Pullrite SuperGlide question...

If you have a Pullrite Superglide hitch installed in your truck, can you pull a 5th wheel trailer that does not have the adapter plate installed on the trailer pin box (and just not have the automatic slide feature)?

I know that once you install the adapter on the pinbox you can only pull it with a Superglide hitch.

I have ordered my new SuperGlide and want to have everything ready when it arrives.

I only have enough room in my driveway near my basement shop to put one vehicle, so I thought about installing the hitch in the truck first, then bringing my trailer home from storage and installing the adapter. I was wondering if I could pull the trailer before I installed the adapter on it?

If not, I probably can unbolt the pinbox from the RV and bring it home to install the adapter.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Jim
