It sure sounds like you are light on tongue weight now. As you said a fifth wheel/goose neck should have 25% of the weight on the pin. If you are light now, how will you ever have the weight you need with the conversion? A fiver with too light pin weight is just as bad as a bumper pull.
so the GN conversion would all but remove sway,
That is not true in all cases. Twice I have pulled goose neck flat beds that had too light of tongue weight. Got plumb scary over about 50 mph, until we stopped and shifted some cargo forward. My point is that if too little tongue weight is your problem now, the goose neck conversion may not fix it. Start my knowing your current weights.
Yes, they can get squirrly if tongue light. Yes I will be weighing as soon as the weather get better. As I stated in my previous post, I have an addition 300 lbs i can shift to the nose. I had stated that I did not want to do so if it would create a tongue heavy scenario. None of which I can know until I weigh it. The ice has pretty much melted here so maybe soon.
