Since its founding in 1987, B&W Trailer Hitches has focused on making towing safer, easier, and more convenient. Its latest product continues that legacy, while introducing innovative features that RVers are sure to love. The new B&W Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter is designed to add versatility and simplify your towing setup, without compromising control, safety, or reliability in any way.

Like other gooseneck adapters, B&W’s design bridges the gap between fifth-wheel trailers and gooseneck equipped trucks. But where it stands apart is in its integrated SumoSpring® suspension and dual-axis cushioning. Together, these features help smooth out the ride, reduce chucking, and manage both vertical and horizontal movement for greater control and comfort. While the difference is especially noticeable on rough roads, the improvement carries through the entire towing experience.
The adapter also includes features that help make the hitching process faster and frustration-free. An auto-latching, self-resetting coupler ensures a secure connection with a satisfying click. The large funnel design helps guide it into place, even when alignment isn’t perfect. When it’s time to unhitch, just release the coupler with a single pull of an easy-to-reach latch cable. For added security, a padlock can be installed when the trailer is left unattended.

Some additional benefits? The Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter comes ready to use right out of the box, and the built-in SumoSpring® suspension is completely maintenance-free. No airbags to inflate or finicky components to adjust. Just reliable towing, mile after mile, and no break-in period required.
As with all their products, B&W’s new Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck Adapter is proudly made in the USA and backed by a limited lifetime warranty. For more information, visit the company’s website at bwtrailerhitches.com.
