Is the MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box # MR84VR The Same Length as a Lippert 1621?

Question:

Looking for physical specs on MORryde replacement for Lippert 1621. I CANNOT lose any clearance on turning radius. What are measurements from pin center to bolt holes?

The MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box # MR84VR is going to be the same length of 17-3/4" from the center of the king pin to the center of the front mounting bolts. Do understand this measurement is the horizontal distance only and does not account for any vertical difference if you are measuring at an angle. One thing to remember is the cushion does allow for additional movement of the king pin up to 3" total front to rear and 1-1/2" side to side. These movements are only fully experienced under situation like hard braking and acceleration.
