I got a Hijacker Ultra 16K sliding bar hitch in 1997 and used it in two trucks with two different trailers. It was a great hitch and there was never a question on it being latched.
This fall we got a new SB RAM and I looked at many manual sliders. Our son warehouses Curt hitches and I could have gotten a good deal on one. I looked at Demco/Hijacker and several others.
In the end I got a Demco 6099 picture frame and a B&W RVK3270 manual slider. I like the way the jaws work on it, in the fact that if the handle cycles closed, it is hitch correctly.
I would have converted the Hijacker head to their slider base, however mine was a earlier model that was not compatible to do that.
Hijacker and B&W may be the last two North American hitches. In talking to Curt they told me that the receiver hitches are still made state side, and the 5th wheel hitches are now off shored. Chris
