Swaping out a hitch question
Currently I have a Pullrite 4400 18K fifth wheel hitch. I would like to swap it out for a B&W Patriot 18K sliding hitch. Question, will the rails I have now in the bed of my truck fit the Patriot hit...

Why would want to trade out a auto-slide hitch for one that is a manual slide? Just wondering.

Once the Pullrite is hitched it is a great hitch. Its the hitching and unhitching that is the problem. I have been in situations where I could not hookup because the camper was not level. I have been in situations where I could not unhook because it was on an incline. Whenever I go to some place I haven't been before I worry before I get there if I will have problems unhooking or getting hooked back up It takes all the joy out of going somewhere. Before releasing the camper you have to back into the hitch to take the pressure off the jaws of the hitch and then you can release the jaws. Sometimes if you are at an angle it won't release. I have had the hitch for over a year and have had enough of its temple mental nature so I am going back to what is simple and straight forward. If you would like to buy this hitch I will be glad to sell it to you.
