Is There a Way to Tow Fifth Wheel Hitch with Truck that Has Flatbed Gooseneck Bed  

Updated 10/30/2025 | Published 02/03/2025

Question:

Looking at a truck with a flatbed. it has a welded in gooseneck ball. I am going to want to pull a 5th wheel with this. Are there any options for this besides bolting rails to the flatbed? I dont want to put an adapter on my camper to go to gooseneck. I also think the bed will be higher so would need like a low profile hitch possibly. Thanks

Hey Jim, we actually have fifth wheel hitches designed specifically for this situation with the Demco Recon for Recessed balls part # DM8550046 which has a 21k capacity.

Hey Jim, how did the Demco Recon for the recessed ball work out on your flatbed truck? It sounds like a good match for your setup. Your feedback could help others looking for a similar low-profile option.
