Bulldog Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter - Inner Tube - Round - 25,000 lbs
I am waiting for my trailer to be ready for pickup, but the unit fit my Pullrite universal type 3365 capture plate fit without any modifications. I did have to remove a few of the extra shims sent with the plate, but that is expected. Pulliam industries said I may need a 3317 plate. They also said the 3317 plate will work on just about any adapter with a kingpin. My hitch came with a 3365, so I tried to find an adaptor that would work. I was successful. The items ships raw steel and will be rusting when you receive it. I will paint it myself. I wish it was painted at the factory.
I ordered the Bulldog adapter because I believe their quality is good. The construction of the Bulldog hitch adapter was good. However, the 4” tube was not perfectly round, approximately.030 out of round. This shouldn’t have been an issue, but since my trailer is used and had a Temco hitch originally, the tube wouldn’t slip in. I chucked the Bulldog in the lathe and skimmed .030 of the diameter and it went right in. This review is not written to criticize Etrailer or Bulldog. Just be aware if you’re working with a different brand hitch other than what is listed, there is a possibility of fitment issues.

Great product, fast shipping, excellent communication, definitely recommend these guys!! We painted the square tube/king pin tube red and installed it. Works great, but there is not much of it to see in the pic. Take my word, well built & very heavy duty!!
