Thank you all for your replies.
Does this Anderson hitch work in a short bed?
The B&W flip-over gooseneck ball installed on the truck appears to be in front of the rear axle (toward the front of the cab) and my older truck has the fifth wheel centered right over the axle? That makes me wonder if this anderson hitch will work on my short bed dodge.
Looking forward to this weekend here in Missouri, gun rifle deer season opens up and I've seen more deer this year than I ever have.
When you install the Andersen hitch, it moves the ball back approximately 4 inches from the one in the bed. I use mine in a shortbed truck, but the 5er has the cutouts so I am still able to get a pretty decent angle in a turn, although not necessarily a full 90 degrees. For 90 degrees with a shortbed you'll need a slider, or something similar.
