Gooseneck Hitch to Fifth Wheel Trailer Adapter for a Flatbed Truck
Question:
I am looking to buy a gooseneck to fifth wheel adapter. We have a flatbed truck with a recessed platform from which the ball hitch sits on. Is there any way I could get an e-mail address to someone there so that I could send two pictures? One of the recessed hitch and one of the fifth wheel towing tongue. I have one of your products in mind to buy but dont want to have to return such a heavy item in case it doesnt work. I would like someone to give me some advice as to the likelihood this adapter will work for me.

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Ranch Hitch Adapter part # AM3100 that you referenced will work on a flatbed truck that has a recessed gooseneck hitch ball. However, since your setup is recessed I would go with the Convert-A-Ball adapter, # CAB-C5G instead as it can be adjusted taller.
I attached a review video for this adapter for you to check out as well.
