Sounds like your almost ready to go.

Please update your signature so we all can see your rig info.

9 1//4" front to rear counting the front lip rollup
12 3/4" side to side.
That is the one that came with my 2005 29 RLBS.
I have a TrailAir on the Trailer now

You can ad the signature in your profile area, it is the information on the bottom of the post. Go to superglide's website they have the info on capture plates. They have the measurements listed for lippert. I think you may may be able to use the quick connect plate. The others types need welded or bolted on and are a pain to remove if you have to have it towed by someone who does not have a superglide.

You will love the superglide it is nice not having to worry about turns. I have found only one drawback to hookup or unhook you almost have to be inline with the rv other then that, would not be without one for a short bed truck. IMO

Riverrat,

Here is instructions on the signature, THANKS TO TATER!!!!

This is how to make a signature:

http://www.wildcatcamperforum.com/meet-the-members-f2/adding-signature-easy-instructions-t2040.htm[/url]

It really is easy, and you can make it short and simple, or long and detailed. Include your names, some details about our current rig, and a photo of our first. If you put a photo in your signature, please try to keep it on the small side.
