Helpful Expert Reply:
5th wheel pin boxes like the Reese Revolution and other fixed-type pin boxes mount to a set of vertical wings at the front of the 5th wheel. These wings are attached to the trailer frame structure and provide multiple holes to allow the height of the pin box to be adjusted. This adjustment range is just a few inches but is often enough to allow for leveling the trailer in cases where it is nose high. In such a case moving the pin box to a higher position on the mounting wings will let the trailer nose drop down a bit.
The Revolution pin box itself (also known as a Sidewinder in the aftermarket world) does not have height adjustment. Sidewinder pin boxes like the # RP34FR are made to directly fit as replacements for the most popular fixed pin boxes. The linked articles provide specifics on how to choose a Sidewinder that will fit in place of an OEM fixed pin box and how to maintain one for best performance.
