• Underbed Rail 5th Wheel Setups for 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 Short Bed
  Hi Tim; do you have the 5-1/2' bed or the 6-1/2' bed? The only aftermarket underbed rail system is from Demco.

This is compatible with 5-1/2' and 6-1/2' bed configurations. Outside of that you're looking at a gooseneck setup like the one you described.

• Using Air Lift Air Bags with Curt Gooseneck Trailer Hitch on a 2012 GMC Sierra 1500
  Yes. If you replace the U-bolts used in Air Lift air bags # AL88204 with the bolt as indicated in the instructions it will be compatible with the Curt Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # C615-632. If your truck is a short bed then the approximate distance from the back of the cab to the center of the ball is 35 inches. On a long bed that distance is 47 inches. At some point you will need to make a 90 degree (or more) turn. If you are towing a 5th wheel trailer...

• Can 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 5-1/2 foot Bed Tow Gooseneck Trailer
  For a truck like your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that has a 5-1/2 foot bed it's typically not recommended to try and tow a gooseneck or fifth wheel hitch trailer. Unless the nose is tapered like a stock trailer where there's essentially no nose you'll have turning clearance issues. If the nose is tapered like that we have the Curt gooseneck hitch part # C615-632 as a confirmed fit which will work well. This hitch gives you a setup where you can flip the ball upside down when not needed and is...

• Can a 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5-1/2 foot bed Tow a Gooseneck Stock Horse Trailer
  The Curt gooseneck hitch part # C615-632 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for your 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5-1/2 foot bed. Since you said the horse trailer is a stock trailer that would typically mean that the nose of it does not have a storage area or living quarters and that the front of the trailer would come to a very narrow point where the coupler installs. I attached a picture that shows the style of gooseneck trailer that would work on a truck with as short...

• What are Determining Factors for Figuring Out if Truck and Gooseneck have Trailer Turning Clearance
  With a 5-1/2 foot bed you would need all the offset you could get to make a 90 degree turn honestly. There are two determining factors for whether or not you need an offset. The first is the width of the nose of your trailer and then the distance from the center of the gooseneck ball to the truck cab. If the front of your trailer is very narrow you would have your best chance of making a sharp turn. If the trailer has living quarters or a square nose at all then you would be out of luck...

• How to Determine if a Short Bed Truck Will have Enough Clearance to Make Tight Turns
  The issue you will run into is that when you go to make tight turns the storage area on your trailer (depending on the dimensions of it), will most likely hit the cab of the truck since your truck bed is so short. Here is a formula you can use to determine if you have the needed clearance. (A + B) - C = Clearance A = Distance from the gooseneck ball to the truck cab B = Offset used, like if you used a Offset Extension Ball # 19308 C = Width of the nose of the trailer divided by 2. I...

• Can 2008 GMC Sierra 5-1/2 Foot Bed Tow Fifth Wheel Trailer and Tow Gooseneck Trailer
  Since you know the bed length of your 2008 GMC Sierra 1500 is so short at 5-1/2 feet in length what you are asking for is a bit challenging to accomplish but I do have one solution that will work and allow you to use your Curt E16 hitch. You are going to have to install a set of truck bed fifth wheel rails as there's no other way (I'll get to more on this later). So for a custom fifth wheel rail kit for your truck you would want the part # RP50064-58 from Reese as there isn't a Curt option,...

• Can the Air Lift # AL57204 Install on a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a Curt Gooseneck Hitch
  I did some checking and it looks like the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57204 are compatible with the Curt gooseneck # C615-632, for your 2009 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 5-1/2 foot bed. A lot of air bag kits install using the same mounting holes along the frame that a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch would use. This is why you were seeing that most of them say they are not compatible. The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs # AL57204 install under the frame of your...

• Where is Gooseneck Hitch Ball Location for Curt Double Lock # C615-632 on a 2008 Silverado 6-1/2 Bed
  If you look at the first page of the linked "alternate" installation instructions for the Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch w/ Installation Kit # C615-632 you will see that it has a few different bed length options. Since your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado has a 6-1/2 foot bed you will want to look at the measurement for the 78.80 inch bed installation. If you measure from the back of the truck box (not the tailgate) then you will want to measure 42-7/16 inches towards...

• Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 5-1/2 ft Bed
  For a 2014 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a 5-1/2 foot bed we do have the Curt gooseneck hitch # C615-632 as a confirmed fit but the B and W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1057 that you referenced only fits the 6-1/2 foot bed version of your truck. The 8 foot bed versions require the part # BWGNRK1007 instead. I attached an install video for the Curt hitch on a similar Silverado as yours as well.

  We do have gooseneck hitches that will fit a 2016 Chevorlet Silverado 1500 truck with the 5-1/2 foot bed. However, the Curt hitch model # C61301-52 that you referenced is an over the bed hitch that was not designed to fit in a 5-1/2 bed.

• Recommended Gooseneck Hitch for a 2008 GMC Sierra and Trailer with a Ranch Hitch 5th-Wheel Adapter
  I would recommend the Curt gooseneck hitch kit # C615-632 for your truck, which will work whether you have a 6-1/2 or 8 foot bed on your 2008 GMC Sierra. Please note that if your truck has a 6-1/2 foot bed, you should be using a fifth wheel to gooseneck adapter that has an offset to give you enough clearance in tight turns. Ranch offers the offset section as a replacement part # AM3140, if needed. It would be a good idea to purchase the Ranch Hitch safety chains, part # AM3109. The Curt...

• Gooseneck Hitch for 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 That Doesn't Require Access Under Truck Bed
  If instead you went with the Curt Overbed, Folding Ball Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with Installation Kit # C61331-52 which fits your 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 short bed you'd be able to flip the ball without having to access the hitch under the wheel well.

• Fifth Wheel Towing Setup Recommendation for a 2011 Chevy Silverado 5-1/2 foot Bed
  Since your truck has a 5-1/2 foot bed the only way you are going to be able to tow a fifth wheel trailer is if you go with a fifth wheel rail kit and hitch plus a Sidewinder pin box on the trailer. There's no offset hitch or adapter for the gooseneck route that would allow this to happen. First you will need to start with a rail kit. For that you would want to go with a custom install kit that will minimize drilling when compared to a universal kit like the part # RP50064-58. For a hitch...

• Does Spray-In Liner Change Measurement When Installing Gooseneck Hitch On 2009 GMC Sierra
  Since the measurement needed when installing the Underbed Gooseneck Hitch, part # C615-632 requires you to measure from the rear of the truck bed, you will need to make sure you measure the distance taking into account the spray liner if it is on the back edge of the truck bed. If it is 1/8 of an inch you need to add that 1/8 inch to the measurement for the 4 inch hole to be drilled in the truck bed.
