I was going to go with a Trail Air pin box but because my truck sits so high, I've found it difficult to get my 5er to be level. Lippert confirmed for me that changing to an air enhanced pinbox would raise the trailer nose 1 or 2 inches more. Yes, I know I could mod springs etc. to raise the entire trailer, just didn't want to do that.
that's odd, I added a 5th airborne to my Lippert 1621 and once mounted my FW sat exactly like it did before with the factory pin box.
I used the same mounting holes for both pin boxes.
Actually your top picture is not a Tri-glide, it's the standard Trailair. The Tri-glide has the addition of a Demco type movable plate at the bottom.
