This is a great product and would recommend it for anyone who doesn’t want to purchase a 5th wheel hitch

Order confirmation was fast, shipping was fast, they said it would be here Saturday but ups doesn’t deliver on Saturday or Sunday so it didn’t get here until Monday. I knew this so I was expecting it and I didn’t need it right away so to me it didn’t matter. Everything was delivered in good shape when it got here. I’ve bought one of these from strainer before and liked it so when I found I was in need of a goose neck adapter again I got the same one and etrailer came through again. This adapter is expensive but it works great. Would recommend.

I have been using the Ranch Hitch #3100 Straight Adapter for 3 years. Converting the 5th wheel to goose neck was awesome. Much easier to hook up and a smoother, quieter pull. After purchasing a new trailer I noticed that the trailer was too close to the cab of my short bed truck. I found the Ranch Hitch #3139 with 8" offset adapter. It installs easy and gives me 8 more inches away from my truck cab. Excellent! Turning corners is much more comfortable!

After having this on my (small) 5th wheel travel trailer for more than 2 years, I have discovered the major problem with it... Because the hitch point is so much lower, it has created unusual leverage over the kingpin box and now my trailer frame is cracking :( Your trailer must be VERY shored up around the kingpin box to resist the extension of torque by essentially making your kingpin box much longer. I loved the idea of not having a 5th hitch in the box of my truck and the removable gooseneck ball instead, but I now know that a complete change-out of the kingpin box to a gooseneck hitch would have been more reliable. I am now in Mexico with a cracked trailer frame due to this :(
