Recommended Adapter To Tow Gooseneck Trailer Using Fifth Wheel Bed Rails
Question:
I am looking for an adapter to attach to my 5th wheel rails to be able to pull a gooseneck trailer.

Expert Reply:
If you have standard fifth wheel hitch rails in your truck bed like Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley and Husky brand rails, then I recommend the Curt 25K Gooseneck Plate, part # 16055.
This plate has a 25,000-lb towing capacity, and it has a 2-5/16 inch hitch ball attached, and offers 4-inches of offset depending on how it is installed. I have attached a link to an installation video for this adapter you can check out.
