Turning point swivel change out

Can the Turning Point Swivel Pin Box be switched for a Trail Air (or similar)? I'm considering an air bag hitch as well instead of the B/W Companion to smooth the ride. Thanks!

Old Biscuit, I read that as the Turning Point is OEM install only and not purchased aftermarket, while the other ones can be purchased. This is what's behind my question in can it be replaced with something else without much fuss.

1960, the Turning Point is not being used as a turning point, but as a standard pin box, so the wedge isn't needed. The Trailer Saver is on my short list too.

Thanks

I know my buddy's TP pinbox on a GrandDesign cannot be replaced with a standard PB. Mounting is so different
