Hey Shayne, yes the Gen-Y Hitch Nomad 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY57ND that you referenced would need the included spacers to install in place of a Lippert 1716 pin box as that pin box is 1/2 inch wider. What camper do you have? At this time the spacers need to be ordered separately with # GY76FR.

2014 Sandpiper 365 SAQ. So the spacer plates are included and do not need to be purchased separately correct?
