Can a Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier Be Used At the Same time as a 5th Wheel?

Question:
Is it possible to use a hitch mounted mounted cargo carrier on my truck with my fifth wheel connected if I am using a super glide fifth wheel hitch that causes my king pin to slide back when I make a turn?

As long as you have room yses you can absolutely use a hitch mounted cargo carrier like the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches # e98874 with your 5th wheel connected.
These generally sit pretty low so I don't think you'd run into any clearance issues front to back, but since this is pretty wide at 60" you may run into lateral clearance issues. Worse case scenario, you can put this cargo carrier on the back of your 5th wheel and you'd be good to go.
