Can you get me the pin box info from the trailer? I'll need that to determine which Sidewind would possibly fit.
Sidewinders are pin box specific so you will first need to know what pin box you have know in order to pick out the correct one. I tried searching with the numbers you listed that came off of your trailer and wasn't able to determine what pin box you have.
There should be a sticker or a stamping on the OEM pin box of the trailer that will list the pin box number that is on the trailer. Common Lippert pin boxes are 1621, 1621HD, and 1716.
Once you figure out which pin box you have you can check the FAQ I attached that has a chart that shows the correct Sidewinder to get based on which pin box you have.
