Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 18,000 lbs
I love this 5th wheel. I installed it in my 2007 Toyota Tundra with above bed rail system had no problem with the installation. I had a manual slide before and I always had a problem getting it to release and I would have to have my wife move the truck back & forth so I could get it to release and go through it again at the campground or at tight turns. Now none of that. I can hook up by myself no problem on tight turns. The hitch is heavy duty and well made works great! I am well Please with this purchase.
The new lower base for the Demco hitch arrived on Tuesday via Freight it was a great interaction the driver I actually knew from a previous delivery, me and a friend were able to lift the old one out of the bed of my truck and install the new one today and all I have to say is... PERFECT FIT! It appears that Demco has already redesigned the lower base compared to my original one to prevent this problem from happening again. I was actually kind of shocked to see that upgrade and change. I cannot say enough good words about you with etrailer and Demco working with me to get this problem solvedm Yes it took a little bit of work, ultimately this time we got it. I cannot thank you guys enough. My friend and I will be finalizing the installation and getting it locked down to the bed with a few custom spacers for the lower rails this weekend. Here are a few pictures of the installation resuming. If I remember , when I finally pick up my new camper, I'll send some pictures along too. Have to give credit where credit is due . Not sure of you have a customer wall at HQ. I know we had one in my old shop. Anyway.. thank you again .

Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter - 20,000 lbs
I ordered fifth wheel Rails, hitch, a tailgate, and trailer wiring harness for my 2009 Tundra. etrailer provided excellent service and products. Web site pictures, videos and info were superb. In the course of ordering these items I was helped by several staff persons; all of whom were polite, knowledgeable and most helpful. Over several years, etrailer has helped me with a variety of items for a couple of RVs. Always a great experience. They have the eq, they know about it, and they follow through. After my eq is installed, and I have used it, I will review again and send pictures.
They advertise you can be within 3” of hitch and still connect I found that you need to be almost perfect. And to latch and unlatch there can’t be any pressure going up or weight going down, you have about a 1/4” to play with. I found it to be rougher when pulling than a normal fifth wheel hitch. It is very light though.

Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Ford Super Duty Prep Package - 18K
It preforms as described. For me it was difficult to get the base correctly set up so the hitch would easily remove out of the trunk bed then reinstall. I actually had to assemble the hitch in the trunk to get all of the parts to correctly align. My concern is what would happen if the hitch is rotated beyond the gears. The trailer can rotate beyond the limitation of the gears. The picture shows the hitch at full rotation but as you can see the trunk could still rotate farther without contact to the cab.
Item works exactly as described. I have a shortbed (6.5') Ford F350. Probably towed our 5th wheeler 5000+ miles with no problem. Then last year it happened! We were making a sharp turn in an uneven lot and POW, the 5vr hit the rear window and it exploded. After that I became gun shy about turning with the 5vr attached so I started looking at sliding hitches. A slider that you had to get out and unlatch to make work, didn't make sense to me. At what point do you get out? So, an auto slider hitch was purchased. Now when I get to a certain degree turn the auto-slide hitch moves back in its carriage and then auto-slides to the normal location once straightened out. Not gun shy anymore. Pro: Well packaged Well made Easy install It WORKS. Cons: Price Very heavy Some clunking after it straightens out from a turn

Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Underbed - 18,000 lbs
This was the best solution for my Dodge RAM 2500 towing my Alliance 340RL 38' 5th Wheel. My son helped me install the rails under the bed and now it is very easy to remove the hitch when I am not using it. It is very strong and I highly recommend this for anyone with a short bed truck.
Great hitch, easy to hook up and always remember that you get what you pay for!
