Does Curt Crosswing Fifth Wheel Hitch Provide Additional Tailgate Clearance  

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your photos - those really help! I was able to confirm with Lippert that you have a 1621 pin box number which means you need the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box #GY58FR. For safety…

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…

The Gen-Y Hitch 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box part #GY58GR is primarily designed for long bed trucks. It's no different than a standard fifth wheel pin box in regards to the size. If you were using a fixed hitch and standard pin box before with…

The OEM prep package consists of 4 "pucks" in the bed of the truck that will allow you to drop in puck style hitches for easy installation and removal, that gives you a completely clear bed when not in use. The B&W Companion OEM 5th…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

If you take a look at the linked diagram you can see the minimum recommended clearance distances between truck and trailer for 5th wheel towing. It is recommended to have at least 5-inches from the top of the bed rails to the bottom of the trailer…

With the weight of your camper I recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs #AL35FJ. I prefer these as they have the internal jounce bumper which helps to reduce the bounce that is often associated with towing a trailer and…

Yes, you are able to use the different parts together on your 2022 Ford F-350. First you will start with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch #BWGNRK1116. Since you have a short bed truck you may also want the 4" Offset Ball…

You do not have to use a sliding 5th wheel hitch in a short bed truck. In many cases, truck beds shorter than 8 ft do not have enough clearance between the trailer and truck to execute sharp turns. This is why sliding hitches were invented. Due to…
