Today we're going to take a look at the replacement side plates for the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th-wheel trailer hitch to fit your Ford Super Duty's Factory Underbed Rail System. Now these parts here will replace the side plates that came standard with your Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th-wheel trailer hitch. They will fit the 18,000 pound hitch, which is part number DM8550024, and it will also fit the 21,000 pound hitch, part number DM8550038. Both of those hitches we do sell separately on our website. These parts here will let you install your hitch in the factory pucks of your Ford Super Duty Factory Underbed Rail System. These are a simple bolt-on installation to your Hijacker Autoslide Hitch Base and it gives you multiple rows of holes you can see here to let you adjust the correct hitch height.All these parts are a rust resistant black powder coat steel construction.
Comes with all the mounting hardware you need, all the handles you can see right here, and the safety pins are included. These parts are made in the USA, but basically these would bolt to the side of your Hijacker Autoslide 5th-wheel hitch and they're made to fit the factory underbed system. So all you have to do once these are installed, is you just pull this clip, remove the safety pin, rotate your handle out, do the same here, do the same on the other two on the other side, and that will allow you to drop it into the factory pucks on the factory Ford system. Once they drop into place, you just rotate that handle back, drop your pin through, take your safety clip and install it, and you're all ready to go. But that should do it for the review on the replacement side plates for the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th-wheel trailer hitch to fit the Ford Super Duty's Factory Underbed Rail System..

This system is the best because there is nothing left on the bed floor when removing the hitch.
The best customer service in the industry
The videos were helpful as were the fine people at etrailer.
Received item quickly. I recently ordered a 2020 Ford F250 Super Duty Platinum Diesel. When I take delivery in February I will install the AutoSlide 5th Wheel hitch. I will update this review after installation.
Worked as promised and shipping was right on time. Communication was excellent due to shipping to another address than the billing address. Excellent job Etrailer!!
Parts installed quickly and worked properly.
The plates were easy to install and work perfectly.
Changed trucks and this kit made the change over VERY easy! Literally took minutes to remove original side plates with the Ford Super Duty plates (designed for factory installed in-bed lock down pins). Torqued to spec, and had to make a minor adjustment to one of the alternate (included) supports, and the unit plugged right in to the bed of my new truck.
I contacted Demco and they recommended the part I needed for my 5th wheel hitch to mount into factory prep mounts. Etrailer had the part in stock and at a reasonable price and free shipping.
Great fit for the Ford Puck System. Easy to adjust and now the hitch is easy to put in/ get out and tows very solid.
It was pretty easy to mount to the auto -slide.
Thanks for all your help
Absolutely wonderful company to buy from. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase anything from etrailer. Great prices and fast shipping.
great service
etrailer is excellent. I mistakenly ordered the 5th wheel hitch with the wrong side plates. Montrel helped me get it correct.
It only took two days to get the new side plates.
Superior customer service
Fast an easy service
We are having a little trouble with two plates that came with the hitch. Not sure how or where to install them.
As always another great product at a great price offered by etrailer. Package arrived few days earlier than expected, parts fit perfectly installation was simple. This is why I always shop at etrailer!
Awesome business to buy from, fast service very polite. Product fit perfect. Highly recommend
good service, good price & fast shipping
Arrived in a few days. Fit as it should. Works well.
Awesome service great communication and helped me make sure I ordered the correct parts for my truck
The puck system is great and makes it easy to install and removal a breeze.
Having someone to actually talk with to verify that the part i was ordering was the exact fit for my truck year & model was great. Having the part in stock for quick shipping along with providing a tracking method for me to know when the part would arrive was great. Having a competitive price on the part was great. Overall a Priceless experience!
Thanks,
What I needed - fast
Excelent product!!!!
