This hitch is rated for 31,000 lbs GTW, making it the highest capacity setup in its class. It’s built from solid steel with a corrosion-resistant powder coat finish and uses heavy welded components that feel rock-solid under load. The one-piece wraparound jaw and 3/4" thick locking bar reinforce the connection so you can pull massive fifth-wheel trailers without worrying about flex or slop.
The wraparound jaw completely surrounds the king pin for 360-degree contact. That tight fit means less rattle and more security than standard slide-bar designs. When the jaw closes, the solid steel locking bar automatically snaps into place, adding an extra layer of protection against accidental uncoupling. The result is a quiet, confident hookup that feels tight every mile down the road.

The double-pivot head moves both front to back and side to side so it naturally follows the trailer as you drive. Three polyurethane dampeners absorb shock and reduce noise from road bumps or trailer movement. Together, these features help cut down on chucking and make towing feel smoother and more controlled—especially on long hauls.


Installing this hitch takes just a few steps—bolt the side plates to the base, set your height between 16" and 19", and drop it into the four receiver pucks. Turn the handles to lock it in place and secure with the safety pins. When you want your bed clear, pull the pins, twist the handles, and lift it out. The head removes separately—about 40 lbs for that piece and roughly 160 lbs for the base—making it easier to handle without equipment.

The hitch functions great but the finish is peeling off in places.

After a year, my only complaint is still paintcoating.

Still very satisfied with the fifth wheel. Weve towed our 42ft fifth wheel with it several times without any problems with the hitch. Hopkins up and unhooking with no problems at all. We would highly recommend this product.

Fantastic after a full year of use. 5er weighs 16k and no lurching. Also very nice when parking on an un level surface... Just hook up and go! I have done 9 trips with about 5k total miles so far. It is very easy to remove-even after back surgery. Highly recommend.

The Demco Hijacker is compatible with any standard pinbox, and should work well with your new fifth wheel.

One year down and I am going strong with several more in the future! I have no complaints with this hitch. I recommend it to everyone that asks about it. Thanks again.

Thanks for the detailed review! Glad to hear the installation went smoothly and you're happy with the features of the Demco hitch. Being able to remove the head separately definitely makes getting it in and out of the truck more manageable.
