Andersen’s Rota-Flex Lockout Kit is required when using an Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection with any Rota-Flex pin box to prevent damage to the hitch and/or tow vehicle. It also keeps the rubber pad in your Rota-Flex pin box from shifting over time. This kit is designed to fit most Rota-Flex pin boxes, but there are a few newer models that need longer steel bars. If you need an extended kit, select Extended Rota-Flex lockout kit (part # 3247-XTD).
