Expert Reply:
The Convert-A-Ball Cushioned 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Adapter comes in a standard version part # CAB-C5G and an offset version part # CAB-C5GX1216. The offset version cannot be adapted to the standard version and vice versa. If you have a short bed truck then most likely you'd need the offset version but if you have a long bed truck then you can go with the standard version. That said, it is always best to measure beforehand to confirm.
