Are There Replacement Jaws for a 16K Reese 5th Wheel Hitch?
Published 08/13/2025 >
Question:
I have a Reese 16k dual jaw. Do you sell a kit that includes the jaws and jaw pivot pins and clips? Or is my only option to replace the head assembly? And do you still sell the upper head only, without the crossmember?

Hey Steve!
To replace the jaws on a Reese 16K dual jaw hitch you'll need the whole head kit # RP30047A as just the jaws aren't available.
The one thing to note though is that Reese has had a handful of 16K hitches in the past, so we'll need to make sure this is the same style that you have - otherwise we're looking at a new hitch altogether.
Is this is the same style hitch that you have?
