Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Lippert 1716 5th wheel pin box. This has a 15,500 pound gross towing weight capacity. Now, this pin box will serve as a director placement for the worn or damaged Lippert 1716 pin box that comes on your 5th wheel trailer. The king pin right down here is what'll connect to any 5th wheel trailer hitch.
This is a durable steel construction. You can see this has a nice, black powder coat finish over it to resist rust and corrosion. And it is a bolt-on installation. It will attach to your trailer frame using your existing hardware and it'll bolt into place along the three rows of bolt holes. Now, one thing I do wanna mention is you wanna make note of the bolt hole locations of the factory installed pin box because you do wanna mount this pin box in the same hole settings using the factory hardware.
Also, because of the weight of this unit, which is right around 99 pounds, you do wanna have a friend nearby to help you lift it into place during installation. This part is made in the USA. And again, the weight capacity on this is 15,500 pounds. But that should do it for the review on the Lippert 1716 5th wheel pin box with the 15,500 pound gross towing weight capacity..

Came in today, and its already installed on my Fifthwheel.
You and your team are the best.
And what a fast turn around.
I will continue to be a loyal Etrailer customer.
Thanks again
1st time customer. Impressive support and end to end delivery of my purchase. I will use etrailer for future sourcing for my RV needs. Thank you!
For those of you who, like me, may have purchased a truck with the under the bed rail system for your fifth wheel you know the positioning of the rail system is set in front of the rear axle instead of directly above the axle making the distance between the cab and trailer that much closer. This can cause a problem hooking up with your tail gate in the down position if you have a medium length pin box on your trailer. etrailer has a great chart online to help you determine what kind of pin box you have and if there is another one manufactured that will fit in the same place. This longer pin box for me was a great economical, safe solution. The Lippert 1716 long box is a direct replacement for the Lippert 1116 medium box, but is seven inches longer giving me the needed distance to hook up.
Perfect fit and easy to change out. Beyyer yet the pin length os perfect.
because of the way it was packed or miss handled by ups people the box broke /was distroyed delaying delivery of the item and slight damage to the item which i will repair as i need to complete the install.

Everyone at etrailer did excellent work to get me the right pin box for my 5th wheel they have my business from now on
Great quality pin box for hauling my 12000 pd fifth wheel
Looks good and like the additional support plates with it.
I ordered it due to a mishap on my original pinbox being damaged. It fit perfect and had no issues. Not only did they have it in stock they are the cheapest around and free shipping. Will definitely be a loyal customer for all my trailer needs.
drove it around town to test it, worked great
My original king pin failed so with the help of etrailer's (Stacey A) amazing customer service we found an exact replacement. It was easy to install with instructions and girl power!! Thanks etrailer for your help.
It’s gonna be perfect for white. I want to use it for.
Hitch king pin box was a perfect fit and installed easily. I just finished hauling the trailer with it on a 5000 mile trip and it worked flawlessly.
Awesome customer service!
Exact fit, easy install very happy!
First time using etrailer so I wasn't sure what to expect. But they were fast, efficient and keep us updated throughout the shipment. This was a replacement part for a customer shipping their cargo on us to Nome and it had to get here on time, very pleased with the service and follow through.
Thanks
Tom
Perfect fit, went on easily! Thanks etrailer for all your assistance!!!
I was greatly surprised to find that the replacement hitch had been re-engineered. I was expecting to add reinforcement to the hitch before mounting it to the trailer. I had previously bent two hitches when I had to jump on the brakes when cut off by idiots on the highway. From what I seen in this hitch I believe it will now do what I need it to do!! Thank You
Well, unfortunately half inch off - my bad. So, had to get someone to fix it. Once it was on, it worked great.
Teresa J, was very helpful she did a great job in making sure I received the correct hitch, shipping was supper fast. The price was the best that I found on the internet. The hitch is very sturdy and heavy duty thanks for the great help.
I was happy with the price. I should fit perfectly and go on our camper with very little problems. It arrived at our home in approximately 3 days from when I ordered. which to me seemed very fast. I was however when I found it at my house the package was torn open many different ways. i'm using it to replace the factory hitch. I would etrailer for anything RV related.
The order was good but was delivered to 3601 Highway 4 should have been delivered to 3601 CR 424. Shipping label had correct address. Please contact shipper and tell them to READ shipping label!
Looks good and have installed , have not hooked up to trailer yet. Carmel D was great and helped me find the right fit. I will be back. Thanks , David A
I researched the product thoroughly and the price and free shipping were above the competition. The Pinbox was exactly as ordered, although the shipping container was in pieces when it arrived. The customer service agents were at the top of their game and pin point professional.
Exact replacement for the damaged original, easy install, good price and quick shipping!

Just what I needed to pull by 5th wheel with my short bed Dodge and a Pull Rite sliding hitch. The folks a etraer were very helpful ensuring I got the right product.
