BW 3300 with Ford 6.5 box
Anyone have this set up? Truck has the pucks. Not to excited about buying a slider. Also considering the Anderson.

Assuming you can hit the cab with all conventional non-slider hitches, your best shot at avoiding a slider is likely the Andersen. The hitch, itself, gives you 5" of setback from the cab. Then, add about 4" to that if you can get away with the standard install of the kingpin adapter. Assuming your pinbox has clearance from the bedrails and tailgate in that position (as mine does), you gain a healthy 9" in total.
I had a Superglide in my previous truck and I loved how I never had to worry about hitting the cab. What I didn't love was getting the hitch in and out of the truck and its robbing me of 250lbs of payload. It literally takes me 15 minutes to install my Andersen (all 38lbs of it) and I take my time. My truck has a slightly longer bed (6'10") and I have miles of clearance to the cab in tight turns.
