Tired of your trailer tossing you around? Curt's Helux pin box smooths things out with a tough coil spring that beats air bags and torsion setups. It's maintenance-free, easy to use, and won't put your RV's frame warranty at risk.
The Helux coil spring system absorbs road shock, jerking, and the back-and-forth chucking that wears you out on long drives. It keeps things steady through starts, stops, and uneven roads so your ride feels calmer, your cargo stays safer, and your trailer takes less of a beating.
Built from fully welded steel with a triple-layer powder coat, this pin box is made to handle years of towing and all kinds of weather. And with no airbags, bearings, or bushings to service, you won't have to think about upkeep.
Unlike some aftermarket pin boxes, this one is approved for use on Lippert RV frames. That means you get a smoother ride without risking your trailer's warranty.
Notes:
Your trailer's pin weight is the amount of weight pressing down on your truck through the king pin. It's the key factor in choosing the right Curt Helux pin box since each model is tuned to a specific pin-weight range. If it's too light, the coil springs won't engage correctly, but if it's too heavy, you'll overstress the system. When this number is accurate, the pin box performs the way it was designed and gives you the smoothest ride possible.
The most reliable method is to use a set of certified vehicle scales (like CAT scales).
This process accounts for how your trailer is actually loaded, which includes cargo and water tanks, so you know you're picking a pin box that matches the conditions you're using it with.
If you don't have access to a scale, you can get a ballpark figure with your trailer's GVWR:
This method gives you a starting point, but remember it's only an estimate. The actual pin weight can change depending on how you fill tanks and distribute weight in the trailer.

Easy to install. Works great. There is a noticeable reduction in chunking.
Glad the pin box was good. The box and pallet were damaged badly. Will be installing it tomorrow. I think it will enhance our ride while towing.
I received this curt helux pin box very quickly. I was impressed with how fast and how the shipment was handled. I've installed the pin box but haven't yet towed our 5th wheel yet. 1st camping trip later this month possibly. Maine weather needs to be a bit nicer. Anyway. So far very impressed with the product.
This pin box is absolutely amazing. Way smoother pull way less chucking ! Highly recommended this over any stock pin box.
I’ve only had my toy hauler out one since installing the hitch but went over a set of RR tracks and 3 bridges and it definitely makes a difference. Greatly soften the blows to the truck so you know it’s taking a lot of stress off the fifth wheel. Watched it workings through the rear view mirror. Simple design that someone should have come up with long ago. Took a friend of mine and I exactly 1 hour to install withe the help of his motorcycle jack on the tailgate of the truck. It’s heavy and well built. They are a little pricey but I feel well worth it for the longevity of the frame. Most importantly know the weight of your trailer loaded to pick the right one
Purchased over one month ago, I waited until I had towed our 40’ fifth wheel before rating and reviewing the Curt Helux, which replaced the OEM Curt Rota Flex. What a difference! We towed nearly 500 miles and it was the smoothest tow we have had in three years. Very little chucking was encountered even though the interstate had the usual rough bridges and construction. Installation was relatively easy-just follow the instructions-since it was a Curt product being replaced. ETrailer’s service was excellent as well.,
