Will Buyers Products King Pin Work with Superglide Fifth Wheel Hitch

Question

Question:

I have a question re your Buyers Products 2 Forged SAE Trailer King Pin with 1/2 Bolster Plate - Bolt On 337BKPT809B. Will it connect to a Superglide Hitch? I do not plan to tow with the hitch and king pin. The hitch was given to me and I plan to attach the shore-end of my boat dock gangway to it using the king pin. My plan is to rotate my boat dock in toward shore to avoid trees and other debris that impact it when the river floods. Thank you, Joe

I checked with Lippert Components and the Lippert Electric Landing Gear Set #LC333964 and the bolt that comes with the bracket needs to be torqued to 10-18 ft-lbs. You do need to be careful not to get it too tight because you could actually bend the…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
