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...

Does anyone just crank it up to the ceiling and leave it?
I do that but I don't leave it hanging from the winch. I put a hatch in the ceiling and mounted the winch to the main beam. I open the hatch, hoist the hitch from the truck into the overhead through the hatch, put two 2x4s across the rafters, lower it onto the 2x4s so the weight is not held by the winch and then close the hatch. It takes longer to type it than it does to store the hitch.
