MORryde Rubber Pin Box RPB77-FD-05 - Revolutionary Fifth Wheel Towing System
Experience the smoothest fifth wheel towing you've ever had with the MORryde Rubber Pin Box RPB77-FD-05. This revolutionary pin box system is specifically designed to replace the Lippert Rhino 14-001 pin box on heavy-duty fifth wheels with a GVWR between 14,001 and 18,000 lbs, delivering a jerk-free, chuck-free ride that transforms your towing experience.
If you're tired of the uncomfortable jerking and chucking that comes with traditional rigid pin boxes, especially on larger fifth wheels, the MORryde Rubber Pin Box changes everything. Its patented rubber shear spring technology absorbs road shock and eliminates the troublesome aspects of towing, making every trip smoother and more enjoyable.
Why Choose the MORryde Rubber Pin Box RPB77-FD-05?
The MORryde Pin Box creates a smoother ride and eliminates the troublesome aspects of towing fifth wheels by greatly reducing chucking and jerking on all types of road conditions. The rubber shear springs act as cushions, effectively reducing road shock while maintaining full horizontal planar motion. This means you'll experience significantly less wear and tear on both your fifth wheel and tow vehicle, while enjoying a more comfortable ride that makes towing actually enjoyable.
Unlike air-lifted springs that can leak or shock absorbers that need replacement, the MORryde rubber pin box has a long component life with continuous performance. Installation is simple and takes about an hour on most fifth wheels, with no maintenance required after installation. For heavy-duty fifth wheels in the 14K-18K weight range, this is the ultimate upgrade.

How It Works
The MORryde Rubber Pin Box uses patented rubber shear spring technology that fundamentally changes how forces transfer between your fifth wheel and tow vehicle. When you hit bumps, potholes, or uneven road surfaces, the rubber shear springs compress and absorb the shock instead of transmitting it directly to your truck. This cushioning effect eliminates the jarring chucking sensation while still allowing the pin box to maintain proper horizontal movement for safe turning and maneuvering. For heavy-duty fifth wheels in the 14K-18K range, this technology makes a dramatic difference in ride quality.

💡 Helpful Tip: Choose a pin box based on your trailer's GVWR and the original pin box model you're replacing. The RPB77-FD-05 is ideal for heavy-duty fifth wheels between 14,001-18,000 lbs. If your trailer is lighter, consider the RPB77-FD-04 (11,501-14,000 lbs) or RPB77-FD-03 (under 11,500 lbs). MORryde rubber pin boxes offer superior vibration dampening compared to rigid pin boxes, while air suspension systems provide adjustable ride height but require more maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the MORryde Rubber Pin Box reduce chucking?
The patented rubber shear spring technology absorbs up to 3 inches of fore/aft movement and 1.5 inches of lateral movement, cushioning the transfer of forces between your fifth wheel and truck. This eliminates the jarring back-and-forth motion that causes chucking, especially important on heavier fifth wheels.
Will this fit my fifth wheel with a Lippert Rhino 14-001 pin box?
Yes, the RPB77-FD-05 is specifically designed as a direct replacement for Lippert Rhino 14-001 pin boxes on fifth wheels with a GVWR between 14,001 and 18,000 lbs. It's engineered to bolt right in place of your existing pin box with the included hardware.
What's the difference between the RPB77-FD-05 and other MORryde pin boxes?
The RPB77-FD-05 is designed for the heaviest fifth wheels with GVWR between 14,001-18,000 lbs. The RPB77-FD-04 is for 11,501-14,000 lbs, and the RPB77-FD-03 is for trailers under 11,500 lbs. All use the same rubber shear spring technology but are engineered for different weight capacities. Always choose the model that matches your trailer's GVWR.
How long does installation take?
Installation typically takes about one hour on most fifth wheels. The process is straightforward and can be completed by most RV owners with basic tools, though professional installation is recommended for heavy-duty applications.
Does the rubber pin box require maintenance?
No, that's one of the major advantages of the MORryde system. Unlike air-lifted springs that can leak or shock absorbers that wear out, the rubber pin box requires no maintenance and delivers continuous performance throughout its long service life.
What's the difference between this and an air ride pin box?
The MORryde Rubber Pin Box uses solid rubber shear springs that never need adjustment or maintenance, while air ride systems use air bags that require monitoring and can develop leaks. The rubber system provides consistent, reliable performance without the complexity of air suspension.
Will this work with my truck's fifth wheel hitch?
Yes, the MORryde Rubber Pin Box works with all standard fifth wheel hitches. It replaces the pin box on your trailer side, not your truck's hitch, so it's compatible with any fifth wheel hitch system.
Can I use this on a trailer heavier than 18,000 lbs?
No, the RPB77-FD-05 is rated for trailers with GVWR between 14,001-18,000 lbs. Using it on a heavier trailer could compromise safety and performance. MORryde offers other models for heavier fifth wheels - contact us for recommendations.
Is professional installation recommended?
While many RV owners can install this themselves, professional installation is recommended for heavy-duty fifth wheels to ensure proper torque specifications and alignment. This ensures optimal performance and safety.
