Does Pullrite Superglide 5th Wheel Hitch Slide Automatically When Backing Up As Well
Updated 08/07/2025 | Published 07/09/2025
Question:
My question is if you have to backup the fifth wheel up an incline to turn around or a site does the hitch still rotate and slide back or stay in the forward position

Hey Dan, any time your truck is turning relative to your trailer the slider mechanism will be activated and it will move back. There isn't a way to deactivate that or prevent that from happening.

Hey Dan, how did the slider mechanism work for you when backing up your fifth wheel on an incline? I'm curious to know if it met your needs, as it could help others in similar situations.
