You will want to verify the pin box on your 2014 Heartland Bighorn as well as the tongue weight on your pin box. Based on information from others I see the 1621 pin box is the most commonly used on the 2014 Bighorn. You can verify this if your pin box still has the manufacturer decal with size on the front, or by measuring the bolt pattern. A 1621 pin box has bolt holes spread 2" vertically and 7-7/8" front to back. If you have this you will want a Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box from the list below to match your weights.

1,500 - 3,500lbs Tongue Weight Up to 21,000lbs # GY58GR
2,000 - 4,500lbs Tongue Weight Up to 25,000lbs # GY38FR
3,500 - 5,500lbs Tongue Weight Up to 25,000lbs # GY66FR
