Question:
I have a 2019 Rockwood Signature 8289WS 5th Wheel with a Reese Revolution pin box. I don’t care for it. I am wanting to replace it with a more bounce absorption pin box. Unfortunately, I have read on a few forums that Forest River specifically had this pin box designed for them and there was no replacement… not sure if this is true. I then read that MORryde developed the Orbital pin box part RTPB77-1622-03 to replace the Revolution, but to no avail I cannot find that pin box. Can you assist me in this. I tow with a Chevrolet 2500 HD with the CURT A25 and S25 hitch system. v/r Michael

Hey Michael, at this time the unique bolt pattern of your current pin box does not have an aftermarket replacement. Maybe a more cushioned fifth wheel hitch could help but the A25 isn't a rough riding hitch generally speaking. You could look into some cushioned equalizers like the MORryde Alltrek part # MR29DR if you have a 35 inch wheelbase or the part # MR89DR if the wheelbase is 33 inch. These will do a great job smoothing out the ride quality.
