Andersen Ultimate Hitch In 6 5 Foot Bed

I need to go buy a new hitch and i wondered if anyone pulling a reflection 5th wheel with a chevy 6 5 bed has needed a slider hitch.

Andersen ultimate hitch in 6 5 foot bed. Hi i purchased my andersen ultimate hitch in 2016. We are sometimes asked if the andersen ultimate connection will work in a short bed truck. For anyone who frequently removes their hitch i believe this is the best option. So if you have a short bed truck the ultimate 5th wheel connection still has you covered.

In fact it is the best fifth wheel hitch on the market. The ultimate 5th wheel connection is the lightest and most affordable way to connect your 5th wheel trailer to your tow vehicle. The best 5th wheel trailer hitch andersen hitches is proud to offer the future of 5th wheel trailer hitches. I run andersen on my 6 5 bed.

Trying to make a 90 turn in a shortbed truck. 2014 grand design reflection. We have 2 versions available and both are fifth wheel hitches for short bed trucks or long bed. The andersen ultimate 5th wheel connection trades some maneuverability for the light weight and compact design.

Gvwr and hitch weight appear well within specifications. I am very diligent on tightening procedures with a torque wrench at 50 lbs of torque as written on the hitch itself. Andersen hitches has the best solution to towin. I have been in tight campgrounds and even made a u turn while keeping my rear window intact.

The only issue i have is that the hitch rotates in the bed of truck a bit especially on rough roads. The ultimate 5th wheel connection gives you an incredibly smooth and quiet ride unrivaled by any other 5th wheel hitch on the market today. I am interested in an andersen ultimate hitch for the reasons of weight and ease of removal but have not bought the hitch yet so i can still go another direction such as a companion slider. Now the pin is fwd and ball aft and i can almost get 90 degrees before my cap almost touches the rear window.

Originally with ball forward and pin aft in the adapter my pinbox would potentially hit the bedsides during a sharp turn. I pull a 30 ft 5 th wheel i absolutely love the hitch especially the ease of installation and removal. Gvwr and hitch weight appear well within specifications.
