Reese Sidewinder Pinbox

I use a sidewinder with B&W rvk3600 and it works great. Just wish they made a 19k air model

I have the Revolution paired up with a Husky Hitch and really like the setup and find far superior to towing a travel trailer before this setup. No sway, buffering or being pushed around.

The only odd thing is that my trailer sits a little more to one side or the other, depending on which way you turned last. Looking in the mirror I can see that the trailer may follow along a little more on the right or left side. Guess it would be easier to say that it doesn't always return to dead center.

A bit temperamental at times hitching or un-hitching, seemed to be due to binding due to the angle not quite right.

Hard to explain but the "plates"(construction) of my hitch jutted out.
Had them evened out and got rid of most of the problem.

Tracks fine and I think it is easier to back up.

For most of 3 years, I pulled the trailer in my signature with the 16k Sidewinder when I owned a 1/2-ton Silverado. Tracked fine, I highly recommend for short beds to save the cab of your truck. A bit temperamental at times hitching or un-hitching, seemed to be due to binding due to the angle not quite right. But that aside, doesn't carry the cost or weight penalty of the Pullright Superglide and unlike manual sliders, you never have to remember to engage it.

With a long-bed now, I have removed the wedge and pinned the arm to allow it to function like a conventional pinbox. And the hitch itself? A Reese Titan 16. Zero problems there.

Hope this helps!

I have the Reese revolution (same as sidewinder) and tow with a 2500 short bed GMC. we just made our 2nd trip from NH to FLA and love the way it handles and tows... no complaints there. The problem I have is un-hitching if the truck is tilted a little to the side from the trailer. no help from Reese so I would not recommend towing with a Reese hitch.
