Replacement Head Assembly for Reese 27K 5th Wheel Hitch With Malfunctioning Indicator
Updated 01/05/2026 | Published 09/11/2024 >
Question:
I have a Reese 27k fifth wheel hitch for OEM ford f-350. I have had the product about 3years. There seems to issues with getting the clap to lock in. The red/green indicator keeps coming off. Is there a rebuild kit for it or can I buy just the top locking section to replace it?

Hey Geoff, thanks for reaching out!
I'm not seeing a rebuild kit for the 27K Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer # RP30922 so you'll want to get the Replacement Head Assembly # RP30892 to fix the parts you're talking about.
Please note this does have a limited lifetime warranty so if this seems to be a manufacturing defect I recommend trying to take advantage of that.
