Solution for Chucking While Towing with Ranch Hitch Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter
Question:
We have a GMC 2500 diesel and a ranch goodesneck. We have chucking when going over bumps or bridges. Is there anything that can help that?

Expert Reply:
Sounds like you are using the Ranch Hitch part # AM3100 to convert a fifth wheel trailer to be towed by a goosneck hitch. This adapter is not cushioned at all. We do have the similar Convert a Ball part # CAB-C5G which is cushioned which would relieve some of the chucking you are experiencing.
Or if you have a standard gooseneck coupler and hitch setup you could replace it with a cushioned gooseneck coupler part # CG.
