Helpful Expert Reply:
Hands-down I'd recommend a Revolution pin box with a fixed hitch over a Pullrite slider hitch. Fixed hitches weigh less (easier to install/remove, especially over a Pullrite which is a monstrosity!), have less moving parts, and don't require as much maintenance. Plus the Revolution not only helps with tight turns it also makes reversing in general easier and the trailer tracks better behind the vehicle going forward around tight turns.
Reese Revolution pin boxes are the same thing as the Sidewinders. I attached a help article for more info on them to this page as well.
