Parts Needed To Use Demco Hijacker With OEM Prep Package On 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD
Question:
I currently have the Demco undermount kit DM8551010 on my 2017 GMC 2500 HD and looking to upgrading to a 2021 Chevy 2500 HD that has the factory pucks. What do I need to fit my Demco Autoslide 5th wheel into the 2021 with the pucks?

Congratulations on the new truck!
To change your Demco Hijacker Autoslide # DM8550022 that was made for the Underbed Rail and Installation Kit # DM8551010 on your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 HD to work with your new 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD W/ OEM Prep Package you will need to change the side plates and use a rail adapter.
The correct parts are Replacement Side Plates for Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # DM6003 and Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter for Chevy/GMC OEM 5th Wheel Towing Prep Package # DM6333.
Currently there is not a side plate made to attach directly to your OEM Prep Package which is why you will need the rail adapter.
I included a video for all of the parts mentioned for you to take a look at.
