    Rhino Box Replacement - What Is The Heaviest Duty Cadillac Air Ride Model For My 398M

    2023 398M-R

    Came with the standard Rhino Box

    Trailer is too heavy Im afraid for a Reese Goosebox.

    There are SO many models of LCI air ride, which I understand to be the best replacement for the Rhino Box

    Whats the model I want to look for?

    The box holding the stock Rhino is an LCI 2021133860
    2023 GDRV 398 M-R
    2022 Cruiser South Fork (soon to be 'for sale')
    2019 F350 SRW 4x4 6.7 LB CC XLT
    2023 F450 4x4 CC Lariat (on order whenever Ford decides to make 'trucks' again)

    FWIW. I was recently told by GD that a cushioned pin box is not advised, as it voids the Lippert warranty.

    So basically anything aftermarket then is a warranty killer it sounds like.

    I thought the only air cushioned approved option was a goosebox at a max load of 20K pounds. I dont know if that has changed with the new Gen3 Goosebox that bolts up to the rhino frame(s). But I know Reese made the Gen3 for that reason to bolt to that frame, so it I feel like it has to be supported and does not void the warranty (Goosebox). Cant comment on the other pin-boxes.

    Seeing these GenY as standard on the Brinkley toy haulers. I believe there are options to accommodate up to 5500 lb pin weight.
