Is There a Higher Rated Version of the B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter
Question:
Do they make one that can tow more weight
asked by: Anthony
Expert Reply:
The B&W Companion Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # BWRVK3500 is rated for up to 20,000 lbs but they do not offer an upgraded model. That said, this is pretty much the limit for gooseneck to 5th wheel adapters so if you need to tow a heavier trailer then you will need to go with either a solo gooseneck or 5th wheel hitch. There is the option of the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # DM8550045 but this only has a slightly higher 21,000 lb weight capacity.
