Question:
Do you offer an auto slide fifth wheel hitch, 20k or higher rating, for use with my 2018 ram hockey puck system?
asked by: Andrew
Expert Reply:
Yes, we do offer an autoslider that has the capacity you are looking for that will fit in your 2018 Ram 2500's puck system. It is the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider item # DM8550035. This 5th wheel hitch has a 21,000 lbs capacity. This hitch slides automatically as you drive to give you 14" of additional clearance for tight turns.
You will also need the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Ram OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package - 25,000 lbs item # DM6099. This is the base the autoslider sits in that attaches to your pucks. I have linked an installation video.
Don't forget your lube plate. The Lube Plate for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches - 10" Diameter item # RP83002 will prevent scratches on your fifth-wheel's skid plate and ease trailer hookup.
