Fifth Wheel Hitch Trailer to Gooseneck Ball Adapter Recommendation
Question:
What are all my options to go from my 5th wheel hitch to a ball? I have a kingpin to gooseneck adaptor with a Curt rail mounted above-bed ball. But Ive seen another adaptor on the kingpin that takes it to a ball fitting without the gooseneck extension. This hooked to an aluminum frame that mounted the ball in the bed, but up a couple feet, at the height that a 5th wheel hitch would connect. Do you have a product like this?

Sounds like you are referring to an Andersen Ultimate connection like the part # AM3200. We used to carry the version that went from gooseneck ball to a fifth wheel hitch but the version we have is basically just a fifth wheel hitch set up differently.
Best option we have would be the Convert a Ball # CAB-C5G which adapts a gooseneck hitch to a fifth wheel trailer king pin.
