In order to determine what pin box you have on the trailer you will need to look at the plaque or sticker on the pin box. It should be listed there. The information you gave me does not have pin box information. The other option would be for you to get the VIN number for the trailer and take that to the trailer manufacturer and they will be able to tell you what you have based on that.

Since you are unsure of the height of the pin box on the trailer, and you did not say how tall your tow vehicle is I would recommend you get an adjustable height adapter like the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter # CAB-C5G. This adapter is height adjustable from 12 inches to 16 inches and should do well for you. This adapter is also cushioned.

I attached a review video for this product for you to check out.
