Hey Nate! You actually can't use the # LC158778 since it is designed to replace a 1621. You have a Lippert 1116 so you need the Trailair Air Ride 5th Wheel Pin Box # LC155943. This is specifically designed to replace a Lippert 1116 5th-wheel pin box so there won't be any negative impact on your ride. The only thing you should expect is the improved ride quality from the internal air bag. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to reach out in the comments below.

Hey Nate, how did the Trailair Air Ride pin box work out on your Montana? I'm curious if the improved ride quality was noticeable once you got it on the road. Your feedback could really help others looking to upgrade from the Lippert 1116.
