We would like to purchase the adapter for the MORryde pin box to a Anderson hitch. Model number is RPB77-006. The picture on line shows it is not painted. Is that correct?? Thanks.

Hello David,
Welcome to etrailer, I'm glad you found us!
The picture is not correct on the product page for the 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Coupler Adapter Mounting Plate for MORryde Pin Boxes # MR37ZR. Our part number # MR37ZR is MORryde's part number RPB77-006.
MORryde previously offered this plate as bare steel, but they have since updated it to come with a powder-coated finish, so you won't need to worry about painting it yourself. I've attached an image so you can see what the painted version looks like.
This plate is designed to reinforce your MORryde pin box when using an Andersen Ultimate Connection hitch.
Do you already have the Andersen Hitch?

My adapted was black and did not need to be painted. Worked very well.

My plate came painted; not sure I would classify it as powdercoated. It is reinforced somewhat over the factory Morryde plate, but not as much as I would have hoped. The main benefit comes from the four new poly blocks which keep the plate from trying to rotate. My only real complaint is that they should have offset the pin by 4". Since the Anderson adapter moves the connection centerline by roughly 4", it will either move your pivot point back 4" or forward 4" depending on which way you set it. I had mine back 4", but then the back of the pin box wanted to contact the bedsides during tight u-turns. I ended up setting mine in the 4" forward position which fixed that issue, and luckily my Arctic Fox as a sculpted nose to allow for extra clearance. You most likely wouldn't be able to do that with a square nose trailer.

It came painted black, worked great with the PullRight SuperLite. i felt the PullRite was better built and I really liked the "release mechanism" on the PullRite.

Black as black can be. Just like the one already there that's removed with this installation. This basically eliminates the majority of the movement of the pin box, as little as there is.
