Determining What Replacement Pin Box Will Fit 2014 Keystone Mountaineer Fifth Wheel Trailer
Question:
I purchased 2014 Keystone Mountaineer 291RLT. Is the 5th Airborne Premium Fifth Wheel Air Ride Coupler - Extended 12-1/2inch Wide Air Ride compatible with this? Does this extended pin box provide better turning radius than without it?

We will need the pin box name and number you have on your 2014 Keystone Mountaineer Trailer. The numbers are typically found on a sticker or plate on the left side of the pin box. The numbers are needed because the mounting holes are different for the many types of pin boxes.
If you cannot locate the make and model number of your pin box, you can call the manufacturer with the VIN and they should be able to tell you what pin box was installed.
I have attached a link to a help article that shows how to measure and determine the correct pin box replacement you can check out.
An extended pin box will give you more turning radius. It increases the distance for the fifth wheel from the cab of the truck which helps when executing turns. I have also attached a helpful article that explains fifth wheel hitches and installation tips you may want to take a look at.
