Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a look at the Lippert 1716 5th wheel pin box. This has a 15,500 pound gross towing weight capacity. Now, this pin box will serve as a director placement for the worn or damaged Lippert 1716 pin box that comes on your 5th wheel trailer. The king pin right down here is what'll connect to any 5th wheel trailer hitch.
This is a durable steel construction. You can see this has a nice, black powder coat finish over it to resist rust and corrosion. And it is a bolt-on installation. It will attach to your trailer frame using your existing hardware and it'll bolt into place along the three rows of bolt holes. Now, one thing I do wanna mention is you wanna make note of the bolt hole locations of the factory installed pin box because you do wanna mount this pin box in the same hole settings using the factory hardware.
Also, because of the weight of this unit, which is right around 99 pounds, you do wanna have a friend nearby to help you lift it into place during installation. This part is made in the USA. And again, the weight capacity on this is 15,500 pounds. But that should do it for the review on the Lippert 1716 5th wheel pin box with the 15,500 pound gross towing weight capacity..

Just what I needed to pull by 5th wheel with my short bed Dodge and a Pull Rite sliding hitch. The folks a etraer were very helpful ensuring I got the right product.

Products has been working fine. Would purchase again. However Etrailer still needs TPO review their packaging procedures. Just received a part that was packed improperly and protruded from the box

Hey Nate! Glad to hear it's working well for you though I am sorry that it arrived a little dinged up like that. Let me see what I can do about the damaged paint. We will be in touch!
