Notes:

  • Do not use the Trailair Rota-Flex pin box with any type of gooseneck adapter.
  • The Trailair Rota-Flex is not compatible with Curt E-Series, Q-Series, or CrossWing 5th wheel hitches.

The Rota-Flex pin box has a pivoting head and built-in rubber compound that help to reduce chucking and absorb road shock for a smoother ride as you tow your fifth-wheel trailer.


Pivoting Head Reduces Chucking

The Lippert Rota-Flex pin box has a pivoting head to help reduce chucking

The pivoting head on the Rota-Flex allows for controlled back and forth movement of the king pin to reduce the uncomfortable jarring known as chucking. Unlike a rigid pin box that has little give at the point where the trailer and the hitch are connected, the Rota-Flex can pivot slightly to compensate for those times that your trailer suddenly pushes or pulls on your tow vehicle. Because the pin box head - not the king pin itself - is moving, the chucking that often occurs when the king pin jerks around inside the hitch is significantly reduced.


Rubber Compound Absorbs Road Shock

The Lippert Rota-Flex pin box has a built-in rubber compound to help absorb road shock

A heavy-duty rubber compound is built into the head assembly of the Rota-Flex pin box. This rubber absorbs the bumps and vibrations, or road shock, experienced when towing a fifth-wheel trailer over rough roads. Standard pin boxes without any type of shock absorption transfer road shock to your trailer, resulting in potential damage to the trailer and an overall bumpy ride. The shock-absorbing rubber inside the Rota-Flex takes the beating so there's less wear and tear on your trailer or RV and you get a smoother ride.


Easy, Bolt-On Installation

The Rota-Flex is easy to install. Simply remove your existing Lippert 1621 or 1621HD pin box and install the Rota-Flex on your trailer or RV. The Rota-Flex uses the same bolts that held on your original pin box so no additional hardware is required. Plus, it comes out of the box ready to be put on your trailer, so no assembly is needed. Because the Rota-Flex is quite heavy, you should put it on an elevated surface or have a friend help you support its weight during installation.

It did what it was advertised to do.

Helps take the bumps out of our wonderful roads.

Great product, Installed and what difference the ride. Thanks SJ McDonnell



by:

Switched from a ball. Glad I did. Very well pleased.



by:

Works great eliminated the jaring. Also shorter so I can make a hard turn without touching the sides of my box



by:

Great quality, great customer service - I’ll use E-trailer for everything I can now!



by:

The cardboard box the hitch was delivered in was damaged, hitch was not damaged. Curt could potentially package the hitch differently to protect the product and mitigate delivery damage.



by:

Product was as ordered. Hat's off to etrailer. After UPS lost the first one, etrailer expedited its replacement



by:

I received the pin box in good condition. Preparing to install. Much anticipation to get rid of present air ride hitch which is woefully inadequate.



by:

The hitch arrived poorly packaged in a cardboard box. The hitch is very heavy. It was scratched and required repainting.

The hitch itself looks well made and strong.



by:

Great service and fast shipping!! Great King pin . But wouldn’t fix my 5 wheel pin box.

  • Recommended Capture Plates for Trailair Rota-Flex Pin Box with Demco Hijacker Autoslide
    It looks like you might have a Trailair Roto-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box like # LC328330. I do recommend confirming this by locating the model name of your existing pin box. If this is the case, then to use the Demco Hijacker Autoslide 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # DM8550034 referenced in your question, you will just need to add the Demco Hijacker Capture Plates # DM6171. These capture plates are designed specifically for the Trailair Rota-Flex pin boxes and will prevent the king pin from pivoting...

  • Recommended Replacement Pin Box for Lippert 182209 1621 on 2010 KZ Durango LX
    I reached out to my contact at Lippert and you do have the 1621 pin box on your 2010 KZ Durango LX. If you are looking for a cushioned pin box, I recommend the Trailair Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 - 18,000 lbs # LC328492 or the 21,000 lb # LC369535. Either of these will work well and they not only have the air ride but also have a rubber compound and moving head to be the fist defense against road shock and chucking. If you desire greater turning clearance, then the 5th...

  • Replacing Rota Flex Pin Box On 2019 Grand Design Solitude Fifth Wheel.
    Great question and information. Based on your information I recommend the Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 or 1621HD - 18,000 lbs # LC328330. Since your trailer is at 16,800 GVWR you really do not need to go up to 21,000 unless you just want to. The 18k capacity of this pin box will be enough. If you do want the larger capacity you can get it here. Curt Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 - 21,000 lbs Item # LC328329. From the center of the king pin to the center...

  • How to Fix Excess Chucking While Towing Your 5th Wheel
    Hey Clayton, thanks for reaching out! The bolts on the side of the pin box should not be loosened. I know the arrows are a little confusing and seem to indicate adjusting will somehow control the chucking, but that is not the case. They are just a graphic to highlight that the head will pivot to help control chucking while towing. That being said, if you're getting a lot of chucking, then the fifth wheel hitch is almost always the problem--not the pin box. The chucking can be solved by...

  • Reese Goose Box Replacement for 1621 Pin Box
    KZ does not specify in their online manual which pin box they install but since you know you have the Rota-Flex # LC328330, which is compatible as a replacement for a 1621 or 1621HD pin box, you can be assured of the fit of the Reese Goose Box # RP85FR, which comes with new mounting hardware.

  • Upgrading Pin Box to the Curt Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box
    Appreciate you reaching out Juan! Lippert confirmed that your LCI number is a 1621 pin box. Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328330 is going to be a direct replacement and bolts right on. The Rota-Flex pin box is highly rated because it has a pivoting head with a built-in rubber compound. It works to reduce chucking and absorb road shock, resulting in a smoother ride and less wear and tear on your trailer. Are you usually traveling on short trips or long distances?

  • Adjusting Lippert Components Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box
    In order to resist the chucking (fore and aft jarring movement) experienced, the swiveling skid plate is pretty stiff by design. The relatively gentle jarring experienced during hitching will not move the plate much at all but any chucking experienced during travel will be dampened by the pin box. The bolts that hold the skid or pin plate to the pin box are properly torqued during the assembly process, and for safety reasons should not be loosened. Once the pin box is installed and the...

  • Recommended Sidewinder and Reese 5th Wheel Hitch for Use with a 2018 Ram 2500 Short Bed with Ram Box
    You definitely have the right setup in mind. Since the Ram Box on your 2018 Ram 2500 with a short bed limits the inside width of your truck bed a Sidewinder is the only viable solution. I called my contact at Lippert who said that your Trailair Rota-Flex has the pin box number 1621 according to the serial number, making it part # LC328330 on our site. For a Sidewinder that is a compatible replacement you can use part # RP34FR. We also have the 5th Airborne Premium # RP61422 which adds...

  • How Many Bolts Get Used to Install a RotaFlex Pin Box on a Trailer
    When you attach a RotoFlex pin box like the part # LC328330 you will need to use the same amount of bolts per side of the pin box like that the original pin box used to secure to the trailer frame. Some setups will require only 4 bolts and some may require 5 or 6. It really depends on the trailer and what was originally on the trailer.

  • Is The Rubber Pad On A Rota-Flex Pin Box Replaceable
    Hey Kevin, The rubber plate for your customer's Rota-Flex pin box is unfortunately not sold separately and would not be a replaceable part. They would be looking at a complete replacement of the pin box. To find the correct replacement we'll need to determine the bolt pattern, which we can look up if you can find the sticker that lists the RPO, LCI item, and serial numbers.

  • Rota-Flex Pin Box Upgrade for a 2022 Salem Hemisphere 369BL
    Thanks for the photo, David! The pin box on your 2022 Salem Hemisphere 369BL is a 1621 model with a 15.5K weight rating. To replace this with a Rota-Flex you need the part # LC328330. This is rated for 18K, but the extra bit of capacity won't be an issue. The Rota-Fle is more of a mid-tier pin box so if you wanted something with a better performance, then I recommend the MORryde Cushioned 5th Wheel Pin Box # MR84VR which has a better cushioning system.

  • Best Cushioned Pin Box Replacements for Lippert 1621HD with 18k Capacity
    The correct Rota-Flex pin box you need to replace the Lippert 1621HD you have on your trailer that has an 18k weight rating is the part # LC328330. This provides front to back cushioning with the cushioned pin box plate. If instead you wanted vertical cushioning in addition to that we have the Flex Air part # LC328492 which I recommend highly. This is the most effective cushioned pin box solution available for your trailer.

  • Trailair Rota Flex Cushioned Pin Box that Fits as Replacement for Fabex 665
    The cushioned Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328330 does fit the Fabex 665 that you have now and would work great as a cushioned replacement. While this pin box states it's designed to fit as a replacement for the Lippert 1621 or 1621HD we've found that in general the 1621 and the Fabex 665 are identical.

  • Lippert Level Up 2571264 Hydraulic Cylinder Is Leaking - What Are Options For A Replacement?
    Hello Ian, thanks for reaching out. The part number 2571264 comes back as the Lippert Level Up hydraulic leveling jack. This is an older model that has been discontinued unfortunately, so a replacement hydraulic cylinder is not available. Your best option is going to be a complete replacement for the jack. According to Lippert, the 2571264 was replaced, and the whole leg is now available as part # LC36VR.

  • Can Rhino Box Pin Box Fit 1621 Bolt Pattern
    Hi Steve; a pin box with the Lippert Rhino bolt pattern will not fit the 1621 bolt pattern. You have to match the bolt pattern on your 5th wheel when choosing a replacement. Were you wanting to get the Rota-Flex you were looking at? Assuming you are you can choose from the following: -Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 or 1621HD - 18,000 lbs # LC328330 -Curt Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 - 21,000 lbs # LC328329

  • Is the Demco Recon Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Hitch Compatible w/ a Rota-Flex Pin Box?
    Yes, it will! The Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter item # DM8550045, which is the full 5th wheel hitch to the Demco 6201 base item # DM6201 you referenced, is definitely compatible with Rota Flex pin boxes like item # LC328330.

  • Is Trailair Rota-Flex King Pin at an Angle an Issue
    Hey David, great question! The king pin on the Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328330 being angled down like that is perfectly normal - that's just it's natural resting state. Since it pivots on the bottom of the pin box it will connect just fine with your 5th wheel hitch when you go to couple up to the trailer again.

  • Is MORryde or Rota-Flex a Better 1621 Pin Box Replacement?
    Hey Donald, thanks for reaching out! I recommend using the MORryde Cushioned Pin Box # MR84VR over the Curt Rota-Flex # LC328330 any day because it has better cushioning technology. Back in the day when the Rota-Flex was first released it was top-notch, and while it's still an effective pin box, the MORryde system performs better. The MORryde number I referenced above is for 14K - 18K trailers. If you have a different GVWR then you'll either need part # MR74VR for 11.5K - 14K trailers...

  • Will The Curt Flex Air Pin Box Add More Clearance Than The Rota-Flex Pin Box
    The Curt Flex Air 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 # LC369535 is approximately 19-9/16" in height, whereas the Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box - Lippert 1621 # LC328330 is approximately 13-3/16" in height. This will give you the additional clearance you were looking for but you will need to check the bolt pattern of your current pin box to ensure that it is in fact a 1621 bolt pattern. If you can find the serial/RPO numbers on it we can look it up or you can use the attached guide...

  • Rota-Flex or MORryde to Reduce Chucking to Replace Lippert 1621 Pin Box
    To best combat chucking, between a MORryde and Rota-Flex pin box, the best option to replace your Lippert 1621 is the Rota-Flex, with the correct part number being the following: - Trailair Rota-Flex 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC328330 While no pin box is going to 100 percent eliminate chucking, the Rota-Flex # LC328330 will do the best job of minimizing it.
