Curt 5th Wheel Rails to Offset Gooseneck Ball Adapter With Reese Goose Box
Question:
Can the Bent Plate 5th Wheel Rail Gooseneck Hitch be used with the Reese Gooseneck RV Coupler?
asked by: Patrick H
Expert Reply:
Yes, the Curt Above-Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # 16055 can be used with a Reese Goose Box # RP85FR. Be aware that the gooseneck ball will sit a couple inches higher that a typical bed mounted gooseneck ball.
I recommend using a set of Fifth Wheel Rail Sound Dampeners # 16900 as well as Curt Safety-Chain Loops # C16000 with the hitch adapter. This will help quiet a bit of the noise and give you an easy location to connect your safety chains.
