Removing 5th wheel Hitch from pick up bed
Any good ideas on how to easily pull the hitch out of the truck bed so I can use truck for other activity? I need to temporarily remove my Reese 16K tube slider. I know to release it from the rails...

I'm 67 and I can still do a lot of things the hard way, but choose not to. :)
It isn't hard for me, and I can do it any where, not just where the hoist is.
I can have it in in or out less than 5 minutes. Part of being able to leave work and an hour and fifteen minutes later being leaving the storage with the 5er for a trip! That was with a hitch swap and airing up the rear tires.
OK...:)
Since the RV is my "hoist", I can do it anywhere too.
And since I keep the trailer at my house and am retired, I can hitch up and go while you're exiting the parking lot!
Note: the above is intended in good fun, not as a put-down.
