Can You Hook Up a 5th Wheel Trailer at an Angle Using a Trailair Air Ride Pin Box
Question:
Is it possible to hookup up the 5th wheel at an angle to this pin box? Having a RAM 3500 crew cab long bed has left me with no room to backup in some RV parks.

Trailair Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328492 for Lippert 1621 pin boxes will work the same hookup angles that your 5th wheel hitch is rated for which is to say as straight of an angle as you can get. The pin box needs to be able to ramp up the 5th wheel hitch so the king pin gets funneled into the hitch jaws. I advise using a great deal of caution and a spotter if there is any doubt about the angle of approach.
