The 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. With 3" of vertical adjustment you can be
sure your trailer matches up level with your truck.
We now offer the adapter with an 8" offset for use with shortbed trucks. The
extra 8" gives you more room between the over-hang of your trailer and the cab
of your truck allowing you to turn more easily. The offset version includes all
the same benefits of the straight version and is also rated for 24,000 lbs and
6,000 lbs tongue weight.
Our Ranch Hitch Adapter is quick and easy to install. (For full instructions
click the "installation instructions" link at the top of this page.) 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 is 11 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 of the trailer and the sideboards of your
truck, keeping in mind your 5th wheel should be level for traveling.
