Recommended Air Ride Pin Box for 2014 Bayhill Evergreen 385bh 5th Wheel

Question:

I think I have a lippert 1621. I want to replace it with a air ride system. What product do I need to shop for? I can send pics if the one I have if I have a email address to send them to. I have a 2014 bayhill evergreen 385bh. Thank for your time

If you indeed have a Lippert 1621 pin box (you can see the diagram I've provided to confirm), I'd recommend an Ultra-Fab pin box, which is actually manufactured by Lippert Components. Their Trailair Tri Flex, part # LC328492 would do an excellent job isolating your tow vehicle from bouncing, chucking and jarring the fifth wheel would experience, making for a much more pleasant ride. This pin box has a maximum capacity of 18K, which should be plenty of capacity for your 5th wheel.

A less expensive choice would be the Lippert Trail Air, part # LC158778 which would cushion the bouncing you'd experience, but be a bit less effective against chucking than the two choices mentioned above. This pin box is also rated at 18K.
