Sidewinder to Replace Lippert 1716 MORryde Pin Box

Question:

I have purchased an outdoors 5th wheel, F28RKS, gvwr 12995 lbs, and will be towing with a 2019 ram 3500 Crew Cab, diesel HD 400hp,1000 ft/lbs limited 6'4" inch box. the 5th wheel comes with a mor-ryde rbp-74-1716-05 pin box. The hitch I will be using is a Companion RVK3600 which fits the puck system of the Ram box. Will the Reese sidewinder combo be a fit?

Thanks for all that info; the MORryde part number you gave me is designed to replace a Lippert 1716 pin box, so the correct part is Sidewinder # RP77FR.

Additionally, this set up will work great with the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Hitch # BWRVK3600 that fits your 2019 Ram 3500, though I definitely recommend Wedge # RP74FR.

With your '19 Ram 3500, 5th Airborne Sidewinder and B&W Companion, you essentially have the best 5th wheel towing set up possible so enjoy!
