Reese Revolution

We just got a 2017 Jayco Eagle HT 28.5 with a reese revolution. I have a Pullrite Super 5th hitch. does anone know if i have to make modifications or are they compatible?
  • They will work together IF you lock out the Revolution pin. There should be two bolts that install through the pivot plate on the Revolution pin box.That makes it work just like a regular pin box.
  • You should have a manual for that Reese Pin Box in ALL that literature with that new trailer

    If Not......Click Here

    Lock out pivot bolts are 3/4" X 10 5/8"


    Either a sliding hitch OR the pivoting pin box NOT both.

    SO lock out the pivot feature on that Reese Revolution Pin Box OR replace sliding hitch with a fixed hitch.
    Locking out is CHEAP and easy to do.

    OP says his hitch is a "Super" which is not the same as the Superglide. If that is the case, then he might simply need the correct wedge for his hitch to get the best performance out of the Revolution.

    Well you're right......THAT would make a big difference.

    OP needs to contact Reese and inquire

  • yes it is not a glide but stationary hitch. the dealer did put a wedge on but I'm wondering if its the right one. I'll call tomorrow. The revolution did work great with the short bed but a PITA to get locked.
  • ok straightened that out. The custom wedge for the revolution with a pullrite nonsliding hitch is SWW-09. Ordered it from E-Trailer for $50 and will recieve it in a few days.
