by: Clinton03/04/2022
Arrived undamaged. As described. Fit well. Installed & used same day as delivery. Converted a RV Pin hitch to the 2 5/16" ball hitch we have on the other gooseneck trailers on the farm.
Was a little hard to find on the web page. Found it on my phone while out in the field at the sale with a general internet search. Back at my laptop, kinda found it buy "hunt & peck", as no search criteria seemed to match what we were looking for. Found it in the end, was a toss-up between this and the shorter model, decided to spend the extra money for more adjustment possibilities.

Fit perfectly was just what I needed, I like how it was ready to paint with the stickers already taped off. I mounted it on the trailer painted it black then peeled off the tape to show the stickers underneath works smoothly great quality.
by: Scott E05/05/2017
Very nice gooseneck coupler. Fit perfectly in my Kaufman Mini 5 trailer. Welds were very good quality. Built by someone that knows what they are doing

See what our Experts say about this Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler
- Adjustable Height Gooseneck Coupler Recommendation for an Older Ponderosa Horse TrailerActually you would want to go with a Pro Series Gooseneck Coupler # PS0287820300 instead. This is an adjustable gooseneck coupler that will give you 8 inches of adjustability. This coupler has the same diameter tube as what you have. You would just need to have the old one removed and this one welded in it's place. If in the shortest position of this coupler it would still be too tall in the front you could remove a portion off the top of the coupler so that it would be the correct height....
view full answer... - Replacement Inner Tube For B&W Gooseneck With Lock IncludedI recommend the B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler Base Assembly, part # BWGNC4250 for your trailer. This is the inner tube with the base that will work with the outer tube. This inner tube has a built-in lock and has 2 keys included. The tube diameter is 4 inches and it has a weight capacity of 25,000-lbs.
view full answer... - Recommended Gooseneck Coupler With 4-1/2 Inch Tube That Works With 2-5/16 Inch BallWe offer one gooseneck coupler that has a 4-1/2 inch outer diameter inner tube. The coupler we offer is part # BD0287690300. This works with a 2-5/16 inch ball and has a height of 33 inches. The capacity of this coupler is 20,000-lbs.
view full answer... - Is There an Inner Tube for a Gooseneck Coupler That's 4.5" Diameter The Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler part # BD0287690300 is an inner tube for a gooseneck coupler with an outer diameter of 4-1/2". This is actually the only option we offer with this size diameter for the inner tube only. The vast majority are 4" diameter for the inner tube and 4-1/2" diameter for the outer tube.
view full answer... - Can Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler BD0287610300 be Rotated if Outer Tube Holes are on FrontActually it looks like your coupler uses set screws to stay in position and not a pin like # BD0287610300. So you would actually want the coupler to go in like normal, with the handle on the driver's side, so the set screws make contact with the solid metal and not slip into any of the holes. If those are set screws then I recommend using coupler # BD0287690300 which doesn't have any holes in it. If they are pins that go all the way through the tube and not set screws then you can rotate...

- Recommendation for 4-1/2 Outer Diameter Inner Tube for Gooseneck Trailer Coupler We have one gooseneck coupler inner tube that is 4-1/2 inches in diameter: # BD0287690300. You could trim the coupler some but on a 33 inch tall coupler like this if you wanted to shave off like 20 inches that would be way too much. How much are you needing to trim off? I can run the amount by my Bulldog contact and see if it is acceptable.
view full answer... - Gooseneck Trailer Couplers with Both the Outer and Inner TubesIt sounds like you want a gooseneck coupler that includes both the outer and inner tubes. The outer tube is permanently welded to the trailer and the inner tube is the adjustable part with the coupler. We have several options, see link below. The most popular is Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler - Adjustable - Round - 2-5/16" Ball - 30,000 lbs Item # BD0289500300. We also have some square tube options such as # BD1289140300.
view full answer... - Gooseneck Coupler Recommendation to Fit 4 inch Outer TubeIf you are sure the inner diameter of your outer tube is 4 inches we have the Convert A Ball Cushioned gooseneck coupler part # CG that would work well. This coupler has an outer diameter of 4 inches so it would work well for you. It can also be used with set screw outer tubes like you have.

- Replacement Inner Tube Recommendation for a Gooseneck Trailer CouplerA better solution for you would be the part # BD0287690300 then. This pipe has an outer diameter of 4-1/2 inches so you will need to make sure your current outer tube is compatible with this one. This is basically the same as the # PS0287800300 except without the outer tube.
view full answer... - Can the B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler Be locked in the Open Position?To leave your coupler unlatched you will need a manual locking coupler like the Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler # BD0287690300. The B&W Defender Locking Gooseneck Coupler # BWGNC4250 will only lock in the closed position. Using the manual locking coupler will make it easier for you to use with your skid steer to move around your farm.
view full answer... - Can Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler # BD0287690300 Fit Outer Tube with Set ScrewsAs long as the outer tube on your trailer has an inner diameter of 4-1/2 inches to match the Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler # BD0287690300 this will fit and work well with what you have now that uses set screws.
view full answer... - Replacement Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for Hanover TrailerYou would want to just remove the tubing and replace it with a setup that includes an inner and outer tube setup like the part # GCPN-25008. A fabricator would have no problem removing the old setup and attaching this.
view full answer... - Bulldog Inner Tube Gooseneck Coupler Availability that is 4 inches In DiameterSince you need a 4 inch diameter pipe the best option we have is the part # BD0287610300 as it has a 4 inch outer diameter whereas the # BD0287690300 that you referenced would be too wide at 4-1/2 inches. Or the part # CG would work too as it is 4 inch diameter and has no pin holes.
view full answer... - Gooseneck Trailer Coupler Inner Tube Only with 4 Inch DiameterThe 4-1/2 inch diameter is correct. The gooseneck coupler # BD0287690300 is not designed to fit inside of another tube because it is meant to be welded directly to a trailer. So it was built with the 4-1/2 inch diameter all the way down. For a 20K inner tube only that does fit inside another tube and has a 4 inch diameter we have # BD0287610300 and # BD1289170300. We also have other capacities, each with a 4 inch diameter outer tube that I have linked for you. The only one in the list...
view full answer... - Availability of Replacement Gooseneck Inner Tube Coupler with 4-1/2 DiameterThe only replacement gooseneck coupler inner tube that we carry which has the 4-1/2" outside tube measurement is the Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler # BD0287690300. This is a round coupler that has a weight rating of 20,000 lbs and fits over a 2-5/16" hitch ball. If instead you have a square coupler the only option we have to offer is an entire replacement like with th Ram # GCSQ-25008 which is rated for 25,000 lbs and a 2-5/16" hitch ball. This comes with both the inner and outer tubes which...
view full answer... - Replacement Inner Tube Recommendation for Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler that Uses Set ScrewsI believe what you are looking for is actually the part # BD0287690300. This coupler tube is 4-1/2 inches in overall diameter and is designed to have set screws secure it in place to the outer tube. I can't recommend the B and W you mentioned for that.
view full answer... - Best Option for Adapting Fifth Wheel Pin Box to GooseneckThe easiest option would be the Convert a Ball adapter part # CAB-C5G which can either bolt or weld to the pin box on your trailer and give you a gooseneck coupler. I attached an install video for this adapter for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Replacement Inner Gooseneck Trailer Coupler Tube that Doesnt Use Load Bearing PinsAs far as an inner tube only, the BX1 coupler # BD1289170300 is the only option. It sounds like you need one that is held in the outer tube with set screws such as # CG or # BD0287690300. Coupler # CG has a 4 inch diameter tube and # BD0287690300 has a 4-1/2 inch tube. The other option is to replace both the outer and inner tube with # BD1289040300, # BD1289030300, # BD1289000300, # BD1289080300, # BD1289070300, or # BD1289140300. These are all BX1 couplers for 2-5/16 inch balls and...
