Recommended Solution for Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer with a Gooseneck Hitch on a 2008 Ford F-250
Question:
I have a 2008 F250 with a ball in the center of the bed of the truck. I am buying a 2003 Sportsmen 31 foot 5th wheel. Which of the goose neck adapters do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
I recommend going with the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045. This adapter installs directly on the gooseneck hitch ball and gives you one of the best 5th wheel hitch heads out there. It is rated for up to 21,000 lbs and features a double-pivot hitch head with a wraparound single-piece jaw with a 3/4" solit steel locking bar to give you a secure and comfortable towing experience.
Please note that this is not compatible with rotating pin boxes or high-rise gooseneck hitch balls. Attached is a review video for you to check out.
