Fit and Compatibility of Reese Sidewinder on Leland 7910 and Lil Rocker on a 2014 Chevy Silverado

Question

Question:

I have a 2014 Silverado 1500 crew cab 6 ft bed. I believe I need a Reese Sidewinder ST400-SW16 for Leland Af-7910 and have a question about the 5th wheel hitch. Will this Sidewinder work with RBW Lil Rocker 15K. If it will work, I will need the correct wedge kit and rail kit. Help please. Thank you

Don't worry, I can help you. Yes, the Reese Sidewinder # ST400-5AS16K is a confirmed fit for your Leland 7910 pin box.

I spoke with my contact at Reese and he stated that you can use the RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch with a Revolution/Sidewinder pin box on your trailer. Remember that on any type of slider hitch it must remain in the towing and locked position and never slid back when using a Revolution/Sidewinder.

The correct wedge for your RBW Lil Rocker is # SWW-07. The RBW Lil Rocker 5th wheel hitch fits in industry standard above the bed rails.

I have linked all the above mentioned products to this page for your convenience.
