Will a 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter Work With Cushioned Pin Box

Updated 02/17/2021 | Published 02/14/2021

Question:

I have a 2001f550 with a recessed gooseneck. I bough a 2009 HR 5th wheel with a air ride 5th wheel hitch. Can I use the 5th wheel adapter to gooseneck with the air ride on the travel trailer. If so which one do your recommend? Thanks

I do have an option for you but none of the fifth wheel to gooseneck adapters will work with a cushioned pin box. Therefore, I recommend using a gooseneck to fifth wheel adapter like the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter part # DM8550046 which is designed for recessed applications.
