Notes:
V-19 Certified for safety and featuring exceptional strength and versatility, this universal adapter converts a fifth-wheel king pin to a gooseneck coupler. This allows you to tow your fifth-wheel trailer without a bulky fifth-wheel hitch. The Ranch Hitch from Andersen Manufacturing is easy to install, even for the inexperienced do-it-yourselfer.
You can perform these steps to determine if the adapter will work for your fifth-wheel trailer.
Five or six inches of clearance between the overhang of the trailer and siderails of your truck is necessary for safe operation.
Measuring for Pin Box Length
The Ranch Hitch adapter is designed for trailers with a standard or extended pin box up to 24" long (measured diagonally). To find this dimension, you should measure from the centerline of the bottom of the king pin into the back of the pin box as far as you can reach. You may not be able to reach the very back of the pin box itself because the top of it may extend into the trailer. In this case measure to where the pin box disappears into the trailer.

Very well made products and great customer service
Works great! Used the Anderson Ultimate in the past and it worked great until I put a fuel tank in the truck. After that there wasn’t enough room for the Anderson, needed something different. Check spacing on several hitches but none allowed the room. The gooseneck adapter works as advertised and now have extra bed space for gear. Picked up the gooseneck safety chains also from another vendor just to add the extra safety margin in there. Adapter is easy to hook up and works great. Still have to climb in the bed to hook up safety chains but it does work. Also love the plastic pad between the ball and the hitch so I don’t have a greasy gooseneck ball to deal with.
Well built, perfect fit, very easy to install, definitely worth it
Product looks good not installed yet, was hoping to talk to an actual person before I ordered to see if any discounts were available but never got to talk to anyone neither on the phone or chat so ordered on line
Real fast shipping, and a competitive price. Easy to follow directions and simple installation. This is a great product.
Works great just pulled it 10hrs no problem. Just wish the flare on the bottom didn't come down so far. Works fine on my CM flatbed but will rub a bit over steep hills.
Recently purchased my first covert a ball hitch it arrived chuckle and installed in under an hour works well
excellent service and excellent product the AM3100 is the best choice to go from 5th wheel to gooseneck
Seems to be a very well built product. Good price and shipped fast. Fairly simple to install, I recommend having a friend or two around to help tighten everything down. Also I preferred to bolt rather than weld ( unless you have a closed off pin box), you never know when you may need to go back to fifth wheel in a hurry.
Received product 5-10-2017
Installed on 5-11-2017
Gave a test run and seems good fella good and looks great. I like the 24000 and 6000 lbs feature think it is stronger of course.
That’s the second hitch I’ve purchased and have enjoyed them both. Have not had any complaints
As always, a great product from etrailer.com! This company is fantastic. Very helpful, with a wide selection of products and fast shipping. I have been a customer for a couple of years now, and always make this my first stop when looking for parts and products for my camper and trailer. You will not be disappointed in the service, and if you have any questions Renee will be glad to hunt down the answers for you. Thank you again etrailer.com!
I have pulled my camping trailer approx. 300 hundred miles since I installed the adapter. It works great. Installation was pretty simple, the only difficult part was drilling the four holes thru my fifth wheel box. E-trailer service and shipping were great!
Works like charm. This is the best way to fifth wheel. No messing with a big heavy bridge in the bed of the truck.
As advertised, easy to install and works well.
A friend and I installed the gooseneck adaptor with no trouble at all. The first time I pulled my trailer, I didn't think it was behind me. It made the pull so easy. Thanx so much.....
Was very impressed with the quality and it’s made in the USA!….
I haven't had a chance to install, currently-20 wait for a warmup. Anderson products have always worked great. Built well. Factory service great and friendly.
Very easy to install had to use weld methed on king plate like very well would buy again. Price very good shipping good.
Quick delivery. Great communication from order to delivery.
Product shipped/arrived timely from eTrailer; installation instructions provided by Anderson Manuf are very clear/easy to follow. Hitch is very easy to install. Attached to 30' fifth wheel, 11,000lbs tow weight and immediately pulled the trailer thru steep hill country without any hesitation. Pulling cattle trailers/heavy hay trailers, i know heavy duty hitches when i see them and this is a great product; HIGHLY recommended. Remote latching mechanism is a great feature; it too is very solid/secure
Good product is a pretty good product but can't figure why you changed 1/2to 9/16 drill hole with out flat washers to big for the 1/2 lock washers
The Ranch HItch 5th wheel adapter AM3100 was everything that we needed and more!! It fit perfectly and was a breeze to install. We will be pulling our "home" around the country when we retire. We didn't want to have the back of the truck to be full of "hitch" with no room for much else. The Gooseneck adapter is the perfect choice for us!! GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Haven’t towed with it yet. Install was a breeze if you have some tools. I do like the way this attaches better than other. The treaded collar makes for a strong fit.
Installed in about ten minutes, ( I used a bearing puller to seat the bushings ) five minutes to tack weld it into place and done. Pulls better than a fifth wheel hitch IMO. Seems to be made very well. Took two days for deliver. Very satisfied
