copeland343:
the problem arises because the vast majority of fifth wheel manufacturers will not warranty any pin box area or frame damage if a gooseneck style hitch is used.
Now from previous posting here, as well as a quick check of the web site, it does appear Lippert approves of the Reese Goose Box style hitch in question here.
Again, the Reese Goose Box is an entirely different set up than the old style gooseneck hitches so commonly used, best illustrated by the photo several posts ago shown by Me Again's post, showing the Cardinal fifth wheel in Yuma. That is the, at least to me, old style, regular gooseneck hitch.
