How big a deal is the little clunk? In my van and in my past SUV every time the hitch rattles in the receiver I can hear it...so a little clunk is not a problem for me when I go to a fifth wheel.
Probably will end up with a B&W but I really like the way the Reese dual jaw hitch is designed. The slide bar hitches are appealing due to their security...if the bar is crossing the king pin it's locked in! But the reports say they rattle a bit.
Thanks!

Last 5th wheel hitch was a old RBW slide bar ..big heavy hunk of metal that served me well for many years.
Then in 2006 bought new truck and new 5vr.
Bought a Husky 16K 4-way articulating head with wrap-around jaw
Used it to tow my 14K 5vr every week or so FT travel for 7 yrs.
Never had an issue with hitching/unhitching in many off angle/off camber/off level situations.
Hooked up......visual check....GO!
I see I was not the only one to have an old RBW slide bar. It was a reliable hitch, served me well too. It did clunk a little on start/stop, more so after bar wear. It was obvious if you were hitched, and bar locked.
