Question:
I currently have a pro series 15k 5th wheel hitch but am want to upgrade to a 20k, What would my options be? I have a slider in the truck also. Looking for something that I do not have to replace rails. Is there any heads that can go on the pro series framelegs? I have read some of the QandA on your site and like the professional answers that is given. Answers that I would trust. Look forward to hearing from you, I pull a 40ft keystone, not a low profile camper, but way to much banging with my 15k hitch head.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can just purchase the Pro Series 20K Fifth Wheel Head Assembly, Head Support and Handle Kit, item # 30118, to go on the slider assembly, item # RP30048, that your 15k head assembly is attached to now.
The same Slider assembly is used on the Pro Series 15k, 16k and 20k head units.
If you want a smoother slider then you can use the Reese Round Tube Slider # RP50024.
