No, you can not use your gooseneck hitch with the B&W Patriot 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3270 slid forward. The hitch will interfere with the operation off the gooseneck so it will need to be removed every time you need to use the gooseneck hitch.
The head of the hitch is easily removeable by pulling the pins between it and the pivot arms. This will lighten the load a bit and make removing the hitch or reinstalling it more manageable.
