Does anyone have any experience with the new Flex-Air pin box? I was just about to order a new Trailair Tri-Glide and I decided to contact Lippert and Heartland with my VIN to verify that my box is a 1621HD. Lippert responded "The Trail Air Tri-glide is no longer available and the replacement is the Flex Air part number 328492. This would be the replacement for the 1621 you have in your trailer." I can still get the Trailair Tri-Glide online so I
asked the Lippert rep which would be better and his response was "I would go with the Flex Air since it has less moving parts." I like the idea of the Tri-glide having both the air bag and the rollers. The Flex-Air uses the air bag and the Rota-Flex pivoting head. My guess is there will be less maintenance with the Flex-Air, but will it help with chucking as much as the Tri-Glide? Does anyone have the Rota-Flex pin box on there coach? If so are you happy with it? Does it help with chucking? By the way the Flex-Air is about $400 cheaper than the Tri-Glide. Here is a picture of the new Flex-Air.
