Hey Boonie, congrats on the new trailer. The Shocker Hitch 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Coupler Kit item # SHK29YR may fit your Artic Fox but I need to know what bolt pattern your pin box has. What I'll need to identify it is the information on the sticker that's attached to your current pin box.

The sticker should say date of manufacture, weight capacity, and have some form of RPO, LCI, or serial number on it. If you could email me a picture of it or carefully put all that information where it says Reply to Jerred H, I can find the right gooseneck pin box for you. Also if yours says Turning Point or Rhino Box on it let me know because those bolt patterns are easy to identify replacements for.

You can add this information and any other questions you have where it says Reply to Jerred H and I'll be happy to answer them. If you're emailing me a picture go ahead and send it directly to the address you receive this response from.

@Boonie Yes, I did thank you for sending it to me! I just got off the phone with Lippert and your Artic Wolf has what's called a Rhino Pin Box. This is a more narrow style pin box so the only Shocker option I have is the Shocker Hitch 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Coupler Kit w/ Demco eZ-Latch item # SHK99YR. The Shocker item # SHK99YR is also a gooseneck pin box but this one has a built in air bag that is extremely helpful with eliminating road shock and chucking. The eZ-Latch is a great feature which snaps right to your truck's gooseneck ball as soon as you lower it. You will also need the BulletProof Hitches 3/8" Safety Chains item # BPH86RR. Safety chains are required for gooseneck connections and they are not included with the pin boxes. These will attach to that cross looking cutout by the Shocker Hitch logo. Let me know if you have any additional questions or would like a different recommendation!

@Boonie Check out the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item # GY33GR. It has a built-in torsion suspension system to absorb road shock and minimize chucking. There's no airbag to maintain or adjust.
