Question:
I have a 2024 Chevy 2500 with Factory 5th wheel prep. You are saying that this product will NOT work with the factory prep? Just curious on why it would not work. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Hey Brad, the reason the Convert A Ball Adapter part # CAB-C5G is not normally recommended with OEM gooseneck setups is the type of lever/release those types of balls usually have. If the top of the ball has the lever for it to release from the gooseneck hitch base you can't use the adapter with it...BUT for your 2025 Chevy Silverado 3500 we have the B and W Gooseneck Ball part # BWGNXA2061 which has the release built into the base of the ball so it would work.
