Question:

I currently have a PullRite SuperLite 4P 20,000lb hitch. Id like to swap out the current pin box not sure of the model but it came with the 2018 Grand Design Reflection 337RLS. Would any additional parts be necessary to incorporate the upside-down ball required for the PullRite SuperLite. Thank you!

I spoke with someone over at PullRite who said that they have heard from customers that a standard pin box that doesn't have any cushion actually tows better with the PullRite SuperLite 4P 20,000lb hitch that you are using.

Since the hitch comes with an adapter for the king pin all that we need to know is the model number of your current pin box. This can actually be found on the pin box itself. There should be a sticker that has a series of numbers on it. It should reflect one of the following standard pin box part numbers:

1116 - # LC1270271
1716 - # LC1324791
1621 - # LC1191191
1621HD - # LC1191151
1621SHD - # LC1387882

If your pin box model number doesn't match one of the above numbers just let me know what your number is and I can help you find a solution.

To whom it may concern I own a Reflection 337RL and I tow with a 3500 crewcab short bed dodge. I would like to know if i bought an extend pin Box, and instead of using my pull right hitch that i have now, and replacing it with a Anderson Aluminum offset 5th fifth wheel hitch would that get me my 90 ?? Every article that I read tells me that they almost get a 90 maybe 85 would this work. Curiosity killed the cat.

The Reflection 337RL does have a bit of a tapered nose to help with turning clearance, so I think you could get pretty close to a 90 degree turn with the setup you mentioned. The Andersen adapter provides offset by itself as well. As for a full 90, that might still be tough. It's more likely that you'll just need to be careful when making those sharper turns. If you decide to go this route I recommend taking the trailer up to an empty parking lot to test out your clearances - take a buddy along and have him/her stand outside to give you the panic wave when the trailer nose gets dangerously close to the cab.
