Expert Reply:

The Draw Tite 24K Signature series hitch you referenced can be interchanged with the 20K Select Plus Fifth Wheel Head Kit - Reese # 58292 and Replacement Head Pivot Springs # 58229.This is rated for a lower capacity but will work with your legs and there isn't a higher rated capacity available. If you just need one of these components they will work with your hitch.
