Question:
I just purchased a 2018 Jayco Eagle 25.5 REOK it has a Moyryde Part RTPB83-1622. I prefer a reese goose box to keep my bed clear and want to know if the 20k goose box would fit this 5th wheel. Looking at the 20k in case I go to a bigger 5th wheel in the future, I would swap the orginal morryde back on and keep the goose box.

Hey Trevor! The MORryde RTPB83-1622 uses the Lippert Turning Point bolt pattern. Unfortunately, this means the Reese Goose Box # RP85FR will not fit. If you want to replace the pin box the only option is the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - Lippert Turning Point - 21K # GY48GR.
The Gen-Y is a really great alternative to the Goose Box and uses torsion technology for shock absorption instead of an air bag. It looks like your GVWR is 9,995 lbs so the 3.5K pin weight model is what you need on your 2018 Jayco Eagle HT 25.5REOK. You will also need safety chains # GY49GR
