About the SuperGlide

The SuperGlide is PullRite's flagship fifth wheel hitch and the only fully automatic sliding hitch on the market. Engineered specifically for short bed trucks, SuperGlide eliminates the cab clearance problem that plagues every short bed owner towing a fifth wheel trailer. There are no levers to throw, no switches to flip, and no getting in and out of the truck before and after every turn. Just get in and drive.

During turns and backing maneuvers, the SuperGlide's patented cam-action system automatically moves your trailer away from the cab along its rails, then returns it to the towing position when you straighten out. The result is a full 90-degree turning capability that other hitches simply cannot match. Manual slide hitches require you to stop, exit the vehicle, engage a lever, make your turn, stop again, and re-engage. SuperGlide does all of this in real time, without you lifting a finger.

Every SuperGlide is built around PullRite's patented fully automatic locking jaw — the only self-locking handle on the market. There are no secondary locking devices to manually engage, which means no reaching over high-sided truck beds. The precision, laser-cut jaw components cradle the trailer's king pin at 140 degrees for a secure, tight-fitting 320 degrees of connection. The dual-articulating hitch head moves side-to-side and front-to-back, delivering a smoother ride over uneven roads and allowing you to couple and uncouple on uneven ground without jacking or shimming.

The hitch head is easily removable with pins and clips — no tools required — reducing the lifting weight by 40 lbs. or more. An adjustable tension bolt prevents bumping or chucking during travel. A Capture Plate (sold separately) is required to activate the sliding cam arm and is attached to your trailer's skid plate.

Every SuperGlide is SAE J2638 tested, accurately weight rated, and manufactured in the USA from high-quality American steel.

About This Model

The #3100 SuperGlide is purpose-built for the modern half-ton trucks with beds shorter than 6 feet. With an industry-leading 22-3/4 inches of fully automatic slide travel, it delivers the maximum cab clearance available for super short bed configurations where every inch matters.

SuperGlide automatically moves the trailer away from the cab during turns, allowing up to 90-degree turning without stopping or slowing down, then returns the trailer to the safe towing position over the axle when the turn is completed. Rated at 12,000 lbs. gross trailer weight and 3,000 lbs. pin weight capacity, it is sized for lighter fifth wheel trailers commonly paired with half-ton trucks.

Mounts to Traditional Series SuperRails. A Capture Plate is required to activate the sliding cam arm and is sold separately.
