I don't have any info on the Andersen or the Pullrite but there is a new third option when it comes to this piramid "lightweight" fifth wheel hitch.
That is the Demco Recon
Here is the product page on eTrailer.com
I like that it mounts to industry standard rails so no bed deflection. I also like that it uses a conventional hitch head. Demco hitch heads are single jaw and locking bar in design and are very secure. 21k lb rating and you can pick one up for about $500.00 ish. It breaks down into two pieces so it's still easy to manage.
If I were shopping for one of these light weight hitches I would really consider one of these Demco Recons.
Thanks!
