Will the Blue Ox Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter Work w/ Factory Puck Systems?
Question:
I have a 2022 F250 with the OEM gooseneck. It is a short bed? Would this unit work?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Blue Ox Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter item # BLU52XR will work with the gooseneck ball that comes with your Ford F-250's OEM puck system.
However, it will not help with the clearance you will need to make tight turns and back up with your short bed truck. A way better option would be to use the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch item # BWRVK3370. The Companion has a 20,000 lbs capacity, will fit in your puck system, and gives you 12" of travel for backing and turning.
