Demco Autoslide Compatibility With Standard Lippert Pin Box

Question:
Do I need a capture plate for a standard Lippert pin box to make my Demco 18K autoslide work?

Expert Reply:
The Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw - Above Bed - 18,000 lbs # DM8550034 does not need a capture plate for compatibility with a standard Lippert Pin box. The built in brackets of this hitch will stabilize your pin box so the king pin won't rotate in the hitch, so there is no need for a separate capture plate for standard, non-cushioned pin boxes. The head of the autoslide hitch will be the pivot for the trailer.
