All SuperGlide hitches will require the installation of a capture plate in order for the hitch to function, either the QuickConnect capture plate as described above, or in installations where a QuickConnect Plate may not be available, a Universal Capture Plate may be used.
The use of the new QuickConnect Capture Plates will simplify the installation and significantly reduce the time involved in the installation. The new QuickConnect Capture Plate simply slips up over the king pin; set screws secure it to the king pin box. When the trailer is hooked up to the hitch, the QuickConnect Capture Plate will function and allow the trailer to guide the SuperGlide hitch to move when turns are being made.
*If King Pin model and measurement "A" don't match up, use measurement "A" for selection*
Ordered this to go on a new 41' Quad-bunk Cedar Creek with a Trail Air (not the tri-glide) pin box that was a factory option from Forest River. Drove to dealer 300 miles away and put this on our new 5th with two wrenches and two Allen wrenches and some red Loc-Tite. It took about 10 minutes, but the instructions had the nuts going on the outboard side of the capture plate. In fact the nuts (as well as the extra threads of the Allen cap machine screws) need to go on the inboard side of the capture plate to hold the front of the plate on the pin box.
Also be aware that there is a difference between a Trail Air pin box and a Trail Air tri-glide pin box. This plate (58) is for the Trail Air version.
All in all a great product and Dyers has the best prices, as well as the best customer service out there!
