Replacing A Venture CJ13517 Pin Box

Question:

Hello there! I am trying to figure out the correct Gen-y gooseneck pinbox for my 2001 Holiday Rambler Presidential 5th wheel. I think I have it but want to make sure. GVWR=14250 x 0.22=3135 Looks to currently have a medium pin box from venture welding in Elkhart Indiana, serial # 360234. Dimensions- 2a-8” 2b-3” or 1.5” depending weird bolt pattern 3a-10.5” 3b- 18.5” 2d- 13/16”? 2f- 12 total, 6 per side I think that’s it.. currently have a B@W companion 5th wheel hitch and am set up with a 2 5/16” ball w/ chain hooks in the bed. Just want to make sure I get the correct Gen Y gooseneck pinbox, any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Your 5th wheel is equipped with a Venture CJ13517 pin box, and I'm sorry to say that there is not a compatible Gen-Y Goose Box model. So your best bet will be to continue to use your B&W Companion hitch. If you want to replace your pin box, we do have the Trailair Air Ride 5th Wheel King Pin # UF35-946219. This will be a nice upgrade from the current pin box, as it offers the cushion and shock absorption of an air bag.
