Reese revolution wedge bolt nut needs welded

[Capt_Dave]

Would it be possible to cut an access hole on the top of the box and weld the nut in place, then weld a cover plate over the access hole ? My dealer has had a new pin box ordered for 5 weeks and we are being told it will be another 2 weeks before it's built. So we don't know when it will get here. Thanks for any ideas

I haven't dealt with that pin box, but all of the YouTube videos show the wedge nuts are already captive.

I'm sure it is possible. Find a welder who knows his stuff. I've welded on a few fifth wheel hitch with no issues but obviously you want to be sure whoever does it is very trustworthy.
