Will the B and W 3370 slider work with the trail air turning point can’t it be locked up at the hitch and turn back at the 5th wheel front with that weg lock.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can use the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 with an extended pin box so long as you lock it out and do not use the sliding feature. This will be fine if you already have this hitch although if you are looking for a new hitch it is recommended to use a fixed 5th wheel such as the B&W Patriot # BWRVK3255 to maximize stability.
No matter which way you go you are going to want to use the Custom Wedge for B&W Fifth Wheels # SWW-06. I have added links to video reviews of each of these parts for you to check out as well.
