Expert Reply:

The Trailair Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC369535 you mention will replace Lippert 1621 pin boxes, so if you have a 1621 pin box this will work for you. If you are unsure which pin box you currently have, you should be able to locate the manufacturers name, along with the model number printed on a sticker usually on the pin box itself.

If you aren't able to locate any sticker information, then you're going to need to make a couple of measurements. You'll need to measure the horizontal bolt distance, vertical bolt hole distance, bolt size, bolt head size, front row of bolts to king pin, back row of bolts to king pin and pin box width. Also, record the number of bolts per side that secure the pin box to the trailer frame.

Once those measurements are made, you can find out what pin box you have using the chart located in the FAQ attached to this answer page.
