We are not going to have a replacement pin box that will fit in place of your Mor/Ryde pin box. Yours appears to be welded on, which is likely the way it came on the trailer, so that would account for the absence of bolts. I wish we had something that would replace it but we do not.

Another option if you are seeking a better ride when towing the trailer is to replace the 5th wheel hitch you are using. There are some hitches, like the Curt Q20, # C16130, or Q16, # C16120, that are cushioned to improve ride quality.

If the pin box is also cushioned though you would need to ask the trailer manufacturer if it is permissible to use a cushioned hitch with the cushioned pin box.
