Hey Cory,
There's unfortunately not going to be another pin box with a high enough pitch to clear the Ram boxes, but you could switch to a rotating pin box, like he Reese Sidewinder # RP34FR instead. Rotating pin boxes will lock in place with the pivot point at the trailer so the body of the pin box won't move side to side in the bed.
Before switching out your pin box you'll need to determine your bolt pattern. There should be a sticker with an RPO #, LCI item #, and serial # that can be used to look up the bolt pattern.
