Revolution Pin Box and Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch on 2017 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a revolution pin box will the wedge work with this demco recon
asked by: Michael F
Expert Reply:
The Revolution Pin Box and other rotating turret type pin boxes are not compatible with the Demco Recon 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch, # DM8550045-5W.
The best 5th wheel setup would be to use the Reese 20K, # RP30928 mounted with the Reese Quick-Install Custom Base Rails and Installation Kit, # RP50087-58. Then use wedge kit, # RP44FR to lock the king pin so that only the rotating turret is moving.
