I have both a superglide in my 01 QCSB and wide body 102" 5ver. Works great. Not sure if I could make a full 90 degree though as I've never tried it.

Don't know what you mean by "pit in the front of the trailer"

Sorry I guess I ment how far is the pin from the front of the trailer, Mine is about 5 inches behind. I think that is where the problem is. The superglide cant go all the way back before the corner of the trailer hits.

My 5ver has an extended pin box which puts the pin several inches in front of the trailer. I don't know how much as I've never measured it. Pullrite's website says that in most cases even with the pin underneath the front of the trailer you should be okay. But not in all cases. I would suggest that you contact pullrite directly to help troubleshoot your issue.

My pin is 5-6" under the cap of my trailer and I never had a clearance problem when turning with my Superglide, and my trailer is 102" wide. I bet your good to go.

JuzPlaneKrazy,
Do you have the 18k or 24k hitch? The 18k slides 14" and the 24k slides 18".
With a 20.5k trailer I would imagine you have the 18" slide.
