5th wheel pin...........

I bought a flatdeck gooseneck trailer.
It has a ball hitch on it and I have a 5th wheel in my truck , so I got a 5th wheel hitch made up.(slides in and out of the hitch on trailer)
My question is are all 5th wheel pins the same size?
It doesnt hook up to my truck easily.
It cost me 400 bucks to get this thing made and it doesnt work.
Its almost like its to long and to tight but measurments all say its OK?
