Question

Question:

Will this GY98GR adaptor work with a Brinkley Z2900 that I just purchased or will I need the larger GY33GR? Stock hitch is a Lippert Rhino Box. GVWR is 14,495 lbs. Hitch weight is 2,081 lbs. Truck is Chevy 3500HD

Hey Michael, the Gen-Y Hitch 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY98GR you're looking at will work just fine with your Brinkley Model Z 29000, so you don't need to use the larger Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY33GR.

This adapter has a 21K weight capacity, and it looks like your trailer is right around 14,000 lbs so you'll have plenty of capacity left.

I sent your pin box sticker to Lippert to determine what pin box you have and it's a Rhino Box model so while we don't have a Goose Box that will fit we do have a Gen-Y cushioned gooseneck adapter #GY98GR which has a 21k capacity.
