asked by: Brad S
Helpful Expert Reply:
While there is a way to use the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # DM8550034 with a Turning Point pin box, it will basically turn your Turning Point pin box into just a standard pin box.
Using them both together would create too many moving parts, so you would need to lock out the Turning Point Pin Box. This will make the pin box pivot at the hitch, causing you to lose the clearance to the cab the Turning Point is designed to give you.
I have attached a photo to show you had to lock out the Turning Point pin box.
