Is the Inner Tube Portion of Bulldog Gooseneck Coupler, Part # BD0289500300 Available Separately- We do offer just the inner tube portion for Bulldog # BD0289500300 gooseneck coupler. That part # is BD1289050300. I do see that you have already ordered the entire gooseneck coupler, part # BD0289500300. Given that your original coupler could potentially have hidden damage or have been weakened by the accident, your decision to replace the entire unit is the right choice for safety reasons.

Are There Any A-Frame Trailer Couplers That Do Not Require Welding For Installation- All of the A-Frame Trailer Couplers are a weld-on application. There is not a way to hookup a temporary coupler to tow the trailer.
What you could do, like you said, is have a qualified welder come out and install a replacement coupler on your trailer. The other option would be to have a towing company trailer the trailer to a professional and have a new coupler welded on.

Replacement Shock and Push Rod for a Titan Model 60 Trailer Disc Brake Actuator- It does sound like the shock is not returning. We do carry the part you need.

Do You Have Adapters to Convert a Gooseneck Trailer to a Fifth Wheel- Yes, we have a couple different solutions that could solve your problem.
