheel trailer.The second problem that people encounter is that when they purchase a slider in order to solve the short bed problems when towing a fifth wheel, is that most sliders out there are manual controlled. Which means every time you need to get into a maneuvering position, you have to get out of the truck, operate a handle in order to get your truck into the maneuvering position. more
