Pin Box

Purchased an 05 Fifth wheel, it has an extended pin box. I have a long bed 3500 Cummins and don't really need the longer box. Would it be advantageous to replace with a straight down box, other than shorting entire rig by a couple feet.

Do I have to use water regulator

I have been using a water regulator on my hose for years. I would love to do away with it and have a normal shower. Do I really need to use a regulator, or is the plumbing in my FW strong enough to handle more than a dribble.
