Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Trailer Adapter Installation and Ride Quality for 2002 Chevrolet Silverado
Question:
The adapters that go from a gooseneck ball to fifth wheel do they bolt on the fifth wheel plate? and is there one that works better than the other? thanks

The Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Adapter, item # CAB-C5G, can bolt to the fifth wheel plate. There is a collar that is secured to the king pin and then locked into the adapter, but to bolt it on you would then have to drill the king pin plate and install 4 bolts, 4 washers and 4 nylon lock nuts. This model though does not have to be bolted on.
The fifth wheel adapters work for pulling your fifth wheel trailer but usually do not provide the ride quality and comfort that a fifth wheel hitch provides.
