5th wheel hitch

With the goose neck adapter you are putting your 5th wheel in a strain that it was not built to handle. Some people don't have a problem and then some do have a problem with welds cracking on the 5th wheel. With a regular 5th wheel hitch your 5th wheel is not in that kind of strain. But you are still locked together solid . You just don't have as much stain on the frame of the 5th wheel. But your 5th wheel and truck are still in a stain due to mechanically locket together going down the road. With a air hitch the 5th wheel and truck are not locked together so they are not in a strain from each other. They float independently of each other. When one goes over a bump the other one does not feel it. With a goose neck or regular 5th wheel hitch they feel each other. I hope I have explained it to where you understand what I am trying to say. All I can say is if you buy a air hitch. After you have made a couple of trips, you will say that is the best decision you had made. Was to buy the air hitch.
