Highly recommend the Andersen Ultimate Aluminum
I agree, they are getting great reviews, and they are lightweight ,and easy to install ,and remove.
Don't know what you guys are looking at but all i see in a gooseneck adapter.
The Andersen has a ball in coupler, but that is where the similarities end. A gooseneck adaptor turns the fifth wheel pin box into a gooseneck hitch. The Andersen elevates the ball to a level plane with the king pin. The torsional forces that plague the gooseneck adaptor do not exist with the Andersen.
Three versions of the Andersen Ultimate Fifth Wheel hitch are made two of them adapt to a gooseneck hitch, one is made of steel and the other made of aluminum. There is also a fifth wheel rail version.
Some states require safety chains if a ball and coupler are used.
30-80 ish lbs depending on the version you have...
Thanks!
