Expert Reply:

We offer 2 square tube gooseneck-to-fifth-wheel coupler adapters, the Redline Coupler Adapter, # KPG5-Q25-IP, and the Bulldog Coupler Adapter, # BD0289650300. These are quality couplers that would do an excellent job.

If I were choosing one of these couplers, I would go with the Bulldog coupler because it has a wider bottom plate similar to a fifth wheel pin box that will make more contact with the fifth wheel hitch. It also has a small curved lip at the front of the plate making it easier to slide onto the fifth wheel head if you are not exactly level when hooking up.

The Bulldog coupler adapter also weighs 7 lbs less than the Redline coupler adapter making it a little easier to install and remove.
