Hi Rick,

Yes, if your Forest River Cedar Creek is equipped with the factory Lippert Rhino pin box, then the B and W part # BW55RV Shock Absorbing Gooseneck Pin Box is a direct replacement and an excellent option for converting your fifth wheel to a gooseneck connection.

One of the biggest advantages of this pin box is that it gives you a completely open truck bed when you're not towing while also improving ride quality. Its dual axis cushioning works to reduce both the up and down bounce and the front to back chucking you can feel on rough roads, and the built in SumoSprings help absorb road shock without requiring any maintenance or adjustment. The large funnel shaped coupler also makes lining up with the gooseneck ball much easier, especially if you're hooking up by yourself.

I'd be curious, are you making the switch to a gooseneck primarily to free up your truck bed, or are you also hoping to improve the ride quality while towing?
