Question:
Will the Reese Sidewinder pin box work with the Andersen Ultimate hitch? 2015 - Ford - F-350 Super Duty
asked by: Wayne
Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but the Reese Sidewinder king pin like part # RP34FR is not compatible with the Andersen Ultimate Hitch like part # AM3200 because the Sidewinders are not compatible with adapters or hitches that only have one center point of attachment. The Sidewinder puts too much torque on adapters and requires a fixed hitch with 4 points of contact.
If your 2015 Ford F-350 Super Duty has an OEM prep package I recommend Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Super Duty Towing Prep Package part # RP30921 to use with the Sidewinder because of it's premium cushioned single hook jaw that will hold the king pin tighter so you will not experience as much chucking and rattling like with a standard jaw.
If your truck does not have the prep package I recommend the same Reese M5 hitch but with the underbed installation kit part # RP30126.
