Hello, everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at the Reese 5th Airborne premium fifth wheel air ride coupler, has a 20,000 pound weight capacity. Now this 5th Airborne fifth wheel air ride extended pin box coupler will act as a buffer between your tow vehicle and the trailer. It minimizes the abuse sustained from turbulence on the road. This one here is designed for use with the following pin boxes. It'll work on Lippert 1621 and 1621HD, works on the Lippert 0719, the Turning Point series, the Rhino series, and also on the Fabex PB 600 series pin boxes.
Now using the air ride technology, this pin box would work to reduce chucking, help stamp out road shock, provides a nice, smooth towing experience. The air bag is located at the top of the pin box instead of on the bottom, makes it a lot easier to make your adjustments. Wanted to to zoom in here and just show you right up here is your air manifold, comes standard for an easy air fill and it uses a pressure relief valve to prevent overfilling. Right over here on this side, there's a little opening here. This is your air level indicator on the side.
So when you're filling it up, you'll be able to see it'll indicate low, medium, and maximum air pressure. Now, this does use an innovative forward pivot design and it does pass the SAE and CSA testing standards. It does, as you can see, include the mounting hardware. I have it all laid out here. Again, the specs on this, the gross trailer weight capacity is 20,000 pounds and the pin weight capacity is 5,000 pounds.
But that should do it for the review on this Reese 5th Airborne premium fifth wheel air ride coupler with the 20,000 pound weight capacity..
Great it is far better than original pin box the original didn't allow for clearance between the tailgate and nose of trailer had to be square with the trailer to couple i. I like my new pin box
Replaced a Turning Point with this. As stock only had 4 bolt holes aligned to frame wings. Drill 4 more holes to accommodate all 8. Maybe 4 was sufficient, I don't know.
Access to air valve when mounted is almost impossible. Added 12" of braided hose to make it work.
Seems to cushion ride well, I can see it working in the rear view mirror. It does make a lot of squeaking noise, hopefully that is normal.
Do you have a question about this 5th Wheel Pin Box?

It looks like the Reese 5th Airborne Premium Fifth Wheel Air Ride Coupler is not a correct replacement for the Lippert turning point. I cannot in good faith recommend to continue the use of the pin box.
