Expert Reply:
The best lightweight option we have to tow a fifth wheel trailer is the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # DM8550045 which will attach to a standard height gooseneck hitch ball, the Curt Pop-In Ball part # C60601. This is a great, secure option that would not require any adapters.
If you wanted to use the Andersen Ultimate Connection 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch System with Adapter part # AM3200 you'd need the Demco 5th Wheel Rail Adapter part # DM6206.
