But when I'm on the interstate, I want that kingpin over the axle, not 20" out behind the axle.
PullRite SuperGlide
I can vouch for that. I've been using mine behind a sleeper for years. Best hitch money I ever spent for my application. I use it with a TrailAire pin box extension as well. Can't see that in the pic. See my rig in my sig.
