    Reflection 150 Series Pin Box Replacement

    We are getting a Reflection 290BH and my preference would be to replace the pin box with a Reese Goosebox so that there is no hitch taking up space in the bed of the truck. The air ride feature would be nice too. It looks like the 150 reflection series has a different style of pin box mount. In my research it looks like the turning point hitch on the 150 series cannot be replaced. Has anyone actually changed out one of these turning point hitches? If it's not replaceable I will probably just go with the next most convenient option and get an Anderson ultimate since I already have the factory ball hitch in my 3500.

    Your wing plates for the Turning Point only have one row of mounting holes. Most all pin boxes have two rows of holes.

    Why not use the turning point feature. I have heard some excellent comments on it. Also in my opinion backing into a 5th wheel receiver is a heck of a lot better than trying to hit the goose neck ball on the nose. I know as I have both types of trailers. Just my 02 here.

    Hope you find a solution to what you want to do

    With the Anderson you just look out your rear window and back right up to it, never been an issue for me anyway. Drops right into place everytime. The red adapter allows you to be up to 3" off the ball and it will still slide in.

    Pretty sure we are stuck with the pin boxes on the 150 series...

    There is nothing that can replace the Turning Point hitch at this time. It is a unique frame.
