I really like the Demco Hijacker Autoslide, part # DM8550035. The hitch has a high quality jaw that holds the king pin very tightly, avoiding much of the chucking and rattling. The # DM8550035 has a 21K capacity, and will slide rearward automatically during sharp turns to provide 14 inches of clearance between the front of the fifth wheel and the rear of the truck cab. No more exiting the truck to release the slider. The # DM8552026-71 install brackets/frame rails are recommended.
If you don't already have a 7-way installed in the truck bed, you can install one using part # 41157. If you click the provided link, you can see a video of the wiring harness being installed.
