Can You Switch From Demco Recon For Flatbed Gooseneck to Recon For Standard Gooseneck
Question:
Are the parts interchangeable between the hitches I have a demco recon for a flatbed recessed ball. And would like to convert it to a regular goose ball in a pickup bed

Yep, they sure are; since the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter for Recessed Ball # DM8550046 and the standard Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045 use the same hitch head, all you need is the base for the standard Recon. The correct part number for that is the following:
