Will The Sidewinder Wedge C85DR Work With The Curt CrossWing # C23DR On a Pivoting Pin Box?

Question:

I have the C32DR with the wedge C85DR for working with a Reese sidewinder. Now the question is what mechanism blocks the Crosswing from going to turn as it is not blocked in the underbed rails.

With the Curt CrossWing # C32DR attaching to your truck by the gooseneck ball you should not use the Sidewinder Wedge # C85DR. You should only use a pivoting pin box on a 5th wheel hitch with multiple mounting points. Hitches with a single attachment point are not strong enough to resist the pivoting force place on the hitch by the trailer king pin with a pivoting pin box.
