The Reese 5th Airborne Premium Fifth Wheel Air Ride Coupler, # RP78FR is a great replacement/upgrade and will work very well with the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ R16 Slider, # C16521. The air bag is located on top of the pin box instead of the bottom for easier adjustments. The airbag reduces chucking and vertical shock.

This is designed for use with Lippert 1621/1621HD, Lippert 0719, Fabex PB 600 Series, and Rhino Series pin boxes.
