I have entertained the idea of the Andersen goosneck adapter. Hard to convince the wife of the cost when I have a "perfectly-good" hitch now. I like the convenience idea of the Andersen and the light weight in/out removal concept especially compared to the 200lbs of cast iron that I have to deal with now. But I'd hate to spend the money just to have the same jerking that I'm feeling now. As for normal "chucking" common to fifth wheels... I really don't have any to speak of. It really does pull and track well and the handling is great. Just this tugging sensation when accelerating at certain rpms is mind boggling.
You do have a usual situation. Maybe so , spending $700-800 to hopefully solve the problem. But those Curt hitches has caused some towing issues .I know we can get some driveline shudder on a hard acceleration with a heavy fifth wheel, as mentioned . What would be ideal is switching hitches with someone to eliminate the hitch . Apparently not the truck , so that leaves the fifth wheel is causing an issue . Or maybe a friend with a fifth wheel you can test things .
