5th Wheel Hitch for Sidewinder Pin Box On Jayco Eagle 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
Hi, I am looking to get a Jayco Eagle 32BHQS Fifth Camper for a 2017 GMC Sierra 3500 Crew Cab with the 6.5 bed. I would rather not get a sliding hitch. Is there a Reese Airborne Sidewinder that would work with this fifth wheel? If so, which one is it and what fifth wheel hitch would you recommend to go with it preferably one that comes off in two pieces so I can remove it from the truck myself? Thanks

You may be able to purchase the trailer with a Revolution king pin since you're getting it brand new. If not, let me know the model number of the pin box that's on it when you get the trailer and I'll recommend the correct Sidewinder for you.
The hitch I recommend is the Reese # RP30928 rated up to 20,000 pounds. The head can be removed to take the hitch in and out of your truck if you'd like. To install the M5 in your 2017 GMC Sierra 3500 use the Custom Install Bracket Kit # RP50066-58. This kit includes the brackets and rails.
If you'd also like to install a 7-way trailer connector in your truck's bed use # 50-97-410
