Recommendation to Improve Ride Quality with Youngs Welding Pin Box on Trailer
Question:
Is there a 21000 corsair for a 45 Deg telescoping? I have determined that I have a Youngs Welding 45 deg telescopic style of hitch. What are the options for different pin boxes that I can install on my trailer?

I may have a great solution for you, however we don't currently have any upgraded pin box options that are designed to replace the Youngs Welding 45-Degree pin box currently on your trailer.
If you are in search of a new pin box in an effort to help smooth out your ride, another option is to replace your 5th wheel hitch with one that features a superior jaw and head design. For this I highly recommend the Curt A20 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C16140 or the Slider Version # C16541 (if you have a short bed). The A20 uses an interlocking 2-jaw system for 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact. This is going to greatly reduce any rattle and movement at the connection for a much more pleasant towing experience.
The A20 also features a fully articulating torsion head which not only helps with hookup (since you don't have to be exactly in line when backing up the truck) but also just adds to the overall ride quality as it's able to suppress road shock during travel.
I have attached a short video review that you can check out as well.
