Question:
I have a newer keystone 5th wheel and its a little rough. Hoping this will bolt up and be better for towing. Thoughts? I have a gooseneck ball in my truck which Id prefer over 5th wheel hitch anyways.

Hey Mel, yeah the Shocker Hitch # SHK47YR would be an excellent upgrade to your current pin box but the only catch is - it's only going to work with Lippert or Curt Turning Point 5th-wheel pin boxes.
If you had a Lippert 1716, 1116, and 0115, FabEx 500, 503, 520, 530, and 560 pin box then you could use # SHK55MR, or if you had the Lippert 1621, 0719, and Rhino then you could use # SHK23MR.
So if you had any of those pin boxes, then this one would affectively bolt up and replace your current one. Since you mentioned you wouldn't hate to part from your Gooseneck hitch let me know what kind of 5th wheel you're looking for in the comments and I'd be happy to throw out some suggestions!

Hey Mel, how did things turn out with the Shocker Hitch upgrade for your Keystone 5th wheel? Did it smooth out your towing like you were hoping? Your results could really help others looking to switch from a 5th-wheel hitch to a gooseneck setup.
