Adapter Recommendation for Truck with Gooseneck Hitch for Using Curt Fifth Wheel Hitch
Question:
Im getting a different truck and most of them have a pop-up ball in the bed. I have a Curt A20 slider from you that I really like. But, I may sell that to get a lighter hitch and dont need the slider anymore. Wondering what options I have for using the existing gooseneck ball with fifth wheel. I have an air ride hitch on my 14225 GVW trailer so I cant put a gooseneck adapter on trailer. Thank you

Expert Reply:
If the trucks you are considering have a Curt gooseneck hitch installed you could use the part # C16220 if it's their EZr style hitch or part # C16210 if it's their double lock.
Or if it's a B and W hitch you can use the part # 16310 and you'd have a set of fifth wheel base rails that will work with your Curt A20 slider hitch.
If the hitch is any other brand though there isn't an adapter solution that would work.
