I converted my 5th wheel htich to a goose neck hitch when I traded pickups this summer. Is this a bad decsion? Reason I did the conversion was because of the clean bed when not towing. The gooseneck hitch in the pickup is B&W and the ball can be turned over when not using.
Had heard from a sales person, trying to sell an air ride/shock absorbing system, that a gooseneck hitch puts more stress on the trailer frame and therefore fractures occur more. Is there any truth about this or is it a selling ploy? Does anyone know if this voids the warranty on 5th wheel trailes?
Could go to Gulf Stream and send emails, but have had some run ins with them and don't know if I would get an unbias answer. Any info would be helpful.
Thanks, Darwin
