Hello Caleb, thanks for reaching out. We certainly should have a replacement pin box option for you, but the Curt Rota-Flex pin box can use of several different bolt patterns, so I will need a bit more information from you in order to recommend the correct replacement.
Specially I will need to know the pin box size or bolt pattern that your current pin box uses. There may be a sticker on your pin box that says the serial number and model number. This sticker may also indicate the bolt pattern. If not, we should be able to use the SN and model number to determine the size.
If no sticker is present, you can use the guide I linked below to measure the bolt hole spacing and determine the size. Drop that info in the comments below when you have it and I am happy to look into it and make a recommendation.
