A brother to the Companion, the Companion Slider for GM Pucks uses the same great coupler but with a base designed to utilize the GM factory hitch platform. Like every hitch in our Companion series, it offers a smooth ride and easy hook-up and removal for a level bed—all without sacrificing sturdiness, reliability, or towing power.
Built-In Slider
Most often used on trucks with 6' beds, a slider helps to eliminate clearance problems during slow-speed turns. When you are towing a fifth-wheel trailer, your hitch must be situated on the cab side of your truck's rear axle. However, at slow speeds you can use a slider to slide the fifth-wheel hitch (and the trailer) toward your truck's tailgate and past the rear axle, creating enough space between the cab of your truck and the trailer to permit less-restricted turning.
