Best sliding hitch recommendation

I’ve used a Superglide for the last 7yrs and ~60k miles. Love it. Numerous times it’s automatically prevented me from punching out my rear window even with a “new rounded corner” 5er. Will be moving it to the 2022 F350 when I get it (ordered).

Agree with 4x4ord...Many of us Ford owners are using a non-sliding hitch in our 6.9 ft beds.

Get the B&W 3300 for Ford oem factory puck system. It is a great hitch, light wt, can be adjusted ahead/back, up/down, quiet/no rattle, user friendly (what's not to like).

It easily separates to 2 pieces, and fits the pucks nicely. Your wife will have it installed in just a few minutes!

I was under the impression I needed a sliding hitch when I upgraded to a FW so I bought the Superglide. What a pain in the rear. About every third or fourth time I had to remove the head from the mount to disconnect it from the pin.

I changed to a Reese manual slide. I realized with this hitch in the tow position I can maneuver over 90° without contacting the cab. I never needed a sliding hitch.

I have a 14K Superglide rusting away in the barn I need to get rid of.

My personal opinion is that a sliding hitch is unnecessary especially with the new fivers. The nose of the newer fifth wheels is designed to allow adequate clearance while towing with a 6.5 foot bed.... I like my B&W nonsliding Companion. If I had a manual slider I would never take the time to unpin and slide it. If you feel you need a sliding hitch I would recommend an automatic slider such as the Superglide by Pullrite.
