Question:

where i park my fifth wheel camper the camper is level side to side with leveling blocks. but my truck is lening to the right whith my driveway. i have to use aroung 8inch under my right tire to get truck level enough to hookup or my camper. my question is . is there a pin box that will allow my piviting to the left and right to make it easier or a hitch that will pivoit more that a standard hitch, ther is about and 1inch or maybe a lil more at my pin box and my hitch with out lifting my right side of my truck.

The more level you can get your truck and trailer when hitching up the easier of a time you'll have. That said, the fifth wheel hitch that allows the most side to side movement is the Curt Q20 part # C16130 which has a spherical axial bearing that allows the head to pivot more than other options. It's hard to say if it would be enough to allow your connection to happen easily but it's the best option around.

I attached a review video for this hitch for you to check out as well.
