Re: 5th wheel hitch vs goose neck

Hello and welcome. Wisdom, DON'T go with an extension. Those things chage the stress's on the frame and void frame warranties. If you were going with a smaller trailer, you might be OK, but the trailer your talking about is going to be heavy. Don't do it.

If your only moving 4 or 5 times a year, take the hitch out of the truck. Let it hang off the kingpin while not in use.
