Which Demco SL Fifth Wheel Bracket Kit Fits 2017 Ford F-250 Short Bed
Published 06/29/2026
Question:
I purchased a 2017 f 250 with the 6.5 ft bed. I have a 2011 ram 2500 with a 6.5 ft bed that I have a demco sl series hijacker hitch in. I purchased the bracket kit for the f250 pn 8553017. Was I supposed to order another kit for the SL series base rails? Thanks

Hey Craig, the Demco SL rail kit part # DM8553017 that you referenced is the correct Demco SL rail kit for your 2017 Ford F-250 short bed. I confirmed this with Demco so this would be the correct kit to use. Did you order the rail kit from us?
