Is There An Adapter To Connect A PullRite SuperGlide To A B&W Turnoverball Hitch
Question:
I have BandW gooseneck turnover system installed on my 2008 GMC sierra and would like to add a Pullrite Superglide. Is there a way to accomplish this and keep the gooseneck hitch?

Typically when someone is wanting to use an rail style hitch when there's a gooseneck hitch already in place they can simply use an adapter like # 16310. Unfortunately in your case the PullRite SuperGlide isn't going to be compatible with an adapter since it has a flat base and doesn't arch up to clear the middle supports of the adapter.
Because of this you would unfortunately have to either remove the turnoverball hitch or use a different 5th wheel hitch that was compatible with it. If you do decide to replace the turnoverball hitch with a set of base rails then I recommend the B&W Custom Installation Kit w/ Base Rails for 5th Wheel Trailer Hitches # BWRVK2500 if you have a 2500 or 3500. If you have a 1500 then you'll need part # BWRVK2503 instead.
These rail kits come with custom-fit brackets to make installation much faster and require less drilling. They'll give you a great base for your SuperGlide to mount to as long as it's designed for ISR rails.
