Question:

We have Kwik slide 30049 15,000 slider. Will this work for us? Also does this head side to side and front to back? More info on pivoting side to side and back to front. Will this replace my 30049 hitch head?

Expert Reply:

Yes, the Replacement 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch Head, item # 30047A, will work on the Kwik Slide Fifth Wheel Slider, item # 30048, that came with the # 30049 15K hitch.

The Replacement 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch Head - Draw-Tite and Reese, item # 30047A does tilt front to back and side to side.

If you are looking to upgrade the features or capacity of your hitch you could also use the Reese 18K Select Plus Fifth Wheel Head Kit, item # 58292, along with the Reese Replacement Head Support for Select Plus Series Fifth Wheel Hitches, item # 58293. These parts will work along with your Kwik Slide and provide 18,000 pounds of capacity along with increased 4-way pivot and a wide funnel for ease of hookup. I have included a video review of the Reese 18K Select Plus Fifth Wheel Hitch for you to check out.
