Available Towing Adapters for Gooseneck and 5th Wheel Towing
Question:
I have a 06 dodge ram 2500 with the bandw hitch. My truck is a short bed, so which 5th wheel/goose neck adapter hitch could be used? Ive looked at the different ones you stock and need help in choosing.

Expert Reply:
If you have the B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1308 installed in your Ram 2500 the best option for converting this to a 5th wheel hitch is to install their matching Companion Slider Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # BWRVK3400. This 5th wheel hitch drops right in to your gooseneck ball hole and gives you a 20K rated hitch that is built to the highest industry standards.
I linked for you two articles that cover towing adapters for both gooseneck and 5th wheel trailers. Each of these articles addresses the adapters made for each hitch type.
