Can B and W Gooseneck Ball that Fits Ram OEM Rail Kit be Used with Convert a Ball Adapter
Question:
I have the bandw gooseneck ball kit for Ram factory prep kit. I wanted to convert my 5th wheel to gooseneck with the covert a ball offset adapter. I thought I read somewhere where it said not recommended for use with ball with handle like the one I have. Can you please confirm if I can use the convert a ball offset gooseneck adapter with the bandw goose neck ball. Thank you.

Expert Reply:
Since you have the B and W Gooseneck Ball part # BWGNXA2062 you can use the Convert a Ball Adapter part # CAB-C5GX1216 that you are wanting to use. The B and W ball you have doesn't have a latch on the top of the ball like the pop-in balls do which is the part that causes issues.
