A great way to make your trailer more secure to your tow vehicle. No josseling around from a loose ball connection. Easy hook up, less jacking. Lower your Jack’s to the ground and snug it up. Unlatch and pull out.

Review from a similar e GN to 5W Adapter in Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapters
Very good quality. Welds and fit are excellent. I used this to adapt a 5thwheel. The factory pin box was the wrong style to fit my truck and hitch. This coupler adapter allowed me to use vertical adjustment to let my trailer clear the bed of my truck even when turning. As you can see I cut the coupler down to suit my needs and it seems to have worked very well. My only complaint isn’t even really aimed at the part or etrailer but at usps. etrailer shipped the part the next day and I had it within 3days. The box it came in was shredded!!! Again not really the fault of etrailer or the part but y’all might think about using better shipping containers or using a better shipping company. Also wrapping these bigger heavier parts with sharp corners in shipping Cellophane might help keep the boxes in 1 piece. Thanks!!

Ask the Experts about this etrailer Gooseneck and Fifth Wheel Adapters
- Does Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Adapter KPG5-R30 Require Professional WeldingYes, when it comes to round gooseneck couplers, the industry standard is a 4 inch OD inner tube and 4.5 inch OD outer tube. The Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30 you referenced includes both the inner and the outer tubes, ideal for people needing to replace a damaged coupler or for someone looking to fabricate a trailer without an existing coupler. It sound like all you actually need is the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30IP, which...
view full answer... - Replacement Inner Tube for 30K Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler AdapterIf the outer tube you have on your trailer now measures to be 4-1/2" diameter then you will not need a new outer tube and you can use the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter part # KPG5-R30IP. However, if the outer tube on your trailer is not 4-1/2" diameter then you will need both, the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter part # KPG5-R30.
view full answer... - How to Determine Fit of Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler AdapterThe Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30 is simply a replacement for the gooseneck coupler currently on your trailer; it will replace both the inner and outer tubes of your current coupler. This adapter has a 4 inch inner tube and 4-1/2 inch outer tube and you will need to have a qualified professional install the brand new coupler.
view full answer... - Towing a Gooseneck Trailer with a 5th Wheel Hitch and Availability of Adapter for 3-3/4" Inner TubeWhile we do not have an adapter that is 3-3/4 inches in diameter I do have a couple of possible solutions for you. First, you could replace both the inner and outer tubes using # KPG5-R30. A certified professional welder would have to perform this installation. This is a viable solution if you will be towing the trailer with a 5th wheel hitch all the time. Second, if your truck has industry standard 5th wheel rails you could use a gooseneck plate instead, such as # 49080.

view full answer... - Dimensions of the Pin Holes and the Pin Hole Diameter on the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel CouplerThe Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter, part # KPG5-R30IP, fits most standard round gooseneck outer tubes. The Pin Hole Diameter is 7/8 inches and the Adjustment Holes, center to center, are 2-11/16 inches apart, giving it a Range of 8 inches for Vertical Adjustment. The Tube Diameter is 4 inches and the Plate Dimensions are 9-7/8 inches long and 9-7/8 inches wide.

view full answer... - Best Gooseneck Trailer to Fifth Wheel Adapter Solution for Towing with Short Bed TruckYou are definitely on the right track to coming up with the best solution to allow you to tow your fifth wheel trailer and gooseneck trailer. Since you have a short bed truck it is important that you have turning clearance which converting the gooseneck to a king pin does allow you to still use the slider hitch and have the clearance you need. Since you have the standard 4 inch tube on your trailer the king pin adapter part # KPG5-R30IP is the way to go. This will fit in place of what...

It is 14" from the top of the tube to the first adjustment hole. I have attached a diagram detailing these measurements.

- Base Plate Size And Capacity Differences On The Ram Gooseneck To 5th Wheel Coupler AdapterI contacted the manufacturer on your behalf regarding your question. Per Ram, the plate is the same 10"x10" size on the # KPG5-R25-IP and the # KPG5-R30IP. Our review video also had it measured the same. The capacity difference increase for the 30k comes by way of the welded belly band around the bottom of the outer tube. The 30k capacity also comes from the .275" inner tube wall thickness vs the .24" inner tube wall thickness on the 25K. Included are video resources for more information...
view full answer... - Recommended Adapters to Tow Gooseneck Trailer With 5th Wheel HitchSo you're wanting a king pin adapter that would take the place of your gooseneck coupler, is that correct? If that's the case, the best way to do that wouldn't be to add a pin box. You'd want to use a king pin adapter instead. Attempting to use an actual pin box would require lots of fabrication and engineering work to ensure the assembly would have the proper weight rating, as well as achieving the proper height so the trailer is towed level. The coupler adapter you need will depend...
view full answer... - How Does the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter WorkI am not sure I understand what you are asking. The Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter part # KPG5-R30 installs on the trailer, not the tow vehicle. It is designed to replace the gooseneck coupler on the trailer and allow for connection to a 5th wheel hitch as opposed to connection with a gooseneck hitch ball. The old coupler will need to be cut off and the new outer tube will need to be welded on the trailer by a professional welder. The inner tube will then slide in the...
view full answer... - Can Lube Plate Be Used with Ram Gooseneck Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30IPYou can absolutely use a 10" lube plate such as the Curt # 16721 with the Ram Gooseneck Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30IP to keep the hitch head lubricated and scratch free. You may just want to take a look at the manual for your particular 5th wheel hitch, as some will note a maximum thickness on a lube plate like this. If you can tell me what model hitch you have I can also check this for you.
view full answer... - How to Tow 5th Wheel Trailer With Gooseneck Trailer HitchWhile we do have a way for you to tow your 5th wheel trailer with your truck that has a gooseneck trailer hitch, the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30 only fits gooseneck trailers so it wouldn't work for you. The best way to tow a 5th wheel trailer with the gooseneck ball in your truck is with the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045. This is a 5th wheel hitch that attaches directly to your truck's gooseneck ball, allowing you...

- 5th Wheel Slider Hitch Adapter For Gooseneck TrailerYou will need to lock out the sliding function on your Pull Right 5th wheel hitch to use the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter item # KPG5-R30IP. If you can not lock out your slider than I recommend the Curt Spyder Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Fifth Wheel Rails Item # 16085. This adapter mounts to industry standard 5th wheel rails, has a 2-5/16" trailer ball, comes with safety chain attachments, and also includes pins and clips for rail attachment.

If your gooseneck hitch has a round tube, then I recommend the Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R30IP. If it has the square tube, then I recommend the Ram Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter Inner Tube - Square - 30,000 lbs # KPG5-Q30IP which has a 4 inch tube.

Using the rail mounted ball would be a simpler solution than the # KPG5-R30IP you referenced, which would require you to use a fifth wheel hitch.

- Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter For Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel HitchFor a gooseneck to 5th wheel trailer that you can use, the recommended option simply depends on the shape of your gooseneck tube, whether it is square or round.

If that's what you have you can use one of the following: - Round Tube: Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Coupler Adapter # KPG5-R25-IP - Square Tube: Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer...

If the fifth wheel hitch you are using is compatible with industry standard bed rails, then you can use part # RP50223 to provide an attachment point for the safety chains. To prevent the chains from snagging on anything, you'll need to ensure that the safety chains are long enough to allow the trailer to make turns, but no longer...
