Best Upgrade Replacement For Lippert Rhino 5th Wheel Pin Box
Question:
I would like to replace the OEM Rhino pin box LCI item # 2020121070, on my 2022 Rogue 4007. Will the Flex Air add height? Which would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
The Flex Air will not add height when replacing your Lippert Rhino pin box, and in fact the height is adjustable for the pin box so you can get it in the exact position you need. As for the best upgrade for the Rhino, you've found it with the Flex Air:
- Curt Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert Rhino - 21,000 lbs # LC65VR
The Flex Air # LC65VR combines the best of all pin box upgrades, with a rubber compound, air bag, shock, and slightly pivoting head, for the smoothest possible ride. Most give you one or the other, which is why the Flex Air is going to be the best upgrade. The rubber compound in the head is the first thing that takes effect, soaking up the initial movement when you encounter rough terrain.
But it can only absorb so much, and the next layer is the shock and air bag. When going over truly rough roads, or hitting that unavoidable pot hole on the highway, the air bag will engage, limiting your trailer's movement at the king pin, so you won't feel that bump deep in your bones like you would with a standard pin box. The shock controls the amount of compression of the air bag, so when the air bag does it job, it can de-compress smoothly.
Finally, the Flex Air # LC65VR gives you the (slightly) pivoting head, which controls back-and-forth movement. Because the head of the Flex Air moves, the king pin will be stabilized inside the hitch instead of pushing and pulling your trailer, for a far more comfortable towing experience.
