The correct Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret for your 2013 Crossroads Zinger 31BH is most likely part # RP34FR or part # RP61422 for cushioned. However, trailer manufacturers do not provide us with exact pin box information therefore the only way you are going to be able to confirm the correct replacement is to either call the trailer manufacturer with your VIN and ask or look for the pin box number on the pin box you have now. If you provide me with either of these numbers I would be happy to do the leg work for you as well. The majority of newer trailers use a Lippert 1621 pin box therefore the correct replacement is most likely the Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret part # RP34FR or part # RP61422.
Please note that in order for the pivot point to not occur inside the jaws of the 5th wheel hitch you will need to use a wedge. The Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret comes with a universal wedge that works with most 5th wheel hitches but if you can tell me exactly what 5th wheel hitch you have, we may have a custom fit wedge for you which will be much improved over the universal wedge.
