Recommended Gooseneck Pin Box to Replace a MORryde Standard Pin Box

Updated 06/14/2026 | Published 05/31/2026

Question:

We have just bought our 2026 vengeance 4413 toyhauler which came from the factory with the moryde pin box but im interested in going to a goose neck connection but im unsure which brand to go with. I was looking at the new bandw conversion but my pin weight is in the middle of the specs on the versions that are available. The gvw of our rig is 20k and the pin weight is around 3800 to 3900lbs with our stuff loaded. In need of advice please

Hey Josh congrats on the new toy hauler! The answer to your question entirely depends on what bolt pattern your MORryde cushioned pin box is designed for. Forest River does not post those specs online so I am going to need some information from you. Each bolt pattern has specific tongue weight ranges and capacities and I want to make a solid recommendation for you not a guesstimate.

There's going to be a sticker that's attached to the brackets above the MORryde 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 Add Comment, I can find the right gooseneck pin box for you. Also if yours says Rhino Box on it let me know because those bolt patterns are easy to identify replacements for.

How long is your Silverado's truck bed and do you have the factory puck system or an aftermarket gooseneck hitch? Gooseneck pin boxes like the B&W you referenced don't help with turning clearance so I want to make sure you're not going to have any issues swapping out your standard pin box.

Hi jarred Sorry for the delay in replying to you the frame sticker number is RPO 0015838531 The dry weight of the rig is 15130 and the GVWR is 19900. The pin box that is on it currently is part number RPB72FD. My silverado has the 8ft bed with the oem puck system installed from the factory the current fifth-wheel hitch i have is a curt A20

@JoshF No, worries at all on the delay Josh. Thanks for that part number! The RPB72FD is designed for a Rhino pin box. The B&W 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item # BW55RV is going to be the correct model for your 2026 Vengeance 4413. It's got a 25,000 gross capacity and works with pin weights up to 4,500 lbs. These pin boxes aren't even out yet so we haven't gotten a chance to actually compare how well they work. On paper they've got some pretty good specs though. We're pretty excited about B&W jumping into this market. The B&W item # BW55RV uses a rubber SumoSpring to absorb road shock while also reducing chucking and jarring. It has dual axis cushioning which not only absorbs up and down movement but also front to back movement. It comes with the safety chains and new mounting hardware too, which is unheard of amongst the other competitors offerings. The Gen-Y Hitch item # GY45GR is the only other shock absorbing gooseneck pin box I would recommend. These have been around for many years and do a great job of preventing chucking and softening out your ride. It uses a torsion flex system similar to ones you find in axles or Gen-Y's ball mounts, if you're familiar with them. Instead of using airbags or sliding mechanisms, the hitch has heavy duty inner bars surrounded by rubber cords. When you encounter bumps, potholes, or stop and go traffic, the inner bars rotate slightly and compress the rubber cords. This prevents shock and jerking from passing back and forth between your Silverado and toy hauler. You will also need the Safety Chain with 2 Hooks for Gen-Y 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box item # GY49GR. 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 Gen-Y logo.
