Which Wedge Kit Is The Best For A Lippert Turning Point Pin Box And B&W Patriot Fifth Wheel Hitch
Question:
If turning point makes a universal wedge for all 5th wheel hitches. Why do I need to buy one for my bw patriot? Your statement doesnt make sense to me. Explain please.

Expert Reply:
The Replacement Wedge Block for Lippert Turning Point Pin Box # LC79UD is a universal wedge that has been confirmed to fit both the Lippert Turning Point pin boxes and B&W fifth wheel hitches. If you bought a trailer secondhand and didn't have the wedge kit with it or switch hitches somewhat routinely then this would be the best option for you.
If you plan on sticking with a B&W Patriot # BWRVK3255 then the custom fit wedge # SWW-06 would be the better choice. The custom fit design will better fit the funnel of the hitch and provide a tighter fit for less play than a universal wedge kit.

Tried to use the SWW-06 with my Turning Point pin box and B&W hitch but could not get the jaws to close. It seemed to be about 1/4 - 1/2" short of closing. Tried 4 separate times, slightly adjusting my approach angle but no luck.
