I'm not super sure what you're looking for but it sounds like you're describing the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider - Single Jaw # DM8550038.
This hitch has an automatic slider that will slide toward the tailgate when making a turn and back to the cab when you come out of your turn, so there is no getting out of the truck and sliding your hitch back for clearance. Since this hitch operates the same going forward as it does going backwards, you can also reverse.
Also, this hitch has a 21K weight capacity, is made in the USA, and will simply drop into your Ford OEM pucks, if you don't have OEM pucks then you'll need # DM8550037 with the installation rails # DM8551009 instead.
