Question:

Can you give me the measurement from front edge of gooseneck to the front edge of the front rail. I have a fuel/toolbox combo in a shortbed

In regards to the Demco 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitches part # DM6140, the distance from the center of socket which installs inside the gooseneck hitch ball opening to the edge of the rail is 14". Therefore, you'd need to measure from the center of gooseneck hitch ball opening back 14". There isn't an option which offers more room so if this does not work you'd be left with a new tank, the DeeZee Specialty Series Truck Bed Transfer Tank part # DZ92556N. The toolbox/fuel tank combos we offer are usually much too deep.
