16k Reese Sidewinder Replacement for 10k Reese Revolution on 2013 Rockwood Signature Ultralite

Question:

Can I remove the revolution 10k and replace it with the revolution 16k? I want to replace the entire unit. The pin box on my 10k bent where the 2 bolts go through and I dont trust the 10k anymore. My unit is about 9950#. It is a 2013 Rockwood Signature ultralite 8280ws

We will have a Sidewinder (same as Reese Revolution) that would work as a replacement for your 10k model. But first we have to determine which pin box you have. Most likely your frame is designed to take a Lippert 1621 pin box as that is what customers with similar Rockwood Signature Ultralits have came back and told us but we need to be sure.

Up on the pin box there should be a plate or sticker that will say Lippert 1621 or just 1621. If so then you know the part # RP34FR will work and will have a 16k capacity.

I was wondering if the sidewinder was compatible with an andersen hitch

The Andersen Hitch is not compatible with Sidewinder Pin Boxes unless you were to lock out the turret - which would defeat the purpose of the Sidewinder. You will need to go with a standard, fixed 5th wheel hitch.
