Is Trailair Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box a Quality Upgrade

Question

Question:

I have a Triglide hitch on my 2014 5th that moves back and forth. I know this is discontinued. Have there been problems with this model that you know of. I find it works well but it is a bit messy and a pain to keep greased i am considering going to a moryde hitch as I have had good experience with them. Any recomendation good or bad?

The Trailair Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328484 that fits a Lippert 0719 pin box is the best upgrade you can make, and far better than MORryde's rubber pin box. This is opposed to the air bag in the Trailair Flex Air, which ensures that you get the most comfortable ride possible; additionally, there are no known issues with this pin box upgrade whatsoever. If you are going to go with a pin box upgrade, this is the one to go with.

I have added a link to a video review of the Flex Air for you to check out.
