Video Transcript for Review of Reese ReesePlus Replacement Fifth Wheel Hitch Head - 58292
Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're gonna take a quick look at the Reese replacement 20K Select Plus 5th wheel head. This is going to provide the head for your 5th wheel trailer hitch. So if your original head has become damaged, binding up, whatever the case may be, this is going to be a direct replacement from Reese. So it is going to work with your 20,000 pound 5th wheel trailer hitch, will also work with the older 18,000 pounds Select Plus 5th wheel hitches. So either way, it's gonna do a good job of allowing you to pull that 5th wheel trailer.
Again, it's gonna work exactly like your old hitch did, hitch head did. It's got the bolts here for your arm, so that you can easily control the opening and closing of your latch there. They also include pins to get this mounted on the bottom of your hitch. Now, if you have also encountered damage to your body, that is also sold here at etrailer.com. You can find it using the part number that you see on the screen there, but this is just the head.
So if you need that as well, you'll have to purchase that separately. But this head kit is going to give you the arm and the head with the locking jaw and the hardware to get the arm mounted on the head and the head mounted on the body. So if you are in need of a replacement head, this is going to be the option for you. This is a Reese product, so you can trust it's gonna work well for your application. You're not gonna have to worry about compatibility issues or anything like that, it should get you up and operational again.
So that's gonna complete our look for today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Thanks to George J and Becky B for getting a relacement head for my Reese 20K hitch to me very quickly. The head is exactly what I needed and arrived in excellent condition.

The product was received in a timely manner and in good shape. It appears and acts like the original. The only issues was that (unlike the product picture) the head did not include the bolt, washer and net to attach the handle to the head.

view full answer... - What Does Jaw of Reese Elite Fifth Wheel Hitch Look Like When Locked Open and ClosedWhen the Reese Elite hitches like what the head part # 58292 fits is locked open the hook that grabs the king pin slide totally out of the way of the head of the hitch. In the attached picture you can see the open and closed position that I took from the demo video I attached below. The head of the hitch does pivot to help with terrain that isn't perfectly level, but in general it does help quite a bit if your truck is perfectly level to the trailer when you go to connect and disconnect....

- Replacement Head for Reese Signature Series 24K Fifth Wheel HitchI reached out to a representative of Reese who told me the correct replacement head for the Reese 24K Signature Series was the Select Plus Fifth Wheel Head Kit # 58292.
view full answer... - Replacement Head Assembly for Reese Signature Series 16K 5th Wheel Trailer HitchI spoke with our contact at Reese and he informed me that typically when the head assembly locks up like yours, you simply need to lube the head assembly. You can use some lithium grease such as the LubriMatic # L11350 and lube the jaw, as well as down the channel that the handle slides in, working it a few times. Then simply repeat until hopefully you are able to unlock the assembly. If this does not work, the appropriate replacement plate assembly is the Reese # 58292. This is a 20K...
view full answer... - Locking Jaw Will Not Fully Open On Reese 20K Select Plus 5th Wheel Trailer HitchThere are a few things that could cause the issue you are having with the locking jaw not opening up fully on the Reese Select Plus 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30081. The first thing I would check is that the jaw is greased properly and there is no foreign material inside the head that is stopping the jaw from fully opening. If nothing is found then there could also be a damaged component such as the jaw spring part # RP58230. If needed, we also offer a replacement head the 20K Select...

- Are the Reese Select Plus and M5 5th Wheel Hitch Heads InterchangeableThe Replacement Head Assembly for Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30892 will only work with the Replacement Center Section for Reese M5 5th Wheel Hitch part # RP30894 or part # RP30884. If you have a Reese Select Plus 5th Wheel Hitch you would need to use the 20K Select Plus Fifth Wheel Head Kit part # 58292.

This is rated for a lower capacity but will work with your legs and there isn't a higher rated capacity available. If you just need one of these components they will work with your hitch.

view full answer... - Can I Switch Legs On Reese Elite For Ford Puck System To Fit GM Factory Puck SystemWe do have hitches that fit the GM factory puck package but the replacement legs part # RP30889 is not compatible with the head of your Reese Elite Series hitch part # 58292. The Reese Elite hitch is designed with legs to fit the Ford prep package or the Reese Elite Underbed Rail installation kit, but you already have a puck system. I recommend getting a 5th Wheel Hitch designed to fit the GM factory puck package The Reese M5 part # RP30890. I recommend this 5th Wheel Hitch because...
view full answer... - Reese M5 Series Jaw Will Not Open All the Way with Handle Locked in Open PositionThere could be something gumming up the works internally with your hitch, # RP30921, that is not allowing the jaws to stay fully opened. Usually this means there is some dirt and grime that got mixed up with the grease used to lubricate the mechanism. If you take just the head off and flip it over you might be able to see this more clearly. If you clean off the old grease and reapply some new grease that could be all you need. It is also possible that there is something mechanically...
view full answer... - Towing a Trailer Rated for 15,500 Pounds with A 15,000 Pound Rated HitchCongratulations on the purchase of a new RV. For safety reasons, I can not recommend the setup that you are suggesting. Even though your, # 30046, hitch is rated to tow 15,000 pounds, the potential to overload the hitch exists. I would recommend upgrading your 15k hitch to at least a 16k model. There are two models that you can use to upgrade your existing hardware to either 16,000 pounds or 20,000 pounds. The Replacement 16K Fifth Wheel Hitch Head, item # RP30047A, would use your existing...

view full answer... - Will the 18K Select Plus 5th Wheel Hitch Work with Reese 16K 5th Wheel, with SliderI spoke with my contact at Reese and made sure that your slider, either a Kwik Slide or a Round Tube Slider, will work with the 18K Fifth Wheel Hitch - Select Plus, item # 30081. You can use the Select plus 18k head on either slider, so you should be good as long as your slider is made by Reese or Draw-Tite. You could also order the parts separately without the legs. You would need item # 58292 and # 58293, but the cost would be more than ordering the Select Plus 18K Fifth Wheel Hitch,...

If you have the Reese Kwik Slide Square Tube, part # 30048, you can use Reese Select Plus head, part # 58292. You will also need the head support, part # 58293.
view full answer... - Jaw Will Not Open All the Way on Hi-Rise Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch AdapterIt sounds like your Hi Rise hitch # 9480-5W just needs some routine maintenance. Over time the moving parts could get grim caught up in the works and cause the jaw retraction problem you are having. Making sure the moving parts are cleaned and lubricated per the manual is the first step I recommend taking. I have linked the manual for you. If you continue to have the problem then it is also possible that something is worn and/or needs to be replaced. In this case it is most likely a...

view full answer... - Will a Reese Elite Series 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Head Fit in a Reese 16K Slider BaseI have some good news for you. While an Elite Series head would not work in place of the 16K head on Reese 5th wheel hitches you can use the Select Plus head # 58292. The only other part you would need according to Reese is the center section specific to this head which is # 58293. Another 20K option is to use the Pro Series head that comes with the center section # 30118. The slider base that you have now in your 2009 Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra 2500 is compatible with the above options.
