Compatible Sidewinder Pin Box Replacement For A MORryde RPB72-1621HD Pin Box  

Question:

I am buying a 2022 Jayco Pinnacle 32RLTS and wanting to replace to 5th wheel king pin to a rotating turret. The camper has the fowling parts on it now and didnt know if I can use the morryde cushioned pin box or not. Morryde part # RPB72-1621HD and Lippert components S/N S007326251 LCI item Number2021011977. I will be pulling this with my 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 Diesel short bed 6foot 6inch with puck system. I also am looking to use Reese M5 5th wheel trailer hitch RP30895 or RP30890 Thank you

The MORryde RPB72-1621HD has a 1621 bolt pattern so you will be able to replace this pin box with the Reese Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin with Rotating Turret # RP34FR. This rotating pin box is going to push the pivot point back 22" to give your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 extra turning clearance and help prevent the nose of your 5th wheel from coming into contact with the cab of your Silverado.

Since your 2022 Jayco Pinnacle 32RLTS has a GWVR of 15,500lbs the Reese M5 # RP30890 will have plenty enough weight capacity but you can still go with the Reese M5 # RP30895 if you'd like to have the peace of mind knowing you'll never exceed it or think you might purchase a heavier trailer down the road and don't want to have to purchase another hitch.

Since you'll be using an M5 hitch you'll want the Sidewinder Wedge Kit for 20,000-lb Reese ELITE, M-Series, or ProSeries Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitches # RP44FR to prevent the king pin of your pin box from rotating in the jaws of the hitch.

If you don't already have an in-bed 7-way connection for your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 then I recommend also installing the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector # C56070. This custom harness plugs in-line with your existing factory wiring so that you can retain use of your Chevrolet Silverado 3500's factory 7-pole while adding a 7-way connector in your truck bed for quick, simple hookup of your 5th-wheel trailer.
