We have an option for you to tow your 5th wheel trailer with the Rhino pin box with your truck that has a gooseneck hitch, though there isn't a Goose Box that will be able to replace the Rhino pin box. The reason for that is the Goose Box is only a replacement for specific standard Lippert pin boxes. So instead, the best option we have is an adapter that attaches to your gooseneck ball:

- Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045

The Recon is a 5th wheel hitch that attaches directly to your truck's gooseneck ball, allowing you to easily and safely tow your fifth wheel trailer. The Recon is simple to install and convenient because it comes in two lightweight pieces, so you can easily remove the hitch for a clean, open truck bed when you come back from your trip.

The Recon, which has a 21,000 lb capacity, also has a superb single-piece jaw that wraps totally around the king pin, and is reinforced via a 3/4" solid steel bar that locks into place once the jaw is closed. This reinforced jaw system ensures you will have a smooth and comfortable ride while using the hitch.
