• Sidewinder Wedge Recommendation for a Pullrite Fifth Wheel Hitch
  All you need is the Pullrite Sidewinder Wedge part # SWW-09 so that you can use your Pullrite hitch with the Sidewinder you are considering buying. Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have know in order to pick out the correct one. There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box of the trailer that will list the pin box number that is on the trailer. Once you figure out which pin box you have you can check the FAQ I attached that...

• Recommended Reese Sidewinder/Revolution Wedge for PullRite 5th Wheel Hitch
  The Reese Revolution and the Reese Sidewinder are the same product. For the OEM market, Reese gave it the Revolution name, and for the aftermarket, it's called the Sidewinder. Two different names for the same item. For your PullRite fifth wheel hitch, the # SWW-09 would be the correct wedge for your Reese Revolution. Reese tells me that they developed a specific wedge for the PullRite because the universal wedge didn't work all that well hitch the hitch. If you click the provided link,...

• Can a Sidewinder Pin Box be Used with a Pullrite 1300 Ford Hitch Prep Fifth Wheel Hitch
  The Pullrite 1300 hitch you have is a stationary hitch so it would work just fine with a Sidewinder 5th Airborne pin box as long as you use the correct wedge, part # SWW-09. Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have now in order to pick out the correct one. There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box of the trailer that will list the pin box number that is on the trailer. Once you figure out which pin box you have you can check...

• Is Wedge Required When Using Reese Revolution Pin Box With Husky Fifth Wheel Hitch
  You will definitely want to use a wedge when towing because the wedge locks the king pin in place and moves the pivot point back 22 inches allowing you to make turns with the fifth wheel. If your Husky 15K hitch in the truck has dual jaws, the universal wedge that came with the Revolution should work for you. If you cannot lock the jaw on your fifth wheel hitch with the universal wedge that came with your Revolution, my contact at Reese said the wedge that will work is part # SWW-04....

• Compatibility of a Reese Revolution Pin Box With a SuperGlide 5th Wheel Hitch
  I spoke with my contact for Reese and he said it is not recommended to use your Reese Revolution pin box with your SuperGlide. It is possible to lockout the turret of your pin box and remove the wedge allowing the pin box to rotate at the hitch, however, if the sidewinder sits below the top of your bed rails, then the pin box can hit and damage your truck bed while sliding or pivoting. You will also have to attach a capture plate to your pin box to allow the pin box to rotate at the hitch....

• How to Tow a Fifth Wheel Trailer with a 2013 Toyota Tundra Crew Max Cab
  The 2013 Toyota Tundra with a crew cab or CrewMax cab only came with a 5-1/2 foot bed. The only way you are going to be able to get enough clearance to make tight turns with a truck that has that short of a bed is with a Sidewinder pin box. Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have know in order to pick out the correct one. There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box of the trailer that will list the pin box number that is on...

  5th Airborne Sidewinder # RP61412 is a fit for a trailer with a factory Lippert 1716 pin box! The use of a Sidewinder can put additional stress on the trailer frame.

• 5th Wheel Trailer with Revolution Pin Box Almost Hits Cab on 2016 Ford F-150 with 5-1/2 Foot Bed
  First, if using a Revolution pin box with a slider hitch the hitch will need to stay locked in the towing position at all times. Otherwise it could but substantial stress behind the rear axle of the 2016 Ford F-150. Second, the Revolution pin box may have the turret locked out (if there are 2 bolts on the bottom of the arm going up into the turret then this is the case) and that will not allow the trailer to pivot at the turret; which could be what is causing the problem. The Revolution...

• Adapting Reese Revolution Pin Box and PullRite SuperGlide 5th Wheel Hitch
  Generally speaking, it is not recommended to use a Revolution or Sidewinder pin box with any type of sliding 5th wheel hitch. The risk is that these two different pivot points could result in loss of control of the trailer and/or damage to the truck or trailer. I cannot be sure of exactly what effects your dealer's alternations will have, but we do offer a 5th wheel wedge designed specifically for use with PullRite hitches, part # SWW-09. This custom-fit wedge will prevent the king pin...

• Is Pullrite Sidewinder Wedge # SWW-09 Compatible with Pullrite SuperGlide 2700 Hitch
  The 5th Airborne Custom Wedge # SWW-09 is not designed to be used with your Pullrite SuperGlide 2700 (or any automatic sliding 5th wheel hitch), so I cannot recommend using it instead of a capture plate. A Pullrite Quick Capture Plate is a required component of your SuperGlide hitch system, and from what I understand, it also has a Capture Wedge integrated into the plate, so that's what you'd need to use. Additionally, Sidewinders cannot be used with the Pullrite SuperGlide hitch. This...

• Hitch Recommendation for a 2014 Ford F250 with Hitch Prep for use with a Reese Revolution
  It sounds like you have the Ford Hitch Prep package in your 2014 Ford F-250 and that you also have a short bed truck based on your slider hitch concerns. Using a Reese Revolution would be the absolute best option you have since it would mean that you do not need a slider hitch and you would have the clearance to make tight turns. Since you have the underbed rail kit I would recommend an Elite hitch since those are designed to work with your rail kit and can work with Reese Revolutions...

• Will Reese 5th Wheel Install Kit for 2008 F-250 Also Fit 2015 F-250 to Use Reese Elite Series Hitch
  The Reese Elite under-bed 5th wheel rail kit that fits your 2008 F-250 is part # RP30073. The correct under-bed kit that fits your 2015 Ford F-250 Super Duty is part # RP30126. The 2008 and 2015 model years of the F-250 are parts of different generations of the truck (11th and 13th) and so they require a different rail kit.

• Recommended 5th Wheel Hitch For 2016 Ram 2500 With Revolution Pin Box On Trailer
  For your 2016 Ram 2500 6 foot bed with factory rail kit, because you are using a Revolution Pin box I recommend the Curt Q24 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ram Towing Prep Package - Dual Jaw - 24,000 lbs # C16545-16021. This 5th wheel hitch will fit perfectly in your factory rail kit and will give you the strength you need. I've attached a video for you reviewing this hitch.

• Replacement Wedge for Reese Revolution/Sidewinder Rotating 5th Wheel Pin Box
  If the wedge on the Revolution is showing wear, it's definitely a good idea to replace it, as it could allow some side to side movement of the pin box at the king pin which is undesirable. This usually occurs when a universal wedge is used. They fit fairly well, but because they don't completely conform to the hitch funnel in the skid plate, wear can occur over time. The wedges are hitch specific, the exact wedge needed will be determined by the 5th wheel hitch you're using. For Curt...

• Trailer Hitch Option for 2012 Ram 1500 with 5-1/2ft Bed and 5th Wheel with Reese Revolution Pin Box
  Since your fifth wheel trailer has a Reese Revolution pin box, you will want a fixed(standard) fifth wheel hitch. The Revolution pin box will offer the necessary turning clearance and it is not recommend to use a sliding fifth wheel hitch with a Revolution pin box. One fifth wheel hitch that I recommend looking at is the Reese M5 Fifth Wheel Hitch, # RP30928. This hitch has the premium single hook jaw and and a wide head for ultimate hitch to pin box contact and stability. This hitch...

• 5th Wheel Hitch/Install Kit for 2008 Toyota Tundra w/5-1/2 Foot Bed, Trailer w/Revolution Pin Box
  For your 2008 Toyota Tundra with 5-1/2 foot bed you can use the semi-custom installation kit # RP30035-309. I have included a link to the installation instructions to the right. Then all you need is a hitch. Since the trailer weighs only 7,500 pounds you can use a 16K hitch such as # RP30047, which will provide you with a much more secure dual jaw connection. I have linked video reviews of both hitches for you. Pro Series is also made by Reese. As to where you can get these parts, well...

• Replacement 5th Airborne Coupler And Wedge For Pullrite Fifth Wheel Hitch
  The 5th Airborne coupler you can use to replace your Lippert 1621, is part # 5AB-E1621-610. This king pin helps reduce shock and relieves stress on the coach frame. I have attached a link to an installation video for this coupler you can check out.
