I doubt this would be an issue but I'd want to to know exactly how close the pin box got to the tailgate while turning. I had a Superglide in my F250 but switched to a Curt in my F450 for a couple of months and now have a Hensley TS3. The TS3 is a huge improvement and I get no jerking starting or stopping. Personally, I'd sell the Superglide and get a non sliding hitch in a long bed. But, back to the question, I'd have someone check and make sure it didn't hit before towing with it the first time. It seems my hitch in my long bed sits back closer to the rear. I don't think it's an issue but I'd double check.
I really liked my Superglide and honestly didn't want to give it up but my F450 had the factory 5th wheel prep. After switching to a different hitch I found out I prefer the non sliding hitch if not needed and find it smoother. Now, in a short bed I'd rather have the security of the extra turn clearance. The TS3 is in a whole different league but the Curt was much smoother also than my Superglide.
