ULTRA-FAB PRODUCTS
The beauty and reliability of the Trailair® air ride systems is their simplicity. The air ride pin box acts as a buffer, arresting the transfer of road impact between the tow vehicle and the coach to produce smooth, stabilized towing performance.
Generally, a truck and a trailer connected by a ridged hitch system (basically any standard fifth wheel or ball connection) will tend to fight each other as you travel at highway speeds. The faster you go and the worse the road conditions, the more the ride quality suffers. Not only are you dealing with road forces from traveling down the road, but also additional forces are created as the two vehicles fight each other causing a "diving board" effect. The Trailair® coupler's unique scissor action allows the air spring to absorb these forces and dissipate them and for the shock absorber to handle the rebound effect. The result is an improved ride for the truck and it's occupants, the coach and its contents.

HOW TO DETERMINE WHICH PIN BOX CONVERSION YOU NEED:
Standard Pin Box Measurement Guide 5th Wheel Pin Box Identification...
A . Look on the pin box for identification of the pin box manufacturer. Atwood, Fabex, Lippert, Leland, RBW, Venture, Youngs Welding, etc...
B. Locate the model number. The number will be from three to seven digits, and can be alpha-numeric. Example Fabex mdl 520.
C. If a pin box manufacturer name or model number can not be located, get the last six digits of the Trailair 5th wheel serial number, call the coach manufacture and ask them what make and model pin box was installed on the coach.
D. If you can not acquire the information using the above mentioned methods get the following measurements and our customer service representative will help determine which pin box will fit your coach.
E. Measure the distance from the center of the pin to the center of the bolt holes vertically
F. Measure the width of the pin box
G. Measure the distance between the vertical holes (center to center)
