Hi, All! I'm in the process of selling my travel tailer and moving to a fifth-wheel. wife and I really fell for the new Jayco North Point 377RLBH at last weekend's Hershey Show.
I will be the FIRST to admit that I know very little about 5'er hitch systems. I've had several folks, including the reps for the MOR/ryde pin system recommend the Pullrite Superglide, as it is "automatic", and doesn't require getting out to release. (I have a 6' bed in my RAM, and I don't want to bang into the cab when backing the trailer into tight spots.) I have the in-bed "puck" system on the RAM, so I will need to mount the hitch on a picture frame, either Reese or Pullrite.
So my question is, do I want the Pullrite Superglide auto slider which is only single pivot? Or am I better off with a double pivot hitch? (and if so, what would you recommend?)
Thank you for any help!
Love my PullRite SuperGlide. had it since 2002. Pulling a 02 Cougar. no issues and no worries. It does it's job backwards or forwards. When you look at your 5er your purchasing, make sure the nose can go 90 degrees without any issues. Some advertise no slider hitch is needed, as long as you don't turn past X degrees from center. As long as you stay in that range you'll be ok.
