## Overview

The Reese Towpower Sidewinder 5th Wheel Pin Box is engineered for short bed trucks, enabling up to 90-degree turns by relocating the trailer pivot point 22 inches rearward. With a 20,000 lbs towing capacity, universal wedge compatibility, and preassembled design, it offers a premium, durable solution backed by a limited lifetime warranty and tested to exceed SAE standards.

## Description

The REESE Towpower Sidewinder Fifth Wheel Pin Box is the ideal choice for those who want to tow with a short bed truck. This premium REESE 5th wheel hitch product is specifically designed to eliminate issues with turning and clearance when towing with a shorter pickup. The short bed fifth wheel hitch patented design allows towers to make up to 90-plus degree turns without having to leave the cab of the truck. The Sidewinder connects to your trailer and works by locking the trailer king pin to the fifth wheel hitch which moves the pivot point of the trailer a whopping 22 inches rearward to allow for increased turning clearance. The towing fifth wheel hitches system also tracks automatically, allowing for tighter turns when towing forward or moving in reverse, keeping the load centered over the axles, and eliminating the need for a fifth wheel slider system. The pivoting design of this elite pin box lets towers hook up to their fifth wheel hitch at nearly any angle while increasing stability and strength to support heavier loads. Like the REESE goose box and 5th Airborne, the REESE Sidewinder is tested to exceed all SAE standards, has 20,000 pounds capacity, and fits several Lippert trailer configurations when used with the included universal wedge. (Custom wedge kits sold separately.) The unit also ships preassembled to save on installation time and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, making it the ultimate short bed towing solution.

Review: Amazing design and product - This hitch is amazing. I wish I knew about them years ago. Changing the pivot point changes the turn radius a LOT. Very functional. Great build quality. Will take 2-3 people for installation since it is heavy. But overall installation is straight forward. Make sure to get the right locking block to fit your hitch.
Review: Perfect - So I have a 2021 ram 2500 with ram boxes. Crosswing 5th wheel hitch. This 5th wheel pin box workes perfectly. Little heavy but put it on tailgate with blocks under and dropped camper down to it. easy bolt up. Just make sure it will work on your king pin box at camper. Bought another for my sons camper and it will not work. So I'm stuck with it for now. No free returns. I know it will be a learning experience turning but I have high hopes.
