Superglide Hitch / Capture Plate Question
Can you temporarily use the Superglide slider hitch to tow a 5er without the capture plate installed on the pin box? Would only be needed to tow a 5er about 50 miles.

You can tow without a capture plate if you stop the sliding action of the Superglide hitch.
This is what I use on my 16K Superglide.
Slide Stop is placed between turntable ways.
Tightened in and jam nutted.
With Slide Stop installed towing without capture plate can be done.
Sharp turns must be avoided so as not to take out rear window of tow vehicle!

This is the solution..... As long as you STOP the head from sliding, it is perfectly fine to tow like that... I made up something similar to the poster above, but with minor differences.... Now I have a Long Bed and new B&W and don't have to worry about that anymore !
