Hey Mike!
The Gen-Y Hitch Nomad 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - 1621,1116, 1716 # GY57ND uses the factory bolts that were on your Lippert pin box. You can reuse that hardware if in good shape still, but if you need new hardware you can get it locally at a hardware store. Gen-Y calls out the hardware size as 5/8” x 2” Grade 8 bolts and nuts, torqued to 160 ft lbs.
What kind of trailer is this going on, Mike?
