Can Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch Fit 2011 F-250 With B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch  

Updated 06/27/2023 | Published 06/26/2023



Question:

Hi, I’m looking for the best rail solution. I currently have a 2011 F250 shortbed without the factory 4 holes, it currently has a BW gooseneck underbed/flush Mount installed. I also have a Demco 5th wheel, single jaw with auto slide. Looking for rail options. Thanks

I have two options for you, but you won't be able to use your Demco Autoslide with the B&W Underbed Installation Kit. You can't mount additional rails with the B&W hitch installed, and you can't use an adapter since it is unable to withstand the torque from the autoslide.

The first option is to sell the Demco and get a B&W Companion # BWRVK3400-5W. The other option is to remove the B&W underbed hitch and install new rails to work with your Demco. You can choose above or below bed rails based on the hitch you have. If you have the Demco Autoslide like # DM8550022 you need the Underbed Rail and Installation Kit # DM8551000. If you have one like the # DM8550034 you need the Demco Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails # DM8552000-71.
