I can help you find a Sidewinder King Pin for your Cherokee 5th wheel trailer. However, there is a little more information that we will need to find the correct fit.

To get the correct Sidewinder rotating turret and king pin for your 5th wheel trailer, we will need the pin box brand and model/part number off of the current pin box on the trailer. This info can be found on a label or tag that is attached to the pin box.

For a16K king pin with rotating turret, we have seven different possibilities that may fit your trailer. I have attached a link to the product page that will have all seven listed. The page also will have the available pin box model numbers listed for you to choose from.

As an example, the Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret - 16,000 lbs, # RP34FR, would be the correct rotating turret and king pin if your trailer has a Lippert 1621 pin box.

I have also attached an article on the Sidewinder hitch for you to review.
