Hey David!

What you're looking for is the 86005 Service Kit which was discontinued a few years ago. You might be able to find one elsewhere online but since these have been gone for a while it will be pretty difficult. I recommend reaching out to Reese directly to get their help with this since they were the ones to discontinue it - https://www.reeseprod.com/ContactUs

Thank you. I have a 16k sidewinder air borne that I purchased from etrailer in 2017. The pin box appears to be developing some cracks. However the wear bushings appear to be in good shape. If I purchase the 16k air borne sidewinder no turret on your website, will it fit the existing bushings and turret that i purchased from etrailer in 2017? Thanks.

@David Yes, the 5th Airborne Premium 5th Wheel Air Ride King Pin w/ Sidewinder and Turret RP61422 you purchased from us is comprised of the 5th Airborne Premium 5th Wheel Air Ride King Pin with Sidewinder # 5AS16K and the discontinued Turret 61300 so you can replace the Sidewinder piece with your current bushings and turret and be good to go!

Thank you. Last question. If I decide to change the turret also, my mounting flang is LCI item number 4865872. Which turret should I buy? Do you have it in stock? Thanks for the help.

@David Happy to help! To replace the turret that came with the pin box you bought you'll need the part 61300 but that was discontinued a while ago so you'll have to see if someone still has one in stock somewhere online. Since this has been gone a while you'll be pretty hard-pressed to find it in stock.
