Need Pin Box

[LanduytG]

I would like to get a new pin box for my fifth wheel to extend it about 12" or so. Anyone know where I can get one?

I too would like to get a pin box that would extend the hitch out about 12 inches. The problem with the popup hitch is that while it extends the kinpin out about 10 inches, it also raises the front of the trailer up about 3 1/2 inches. My hitch is already set to the lowest spot and the trailer is level. If I use the pop up hitch extension, then I would have raise the trailer up. My axles are already under the leaf springs on the trailer so I would need new leafs or spacers. I would rather get an extended pin box that would bolt up to the trailer. Any ideas?

Use the manufacturs name on the box and do a search to see if you can get something from the factory. Yuo might be able to get somthing that will bolt in.

Or try RV.com forum.

When I got my 02 the hitch was a lot higher than my 6.5. all I did was to move the springs on top of the axles. welded in new spring seats ( left in the old ones, re used the u-bolts. cost 20.00. But it took me 1 long day.

Yes but it only takes about 45min. to put lowering shackels on!!!!!!!!!

And it's much safer!!!!
