Can An Offset Hitch Ball Be Used On a 2019 Ford F-350 with Reese Goose Box
Question:
I have a 2019 F350 with 69inch bed and factory pucks. I am considering the Reese Goosebox, but am concerned about cab clearance. Is there a gooseball with offset that would make sense with this hitch? Something like the 5inch offset hide-a-goose?

Expert Reply:
The Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter part # RP85FR can be used on your 2019 Ford F-350 Short Bed but as you mentioned there will be some limitations to how sharp of a turn you can make. That said, there are no offset adapters for the factory prep package. Therefore, you would just need to be mindful of your turning clearance while using the Reese Goose Box.
The only other 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter that could work is the Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter part # CAB-C5GX1216 which does have a built-in 7-1/2" offset for increased cab clearance during turns.
