Question:

Do you sell a gooseneck to fifth wheel adapter with a 3.75inch OD pipe? I have an older Odom trailer that does not have the standard 4inch pipe sleeve. Any help you can offer would be appreciated. Thanks.

Expert Reply:

While we do not have an adapter that is 3-3/4 inches in diameter I do have a couple of possible solutions for you.

First, you could replace both the inner and outer tubes using # KPG5-R30. A certified professional welder would have to perform this installation. This is a viable solution if you will be towing the trailer with a 5th wheel hitch all the time.

Second, if your truck has industry standard 5th wheel rails you could use a gooseneck plate instead, such as # 16055.
