I have a problem not with the new truck but now I’m to tall. I am now 13ft 7in tall, I want to be a inch or two less. I have a B&W hitch that’s at the bottom. I have 20in tires. The camper is a Cedar Creek fifth wheel. I have a TrailAir pin box. I noticed today that when I let the air from the bladder the camper dropped. Does anyone know that if I trade pin boxes for a MoRyde will that lower my trailer height. Right now I have 8 1/2 inches between the truck rails and camper. Any help would be appreciated. I realize this is a Keystone forum but the new 2020 Silverado 3500 is like a tank. I can’t imagine the new Silverado being a dually on the county roads I live on

Why not raise the pin box just one set of holes.

The pin box can’t be raised up up, at least I haven’t found any more holes. I looked for more bolt holes.

Going with Anderson hitch you could lower the ball 3 inches lowering you camper. I have the ball pined on the lowest hoe I’m at 4 inches from the bed pulling 20 k miles in all kind of terrine and never have bumped the rails .

I like my B&W hitch besides I just paid $460.00 for the B&W base. I have looked at the Anderson hitch but I have always liked my B&W, if I need to take the hitch out I just leave the hitch on the pin box

Bye the way does the Anderson hitch fit the OEM puck system on the Silverado

As long as you have the ball for the center hole.

I know that people that have Anderson hitches love them and I may have to get one. I like my B&W, I was asking about a pin box.

I may have found my problem. I took my Cedar Creek back to the factory because the front cap had faded in 2016 and I saw the TrailAir there at the factory. I asked the price and was told $240.00 installed. The people that installed the hitch must not have ever installed a pin box before because they put a bolt in every hole. I’m calling a local RV dealership today and see if they can install the pin box right.

How many bolts on each side? Should be minimum of four, up to six on a heavy 5er.

I have a appointment at Carolina RV in Myrtle Beach S.C. on Tuesday next week to fix it or tell me what I have to do.
