Expert Reply:
The overall weight of the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 18k # DM8550034 is 273 lbs. Since the Demco 5th Wheel Lifting Bracket # DM6100 has a capacity of 500 lbs it would easily be able to lift the hitch.
I attached a review video for the hitch and the lifting pin for you to check out as well.
