Question:
I have a bulldog gooseneck hitch part number 947533 and need a mounting kit to fit a 1997 f350. The hitch is rated for 30,000 Im having a hard time getting a mounting kit for that rate.

Expert Reply:
So the now-discontinued Bulldog gooseneck 947533 will not fit your 1997 Ford F-350 unfortunately, as there isn't a mounting kit of any weight capacity that will allow it to fit your truck. So the best option available is a new gooseneck hitch with a 30,000 lb capacity.
So long as you do not have the Cab and Chassis or 34 inch frame I recommend the following
- B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with Custom Installation Kit # BWGNRK1110
The B&W is the best hitch due to the square base of the hitch ball which results in no movement, and is widely considered to be the best gooseneck hitch in the industry. I have added a link below to a video review for you to check out as well.
