How To Tow a 5th Wheel Trailer Using B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
Hi! I am buying a 2013 F-350 which has a BandW turnover ball gooseneck hitch installed. What are my options for installing a 5th wheel hitch? I know there’s adapters, but I’m curious if there’s any other solutions and, if so, what those may be. Thanks in advance for your help!

In order to mount a fifth wheel hitch on a truck with B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch you can either use the B&W Companion Adapter part # BWRVK3500 or the Curt X5 5th Wheel Base Rails Adapter part # 16310 which will allow you to use any above bed mounted fifth wheel hitch like the Curt A16 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C16120.
