Expert Reply:
We have two Demco Recon Gooseneck Ball to Fifth Wheel Adapters available that serve different applications. The part # DM8550045 which is for standard truck beds and the part # DM8550046 which is designed for flat bed trucks. Flat beds usually have a taller bed height and gooseneck balls that are recessed down below. This adapter compensates for this by having a lower overall height and a ball attachment that reaches further down below.
