What is Difference Between RP61301 and RP97FR Pin Box Spacers
Updated 12/01/2025 | Published 11/27/2025
Question:
I will be installing a 3rd gen 20K goose box on my 5th wheel with lippert 1716. I need a spacer. What is the difference between the rp61301 and the rp97fr? Both have holes to line up with my 1716. I see reviews for the slightly cheaper rp61301 where they used it for the goose box. Thanks

Hey Kenneth, this is a great question but basically the part # RP97FR is the updated version of the # RP61301 which allows it to fit more pin boxes but both work with the 1716 that you have.

Thanks for the clarification! I had already ordered the RP61301 after seeing that you sell a kit including the 3rd Gen 20k goose box and that version of the spacer kit for a 1716 trailer.
