Reese Sidewinder Fifth Wheel Pin Box - 20,000 lbs - 69220

The Reese Sidewinder pin box is the ideal choice for those who want to tow with a short bed truck. This premium product is specifically designed to eliminate issues with turning and clearance when towing with a shorter pickup. Its patented design allows towers to make up to 90-plus deg. turns without having to leave the cab of the truck. The Sidewinder connects to your trailer and works by locking the trailer king pin to the fifth wheel hitch which moves the pivot point of the trailer a whopping 22" rearward to allow for increased turning clearance. The system also tracks automatically, allowing for tighter turns when towing forward or moving in reverse, keeping the load centered over the axles, and eliminating the need for a fifth wheel slider system. The pivoting design of this elite pin box lets towers hook up to their fifth wheel hitch at nearly any angle while increasing stability and strength to support heavier loads. Like the Reese goosebox and 5th Airborne, the Reese Sidewinder is tested to exceed all SAE standards, has 20,000 lbs capacity, and fits several Lippert trailer configurations when used with the included universal wedge.

Features:

• Premium pin box with a sleek design. The Sidewinder eliminates turning and clearance issues, allowing short bed pickup trucks to automatically make up to 90-plus deg. turns without anyone having to leave the cab
• Included wedge fits all Reese fifth wheel hitches. Custom wedge kits are also available (sold separately) to fit most other branded fifth-wheel hitches
• While the Sidewinder can be used with most truck and trailer combinations, not all will allow 90 deg. turns. Trailers with a wider wing set may also require a spacer kit for installation (sold separately)
