I am having a hard time finding the model number of my current Pin Box to know which Reese Goose Box is compatible. I have the Morryde Pin box Part # RPB72-FD but I can't find the model number of that. I see similar part numbers in the conversion charts but not this exact one. Why you ask? I now have a flatbed with built in gooseneck ball. Can anyone help?

On edit. Look on the pin mounting box (what the Morryde is attached to). There should be a Lippert tag. on the pin box. It could be hidden. If you call reese direct they also may have the answer.
Also on edit. What trailer do you have. Geese goose box only goes up to 20K. Your existing is rated 21K. There must be a reason for that. Maybe that is the reason there is no cross reference. However I did fins this https://www.morryde.com/wp-content/u...rt-2021_v4.pdf You might give MorRyde a call to see what pin boxes you current one fits.Last edited by Yoda; 12-01-2023, 02:54 PM.2018 Reflection 150 Series 220RK 5th whee, Star White 2022 F350 King Ranch CC Long bed (HAL) (CCC 4062lbs), B&W 25K OEM Companion,.

Thanks Yoda, I'll look for the tag on the pin box. It's dark when I get home so maybe it's there and I just can't see it. This is a Mo 397THS. On that chart you posted there is something close but not the exact one. I'll try and call GD next week if I can. I'm not in a hurry to do this, just getting the research done. Plus there are some decent Christmas sales going on now.2022 GD Momentum 397THS

Have you tried calling Reese? Maybe they have a cross reference for that model number.
Also double check and have the serial number of the pin box handy should you need to call MorRyde.Joseph

I had one of these on my camper and sold it when I got my new truck. It was pretty cool. My impression was, that there was Lippert and then there was everyone else. Check out the diagram with bolt hole measurements. You might be able to determine if it will fit based on this drawing. But like Yoda said If your campers GVWR is 21K this might be a problem.1 PhotoTrib

All I am really trying to say is measure carefully. Reese shows all of thier possible adjustments in thier installation instructions and has the unit measurements too.

Just trying to help make an informed decision. If Reese had a goose box for my turning point housing I would probably have gone that way.2018 Reflection 150 Series 220RK 5th whee, Star White 2022 F350 King Ranch CC Long bed (HAL) (CCC 4062lbs), B&W 25K OEM Companion,.

If you have the OEM puck system, verify your ball height against something like the 1" rise one to see if it will provide any extra clearance.

I avoided the goosebox and any other variants as you loose misalignment hitching along with you have to crawl under the neck to hook up the chains and latch the coupler (some couplers have extensions).
Also as mentioned Reese is the only one known to not void the frame warranty.Joseph
