Best 5th Wheel Hitch, Gooseneck Hitch interchange ?

[GMmaniac]

Bought new GMC Sierra 2500HD CC Z71 6.0 4.10 Standard Box. Would like to install a fifth wheel hitch and gooseneck hitch that is easy to uninstall, install each. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you

A friend that tows a lot with 5th wheel camper and gooseneck for horse trailer has a B & W turn over ball that hides beneath the bed. He added the B & W 5th wheel mount to that. So now he can swap or remove with the pull of a lever. It works pretty good for him.

 

Good luck

When I bought my truck it already had a gooseneck installed so to switch it to a 5th wheel I'm going to eventually get one of these...

To me for the $$ it's the most convenient option.

old post..but B&W is the way to go....in my view.

Reviving this somewhat.  Blue Ox makes a 5th wheel that locks into the gooseneck ball.  Can be mounted in a minute. comes in 3 sections for easy install by almost anyone.  Remove it when not in use.  If one has a retractable ball or a flip, one would have all their bed back for use when not using either.  No rails attached to bed for the 5ht wheel with this hitch.
