Expert Reply:
The number that you referenced is actually your VIN number on your 1991 Teton Miami 5th Wheel and cannot be used to identify your particular pin box. I can tell you the you will not be able to use a Reese Goose Box # RP85FR as your pin box only has a 4 bolt connection where the Reese needs 8 bolts.
I recommend using the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter # CAB-C5G for your 5th wheel if you are pulling with a long bed truck. This will convert you to a pull with your gooseneck ball in your truck. It is height adjustable from 12-16" to ensure that your 5th wheel will ride level.
If you have a short bed truck then the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter w/ Offset # CAB-C5GX1216 will provide you with additional turning clearance by moving your hitch back 7-1/2".
