Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter - Single Jaw - 21,000 lbs
The Demco Recon is an incredible hitch! I originally bought a much cheaper hitch adapter from (another site). Regretted it the moment I used it for the first time, it terrified me and I thought I was going to destroy my truck and trailer. Luckily, that crumby adapter made me look harder for a much better alternative, which is when I landed on the Demco Recon. I was a little nervous at first about making sure that I had ordered the correct hitch for my gooseneck, but after looking at the FAQs and Customer photos here on etrailer, I felt confident in my purchase. When it arrived, it was very simple to install in the bed of my truck, I watched a couple of different videos on YouTube to make sure I installed it correctly. (The printed instructions don't mention what to do with the blue silicon bung). But otherwise install was very quick. My first trip with the Demco was also my first time ever towing a fifth wheel trailer and we did nearly 800 miles. The wrap around lock on the kingpin gave me assurance that I had made full contact with the kingpin. The hitch was secure and worked amazingly well. I'd highly recommend this hitch to anyone who is looking for an adapter. I never felt uneasy or questioned the hitch.
Very nice hitch. Easy to install and the height adjustment makes it easy to adjust the height of the trailer.

Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter for Recessed Ball - Single Jaw - 21,000 lbs
Shipper dropped box, chipped some paint, and pin is missing. Other than that, smooth process from order to delivery. No fault to trailer at all. Seems like a well built rugged hitch!
Hitch fit great. Bradford built mustang flatbed. I did see people having issues with the hitch rotating. I added a 7/16 x 2"bolt to prevent that from happening.

Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - Lippert Turning Point - 21K - 3.5K TW
Great replacement for the Curt Turning Point pin box! Easy to install and took a couple hours since I did it by myself. I had to purchase new 5/8” locknuts as the originals from the Curt install needed replacing. I also had to buy (4) 5/8” nuts from Tractor Supply since the Curt install had nuts welded on the front 4 bolt locations. I used the Curt 5/8” bolts and flat washers since they did not need replacing. I haven’t had a chance to get the trailer on the road yet, but see no reason why it will not pull nicely with the Gen Y gooseneck. It will be pulled with a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD 6.6 Duramax and 10 speed Allison transmission.
The ride while pulling our trailer is much better. While there is still some bucking, the Gen Y hitch is much smoother. The install was fairly easy as well.
What our customers are saying:
"WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
