Question:
Hi, I am looking at the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch with Demco Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails Part Numbers: DM8550040,DM8552028-71 for use with my 2022 F-150 4X2 SUPERCREW / 5.0 / 145 wheelbase with 5.5 bed. The trailer king pin is a LCI Road Armor 2022433400. Will I also need Demco Autoslide Capture Plates Item # DM6171? I can send pictures of the pin if needed. Also, what air bags would you recommend for the 2022 F150 using this rail kit? Thank you

Expert Reply:
Yes, you are going to also need the Demco Autoslide Capture Plates for Trailair Rota-Flex Pin Boxes # DM6171 when using the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550040 with your Road Armor pin box.
For a suspension enhancement I recommend checking out the SumoSprings Rebel Custom Helper Springs # SSR-129-47-2. These springs do not require air, has 5,000 lb of load leveling capacity, an easy bolt on install, and is made proudly in the USA.
