Description

Tow your fifth wheel with confidence using the Demco 8550035 Hijacker Autoslide® 21K Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitch. This brand new premium automatic sliding hitch eliminates the need to manually release a slide mechanism before making tight turns. Simply hitch up and drive—the Autoslide® automatically moves rearward during turns to provide additional cab clearance, making maneuvering in campgrounds, parking lots, and other confined spaces easier and safer.

Rated for 21,000 pounds of gross trailer weight and 5,250 pounds of pin weight, this heavy-duty hitch features Demco's wrap-around jaw with locking bar for a secure connection and smoother towing experience. The rack-and-pinion automatic slide system provides up to 14 inches of travel, while the 4-way pivoting head improves coupling on uneven terrain.

Designed for above-bed mounting, the hitch offers three vertical height adjustments to help level the truck and trailer. Owners of compatible Demco Hijacker Ultra Series manual or stationary hitches can upgrade to the Autoslide® without changing their existing Ultra mounting system.
