Lippert Flex Air Pin Box Upgrade Recommendation for Heartland Bighorn Fifth Wheel
Question:
I have a 2018 Ford F-250 with 6.5’ bed using a BandM slider for the Ford puck system. Pulling a 40’ Heartland Bighorn fifth wheel. Having some chucking on rough roads and bridges. Is the Tealair Flex Air pin box 21000 lbs LC369535 the right choice. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
From the research we've done on your 40’ Heartland Bighorn fifth wheel you'd have a Lippert 1621 style pin box currently which means the 21k Lippert Flex Air part # LC369535 that you referenced is a confirmed fit and would work well. This cushions up and down as well as forward to back so it will give you a much nicer ride quality! This also will work great with the B and W Slider hitch part # BWRVK3370 you have installed in the bed of your 2018 Ford F-250 with the factory rail kit.
I attached a review video for more info on this as well.
