They have a binkley head for a very solid secure and easy connection. This hitch will take out 95% of that jerking/chucking.
    I know that would take care of it, but the weight of the hitch is something I can't add in to my truck at this time. The chucking/jerking is not too bad most of the time, just something I wasn't used to with the Hensley hitch or any TT hitch I am sure. I considered the Moryde pin box, just haven't pulled the trigger on it yet.

    FYI, if you want the Morryde they are selling on eBay for $483 with free shipping. The version is the one for the 303.

    It's interesting how this thread on the ProPride and Hensley hitches for travel trailers morphed into a discussion on fifth wheel hitches.

    As long as we're discussing fifth wheel hitches, let me add two cents on the Andersen hitch. I get zero, zip, nata as far as bucking, chucking or jerking - it is rock solid and I dodn't get that kind of feedback from my fiver. I can't high hitch it and even if someone tampers with it or I forget to latch it, it stays in place.

    I'm searching now, and hoping Sean at ProPride wants to steal my business away from Hensley.

    And Terry at Hensley won my business after all. Included a bunch of stuff with the "remanufactured" hitch. I installed that beast yesterday, I'm excited to get it on the road now!

    I saw that as well. Hope Hensley's hitch bar exchange is as easy as it sounds when I upgrade

    You are going to live both of those hitches. It will take a little getting used to hitching and unhitching...but once you get used to it you won’t tow a bumper pull without it. I did have the ProPride and used the adjustable stinger. Be ready to answer a lot of questions at the campgrounds! Enjoy!
