Fifth Wheel Sliders are used on short bed pickups to prevent damage to both the truck and trailer when maneuvering in tight locations and at low speeds. When pulling a fifth wheel trailer, the king pin needs to be in front of the rear axle. On short bed trucks, the trailer is closer to the cab of the truck so on sharp turns the trailer could actually come in contact with the truck cab. The slider provides a greater turning clearance by moving the king pin farther back to the rear of the truck when maneuvering at low speeds around camp sites etc, providing a greater turning clearance.
