This has been interesting! My 5er had a 5AB/SW when I got it used and I had a hard time with hitching. I have lots of friends with TTs and Hensleys and the Hensley is more forgiving that the SW. I have a LB truck so I took the SW off and moved the 5AB back to the pin box mounting plates on the 5er. I definitely would have been doing some grinding and greasing to make it hook up easier. BTW, I took the SW arm off first and then the turret to make it easier and lighter. Mine had enough clearance in the bushings so the arm would turn fairly easily in the turret. Try some chain lube if yours won't pivot. Craig
