Is Offset Hitch Ball Needed For Gen-Y 5th Wheel to Gooseneck in Long Bed GMC Sierra 3500  

Thanks for the picture! That is exactly what I need to confirm what pin box your Forest River Shasta Phoenix 28RB has. I just spoke with my rep at Lippert and you have a 1621 pin box with an 18,000 lbs capacity. You will want the Gen-Y Hitch 5th…

The Curt CrossWing Lightweight 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part #C92DR is a great option for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. If you have the factory prep package then all you need is a gooseneck hitch ball like the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit…

The pin weight of a 5th wheel trailer will usually be around 20% of the trailer's gross trailer weight (GTW) rating. The only real way to find the loaded pin weight of your 5th wheel trailer would require access to a commercial scale used to…

Thanks for the pictures and congrats on the new trailer! You are correct the Gen-Y item #GY98GR would be the correct adapter for your Jayco Eagle. This system replaces the Lippert Rhino pin box and has the extra pin weight capacity you will need. I…

I spoke with my contact at Trailair and from your serial number we were able to determine that your trailer came with a 1621 HD pin box which is a long pin box style. I was unable to obtain the exact part number for your Trailair pin box but from the…

Hey David, from previous customers of ours who have the same 2020 Keystone Raptor 424 we have determined that your pin box style is the Lippert 1621 which means for a Gen-Y gooseneck adapter you'd want the #GY58GR that you referenced.

The factory prep package or pucks are not the same between Ram, GM and Ford. The spacing is all different which means you cannot use a 5th wheel hitch for Ram pucks on a GM with pucks. Take the Curt A25 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for example which is…

Installing ta Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter Pin Box like the #325-GH-8045 would not void the warranty of your camper, and Gen-Y makes some of the most durable parts on the market. I really like this as an alternative to…
