Video Transcript for Review of Reese Accesories and Parts - Sidewinder Turret Spacer - RP97FR

Michael: Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at the spacer kit for your Sidewinder fifth wheel kingpin. As you know, the Sidewinder is a great option for those of you who have short bed pickup trucks that are wanting to haul a fifth wheel. It's going to offset that pivot point, so it's going to give you more maneuverability so that as you're making tight turns and those sort of things, your trailer isn't going to come in contact with your cab. But the Sidewinder does have set dimensions. So if you do have a wider wing set, like any of those that you see on the screen there, you will need the spacers to make sure that everything is going to fit nice and snug and be safe.Now, these are a black powder coated finish, sturdy steel construction so they're going to hold up well, last a long time.

These are going to attach to the turret on your Sidewinder with the roll pins here and they just slide in place and that's going to keep them connected. So you're not going to have to worry about installing these every time or anything like that. It's just going to stay in place and make it just a little bit wider so that it fits in well with those wing plates that you already have. This is right about a quarter inch thick. Can hold the ruler up here so you can see, right about quarter inch in width.

So between the two of them, will take you up to about a half inch and you're going to get two of these plates as well as four of these roll pins and a set of instructions to make sure that you're getting everything installed correctly.Basically the short version is, you can see these little notches in the plate here. So the two notches here indicate that this is the bottom and the notch here indicates that this is the back. So you want to make sure that you get that installed on your Sidewinder with this on the back and these on the bottom and everything should line up perfectly for you. So if you do have that Sidewinder, you need a little bit more space to make sure that everything's going to stay nice and secure. This is the kit that you're going to need.

It does come with a limited lifetime warranty. So if you we're to have any problems with them, you could give us a call, we'd help you out with that.But I really think these are going to be a great option for you. You're not going to have to worry about rattling or just not being safe in your connection. So this is going to be the kit for you. So that's going to complete our look for today.

Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

E trailer was very helpful, got me the right product, shipped it the same day.
I received it, installed it and I can get on with my next project.
I'm sure if I need trailer accessories or parts, E trailer will be my first stop.

Thank you again

Works great. Wished I would have understood the necessity of this product before I blew my back window out in Kentucky. Scared the daylights out of our dog and we were 600 miles from home just starting our journey. I would really like thank Turttles auto glass in Bristol TN. They were life savers. Cannot say enough about the service from Turttles. Very rare service. Moving the pivot point back about 20 inches is something you NEED if you have a short bed truck pulling a fifth wheel. Brian

  • Will the Reese Goose Box Adapter for Lippert 1716 Work with Mega Cab
    The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP85FR is about the same size as the standard pin box it's designed to replace so you won't gain cab clearance but you won't lose any either. It mounts to the same holes as the original as well so the height adjustment will be very similar. That said, I have attached a full dimensional drawing below as well so you can be certain it will work for you. If you are replacing a Lippert 1716 pin box, you will need to...

  • Reese Goose Box Options For a 2022 Keystone Montana 3121RL With 1116 Pin Box Mounting Flange
    You will need the Reese Goose Box # RP85FR with the Spacer Kit # RP97FR for your 2022 Keystone Montana 3121RL 5th wheel. The tags on your 5th wheel helped me to determine you have the 1116 mounting brackets. You could also use the Goose Box # RP94716-61301 but you will then limit your 16,350lbs GVWR down to only 16,000lbs. Either of these will also require the Safety Chain Kit # RP49151 since you are switching to a ball connection.

  • What is the Difference in the 3rd Generation Reese Goosebox?
    There are a couple of major differences in the 3rd generation Reese Goosebox item # RP85FR over the prior models. First and foremost it now fits the Lippert Rhino pin box. This pin box is more common now than ever and 5th wheel owners will finally have a gooseneck adapter option that will not void their warranty. Visually the biggest change will be the removal of the taller wings. Reese has changed the angle of the entire goosebox to remove the deeper drop look to a more streamlined appearance....

  • Correct Reese Goose Box for Keystone Montana
    If you have a Lippert 1116 Pin Box on the trailer then the correct Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter is part # RP85FR which will also require part # RP97FR. It comes with new hardware as well so it has everything you need to get it installed with a few friends. It's rated at 20,000 lbs and 4,000 lbs pin weight which is the highest offered for this product.

  • Do I Need The Reese Spacer Kit RP97FR To Install RP85FR Goosebox On 2022 Dutchman Voltage 4271
    Hello Adam, thanks for reaching out. The # RP97FR spacer kit may be needed, but I will need to know exactly what pin box size is on your camper currently in order to know if the spacers will be required. There should be a sticker on the pin box that shows the model number and serial number and stuff. The sticker may say the pin box size but manufacturers generally do not put this info on the sticker. Let me know the model number and serial number and I can look it up for you. The Reese...

  • Recommended Rotating Turret Replacement Pin Box for Lippert 1116

    The correct Reese Sidewinder 5th Wheel King Pin for a Lippert 1716 pin box in 20K is part # RP34FR but you'll also need the Spacer Kit part # RP97FR. The Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for Ford Towing Prep Package part # RP30921 will then be correct for a 2017 Ford F-350 Super Duty with OEM Prep Pkg. You will also need the Sidewinder Wedge Kit for 20,000-lb Reese ELITE, M-Series, or ProSeries Fifth Wheel Trailer Hitches part # RP44FR but that's it.
