Best 1986 Dodge Ram Pickup Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapters

I decided to buy the Champion fifth wheel hitch to pull a fifth wheel camper, my 2004 Dodge Ram 2500 already had a B&W goose neck hitch in it. The champion hitch allowed me to also have a fifth wheel hitch with out drilling and mounting more weight to the truck. The instructions for assembly were clear and easy to follow making the assembly of the hitch easy. The hitch fit snug and there is no play in it. The 26' fifth wheel camper pulled nicely, no surging or swaying.

Awesome product. Best of both fifth and goose put together about time. No annoying rails on my trucks bed, just remove fifth wheel flip gosse over and hides in hole within minutes. 2016 350 Ram. 38' 5R no problem nice setup.

It is a great investment. I did not want to put the rails in my truck and this was the answer to utilize my gooseneck set up for my fifth wheel. It also provides a lot of room in the bed of my truck

It does what it's supposed to

awesome fast service perfect product, took care of the rocking i had in the trailer as a goose neck.

Needs bigger plate for my use. but overall works fine

Hitch is great and a breeze to install. I cant say enough about the service I received from etrailer. I ordered the wrong hitch (my fault) so I called etrailer they immediately sent me a return authorization and shipped me the correct hitch. They shipped the replacement hitch on Thursday morning I received it Friday. Thats awesome. Thanks etrailer.

order came in on time. just one hour to install. with help from friends. so far its going well. adjusted height. looks good. can't wait to get on the road. great company

Perfect set up for my ram megacab short bed. Tows quiet never had any rattling and the slider definitely helps in tight situations.

Upon receiving the product the plate is welded to the tube is crooked. So when it's mounted it's looks bad.

I converted my horse trailer to a fifth wheel set up form Etrailer. It was easy and works like a charm.

The hitch is easy to ensemble. Great design. Pulled my trailer great! But when I hooked up the second time to the trailer the roll pin that goes in the locking bar fell out. Wasn't a really big deal. But if I hadn't had any tools and a 1/4" bolt with a lock nut I probably won't have been able to hook up. Maybe they could change that. The best adapter from gooseneck to fifth wheel.But all in all very happy with it.

The hitch is much heaver and better built than it appears in the online photo. It was easy to install over my gooseneck ball took less than 20 min. rides nice with almost no noise. The set up also has about 3" of offset this was nice as I pull with a 6.5 bed ram 2500.

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

Put this setup on a 2021 pj flatbed with a recessed gooseneck (believe it's a b&m 30k kit) in it from the factory. The top of the ball is about 1/8"-3/16" lower than the deck. Took a few tries to make everything fit along with some modifications to the set screws. I had to trim off about 1/4" on the bottom set screw to clear my opening. Also I can't set the 5th wheel height to the lowest setting because the upright casting sticks out the bottom of the frame. One could trim that off as well but then you lose the hole for the highest setting. Gonna run in the middle setting and if I have to, I'll trim off the excess to make it sit lower. Bed is on a 2014 Ram 4500. Top of bed to ground with no load is 41.5" at the rear axle. Overall looks like it will work for what I'm doing.

Makes for a more stable hitch with the Ram Puck System, don't hear of feel the gooseneck down pipe flexing, makes hooking up easier in that I don't have to get up into the bed to close and lock the gooseneck lock. Yeah, glad I went this way. Easy install.

I always order these for my trailers and have always got a good working functional products with free shipping can't beat the price or quality a+++

This hitch mount is great! I can now swap over from my 5th wheel hitch to a gooseneck in minutes. This is a great product. I had a gooseneck hitch already installed in my pick up but needed to tow my 29 foot 5th wheel. I other mounts to install the 5the wheel to my 2013 Ram but the gooseneck hitch mount was in the way. Found this set up on line at etrailer.com . Fast shipping, Ez to get my order in. 100 % satisfied. Plug and play. Took less than 10 minutes to install.

This product worked great. Used it in a 2016 Ram 2500 4x4 with the B&W turnover ball. The only problem is the safety chains for the B&W wont let this set flat against the bed of the truck. I solved this problem by using a heavy duty 1/4 inch rubber bed mat between the bed and this bracket and cut the rubber around the B&W hole and safety chains. That helped take up the extra space and helped to protect the spray in bed liner from being rubbed. Had no problems towing my fifth wheel and was happy I don't have these rails permanently mounted in my truck bed.

Ordering was quick and easy. Product does what it is supposed to do. Shipping was fast.

Fits perfectly into curt goose neck hitch. My reese 5th wheel hitch fits on the rails perfect. I haul dirt bikes in my truck so being able to take the rails out is perfect..... nothing in the way of loading or unloading

Installation was easy, and straight forward. I love not having a 5th wheel in the bed of the truck. I don't care for the airbag, and wish they would come up with some sort of short travel coilover shock system or something similar. Simpler is better in my opinion. On my 2014 Ram crew cab SRW 3500 with 6.5ft bed, the turning radius is pretty dang good, and I've experienced no issues over uneven terrain or unevenly elevated intersections, of which I have some right around my house. The ride is very smooth and comfortable, and only gets lumpy when the airbag is fully inflated. I normally tend to run about 38-40psi in it. That gives me about 6 inches of bed rail clearance, and still allows plenty of rail to goosebox clearance in tight turns. My truck trailer combo is; 2014 Ram Cummins 3500 SRW with 6.5ft bed, and a 2016 KZ Durango 1500, with a 1600lb dry pin weight, and a 10,200Lb GVWR.

Make sure your part is exactly what you need. Return shipping is very expensive.

Excellent workmanship. Ordered another one for my other trailer.

Great product and works as intended.

Super great customer service and exactly the product I needed for a specific trailer to truck connection I was looking for at a very competitive price!! Thanks, Mark Clark
