Features to know about

Faster Install Time: Custom Brackets Line Up with Existing Frame Holes

This kit uses custom-fit brackets that mount to the existing holes in your truck’s frame. That means less drilling, fewer steps, and no guesswork when positioning the rails. By avoiding known obstacles along the frame, it saves you time and keeps the install clean. The brackets mount underneath the bed to give solid attachment points for the above-bed base rails.

Compatible with Popular Fifth Wheel Hitches: Industry-Standard Rails Add Flexibility

The included base rails work with a wide range of hitches, not just Demco. They’re compatible with popular brands like B&W, Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Husky, Reese, and Valley. That flexibility gives you options now and later if you decide to change hitches or already own one from another manufacturer.

Built to Last: Powder-Coated Steel Resists Corrosion

Both the brackets and rails are made from sturdy steel with a black powder coat finish that stands up to rust and scratches. It’s a strong foundation you can rely on for hauling your fifth wheel season after season.

Complete Setup: Rails, Brackets, and Hardware Included

You get everything needed to mount your fifth-wheel hitch—two above-bed base rails, custom under-bed brackets, and all necessary hardware. It’s a ready-to-install setup designed to make getting on the road easier and more straightforward.

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 2015 Nissan Titan King Cab
    For your 2015 Nissan Titan King Cab that has a 6-1/2 foot bed it looks like your max trailer towing capacity would be 9,500 lbs like you mentioned. You'd need to go with a trailer that when loaded does not exceed this weight. Since your truck bed is shorter than 8 feet you will need a slider hitch to allow you clearance to make tight turns. My favorite option is the Demco Hijacker AutoSlide part # DM8550034 as it slides back automatically as you make tight turns saving you the hassle of...

  • Will Reese 5th Wheel Rails Work with a Demco HiJacker 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch
    There is a version of the Demco HiJacker 5th wheel hitch that fits in industry standard above the bed rails but it does not look like yours is one of them. Yours looks like it fits the below the bed system so it would not work with the Reese rails. There isn't a Demco below the bed installation kit for your 2006 Nissan Titan that will work. So what I recommend is a new hitch and installation kit. Since your truck has the 6-1/2 foot bed you will likely need a slider to be able to make...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch and Rail Kit Recommendation for 2006 Nissan Titan
    We have fifth wheel hitch solutions designed for your 2006 Nissan Titan. You didn't mention what length bed you have so I'll give you both options based on the two available bed lengths. If you have the 5-1/2 foot long bed you'll need a slider that can slide 22-1/2 inches back around corners so that you don't have trailer to truck cab interference. For that you'd want the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550040 as this is the only option that has enough travel. For a rail kit you'd then want the...

  • Slider Hitch with Enough Clearance for 2011 Nissan Titan 5-1/2 foot Bed
    Since the bed of your 2011 Nissan Titan is less than 6 feet you'd need a slider hitch that slides farther than the Superglide 2700 you referenced. There's currently only one hitch with that much sliding clearance and it's the Demco Hijacker part # DM8550040 which slides back 22-1/2 inches automatically. This is about twice as much as a standard slider hitch. For a rail kit to fit this hitch in the bed of your 2011 Nissan Titan you'd want the part # DM8552021-71 and you'd be set.

  • Does 2006 Nissan Titan with 5-1/2 ft Bed Have to Use Sidewinder Pin Box
    Since you have such a short bed you will need to replace your current pin box with a Sidewinder so that you can make tight turns without interference for your best solution. But we do have one solution that doesn't require a Sidewinder. I will get that that in a minute though... Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have now in order to pick out the correct one. There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box of the trailer that will...

  • Will Demco Hijacker Autoslide Fifth Wheel Hitch Work With 2014 Nissan Titan With 5-1/2 Ft Bed
    You are absolutely correct. The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, part # DM8550040 and the installation kit part # DM8552021-71 will work great with your Titan truck. This fifth wheel hitch automatically slides to give you 22-1/2 inches of additional clearance when negotiating tight turns. You don't have to worry about climbing out of the cab of your truck to operate a manual slider like most fifth wheels. The rotating head will turn up to 90 degrees and also features...
