MoRryde Orbital Pin box
Hello all, I'm new to this forum. I would like to say thank you, I have already learned a lot from looking through others posts.
My wife and I just purchased a new 2018 Jayco 30.5 CKTS. I'm posting this so it may help others resolve a issue with the MoRryde Orbital Pin box that came on our 30.5 CKTS. The stock wedge that comes with the pin box does not work (and if used is downright dangerous)with the Curt A16 (C16120) 5th wheel hitch. Looking on the web for a wedge to fit the MoRryde I found that they do not make one for the Curt A16. I did find that Curt makes a wedge #16992 for the Reese Sidewinder and the Turning Point. From what I found the Turning Point and the MoRryde Orbital are both made by Lippert, so I took a chance and ordered the Curt 16992 wedge with hopes it would work with the MoRryde Orbital. The wedge fit perfectly, the only difference was the wedge comes with course thread bolts and the MoRryde comes with fine threaded holes, you also have to be careful to not use to long of bolts in the MoRryde Orbital because you can damage the dampening mechanism. I hope this is not a redundant post, I did do a search and could not find anything related to this subject. Hope this helps others in the future. In the future before buying and installing a hitch I will look at compatibility.
Steve
