Replacement Pin Box to Gain Turning Clearance with a 2016 Nissan Titan XD
Question:
I have 2016 Nissan Titan XD crewcab. I am trying to tow a 2014 Keystone Hornet 32. The factory hitch in the titan does not allow for any change in the bed of the truck. I have already dinged the cab corner once doing a moderate swing. I looked at the Trailair for the 1621 Lippert, which I have, however, I need to extend the pin box by 8-10. Is there another Trailair that I can use that will give me the swing room?

Replacement pin boxes are designed to be direct replacements and therefore getting one that is longer is not the solution. To gain turning clearance with your trailer you can use a Sidewinder which will move the pivot point back 22 inches from where it is now. I've attached a help article that explains how Sidewinder work to give you more turning clearance. To replace your Lippert 1621 pin box we have:
20,000 pounds # RP34FR
16,000 pounds with Air Ride # RP61422
