5th wheel
Anyone know if these will work?
I have a gooseneck all ready and thinking of getting 5th wheel camper.

They will work but why do you want to use the gooseneck ball? I use the 'other' type of hitch and it works fine. The only thing I've heard is the gooseneck ball setup is harder to turn, I can't imagine why though. I've been in a thousand camp grounds and have only seen a couple of campers with the gooseneck ball setup.

i've read that they put a lot of extra stress on the frame of the trailer. i doubt that most 5th wheel trailer frames are built strong enough to withstand the lower pivot point of a gooseneck ball. i recommend a standard 5th wheel hitch. and there are 5th wheel hitches that have mounting rails beneath the bed if that's the issue.
