{"product_id":"demco-8550023-demco-rv-14-0528-fifth-wheel-trailer-hitch","title":"Demco Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch – Premier Series, In-Bed Mount, With Head\/ Head Support\/ Handle Kit | 8550023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Demco 8550023 is an 18K Autoslide fifth wheel hitch for above-bed mounting on bed rails (Demco's Ultra Series mounting system). The Autoslide head slides back automatically as you make a tight turn, up to 14\" of travel, so a short-bed truck can turn sharply without the trailer's nose hitting the cab, and there's no getting out to pull a pin and slide the hitch by hand. If you already have a Demco Hijacker Ultra Series manual-slide or stationary hitch, this Autoslide can drop into the same mounting system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's rated for 18,000 lb gross trailer weight and 4,500 lb pin weight. The wrap-around jaw with locking bar holds the kingpin securely, three height positions help level the truck and trailer, and the slide works on standard pin boxes without a locking plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbove-bed rail installation; a vehicle-specific installation (bracket) kit is required, sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard kingpin boxes (no locking plate needed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome air-ride or cushioned pin boxes (such as Glide Ride, MOR\/ryde or Trailair) require a locking plate, sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNever exceed the lowest rating among your truck, hitch, rails and trailer.
