- Poppy_s_5th_WheExplorerGD does use Lippert frames and components. Lippert will only warranty their frames if you use the Reese Goose Box which should work perfectly for you.

x2! If you already have a GN ball in your truck, consider an Andersen Ultimate hitch, which uses the existing GN ball as an anchor point. Another alternative is a Reese "Goosebox" pinbox, which is an extended pin box with a GN receiver on the end of it. Lippert does OK this on =some= of their frames.

Scott - Coach-manExplorerI beleive Grand Design uses Lippert frames, which are the issue with gooseneck hitches. Call Grand Designs Customer Service, and ask your question. They are great at providing answers!
- romoreExplorer IICheck with the manufacturer, they will likely advise against it. Goose neck adapters put a strain on pin boxes they were never designed for. Go with it if you want but 'chucking' from flex may make your life miserable.
