Best Fifth Wheel Adapter for Truck with B and W Gooseneck Hitch
Question:
I recently installed a BandW turnover ball in my 2014 Ram 2500 and I want to use the convert a ball cushioned 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter. Is there anything I should take into consideration such as warranty, compatibility issues, or anything like that?

You can use the Convert a Ball fifth wheel adapter with the B and W Gooseneck you have installed in your 2014 Ram 2500 without issue with the truck's warranty but typically these types of adapters will void the frame warranty of the trailer. Instead you'd be best served using the Companion hitch part # BWRVK3500 which fits in place of the gooseneck ball of your hitch and gives you what many refer to as the best fifth wheel hitch you can get. This does not void any warranties which makes it a really great choice!
