Installation of B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler
Question:
Hello, Recently we received our TEXA400 10inch extender for our gooseneck trailer. The pin holes are side to side on the device but the pin holes on my trailer are front to back. Maybe I just am looking at it wrong but I cannot figure out how to install this on my trailer especially given the hole placements. There are a ton of videos but all showing the installation on the truck side. Maybe you have one from the trailer side? I am sure you can straighten me out... I am sorry if I am just not looking at this right. thanks for the help

Yourr trailer's coupler uses set screws to hold the tube in place instead of a cross pin. In this case you'll still use the set screws in the same fashion they're being used to install the Extend-A-Goose # BWTEXA4200 and you won't use a cross pin through the pin holes.
