Just a note, I did have to run a small rope from one of the slider rails to the landing gear to keep the hitch from rotating on the pin. With the Reese slider, the slider rails extend well beyond any center point of gravity so the whole hitch is tilted with the heavy end down. All is good with it pointing under the belly, but if you bump it and it rotates the hitch sticks a good 3' out the front beyond the pin box.

As Orv says, it will reach out and get you. My boy was spinning it on the pin while I was in the back. When I came around the corner I caught the rail right in the part that makes me scream and yell and crawl on my knees begging for mercy
