Andersen Aluminum Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection #3220

All,

I want to purchase this, "Andersen Aluminum Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection #3220." But for the life of me I cant figure if EVERYTHING is included That is needed with "3220" Package or not.. Or if I need to buy Separate accessories?? Anyone have Experience with this?Where did you buy? I was looking at tweety's.

Also I have a 2016 F350 "fifth wheel Prepped" truck. What do I need to buy for the goose neck hole to work with this Set up.
Thanks all
Rob

    While not all states require them, be sure to get a safety chain kit, because you just might travel through a state that requires them and, if a LEO didn't get his morning donut, can make you park your rig until you install them. The Andersen is considered a ball hitch here in AZ and chains are required for =all= ball hitches.

  • The "Hitch Prep Kit" only gets the underbed part. If you also got the "Gooseneck Hitch Kit" you'll be good to go. Otherwise you'll have to get the Ball from Ford or Reese.
  • I bought the 3221 model (lowered version) from Tweetys. Mine came with the hitch unit, the ball coupling adapter (that mounts to the king pin), and the standard coupling adapter (sleeve that connects to the GN ball). The newer models have a "funnel" on the ball coupling adapter. That's what will be included and that's technically all you need. Some may wish to purchase the safety chain package as well, but that's a separate item.

    For the 2nd part of your question, the hitch attaches to the GN ball, so you don't need anything for the hole (the hole will have the ball).
