Item Description



 
  If you want to pull a 5th wheel trailer but do not want to lose your truck bed to a bulky 5th wheel hitch, we have the solution for you! You can use any standard gooseneck hitch in your truck bed with our Ranch Hitch Adapter attached to the trailer.


   The Ranch Hitch Adapter is V19 Certified, it can pull a trailer weighing up to 24,000 lbs. with 6,000 lbs tongue weight.
 
Note: Not to be used on a pin box over 36"

   The Andersen 3100 Ranch Hitch Adapter is very easy to use. Most gooseneck receivers require you to get into the bed of your truck to latch the coupler; not so with the Ranch Hitch Adapter. The remote cable mechanism allows you to engage and release the coupler while standing on the ground outside your pickup. The bell shaped receiver allows for the hitch ball and adapter to be as much as 3" off center, and still slide into place correctly.


   The Andersen 3100 Ranch Hitch Adapter is quick and easy to install. The installation is simple and takes roughly an hour to complete. To see if the adapter will fit your 5th wheel, do the following: Back your truck into position to hook up your 5th wheel. Measure from the "pin plate" (the bottom of the pin box) down to the top of the ball in the bed of your truck. When the adapter is fully compressed that measurement is11 3/4". It has 3" of adjustment, so when it is fully extended that measurement will be 14 3/4". You should have 5" or 6" of clearance between the over-hang and the sideboards of your truck, keeping in mind your 5th wheel should be level for traveling.

   We do not recommend using the Andersen 3100 or 3139 Ranch Hitch Adapter on cushioned or moveable pin boxes, only on static pin box applications.
