Our new Keystone Hideout has a chucking problem and lots of folks have recommended the mor ryde pin box...
I am very interested in buying one, but I am already riding a few inches high with the hitch at the lowest point and the factory pin box all the way up.
Can anyone tell me if the Mor Ryde pin box would raise the trailer even more???
The axles are under the springs so flipping is not an option....already there.
Thanks in advance
Before spending $700+ on a pin box, take a good look at how you are set up.
While nose high is not a good thing, lets put that last on the list for now.
#1. What is your percentage of pin weight? Requires a trip to the scales. 1st trip through with 5er in tow, get TV front, TV rear, and trailer axles. Then drop the 5er and scale the TV again TV front and TV rear.
(TV loaded front + rear) - (TV unleaded front + Rear) = Pin
Pin + Trailer axles = 5er total weight
then pin/5er total weight = pin percentage
Your pin percentage should be at least 20%, if less could be part of the chucking issue.
#2. Shocks!
Does your TV have great shocks? Bilstein's Rancho's or similar?
Does your 5er have shocks? If not watch it the next time you hit a bump in the road, if it bounces more than once, shocks would make a difference.
#3. Nose high, just how nose high is your 5er, 2", 6' or more?
