Andersen Hitches

Based on 503 reviews Check latest price

Product description

Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection revolutionized the 5th wheel towing industry, and is now stronger than ever! And now, you can use our Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection in truck beds with a large fuel tank or toolbox. Each Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection comes with a patented ball-funnel to make hook up even easier! The aluminum Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection is the lightest, strongest, most innovative 5th wheel hitch in the world! The base weighs just 35 lbs, eliminating the common struggle of getting your 5th wheel hitch into the bed of your truck. In fact, the base of this unit can be completely installed or removed in less than a minute. Andersen Hitches has truly found the solution to making life simple! Fifth Wheel Hitches for Short Bed Trucks? That's right! The Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection Toolbox Model even works in short bed trucks. So if you have a short bed truck, the Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection has you covered. And remember: every Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection is designed to give you an incredibly smooth and quiet ride. The custom ball used on the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection has nearly 3"" of adjustable height and rides inside a greaseless coupler — which means no more dirty hands and no more mess! And since the coupler is designed to ride on a ball, you get more swivel in every direction than with any other 5th wheel hitch available, giving you the ability to couple or uncouple your trailer on uneven terrain. Now that’s convenience! Strong, robust and simple, the Aluminum Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection is the lightest, strongest, most innovative 5th wheel hitch in the world – and all at a price that won’t make you cringe. Look at these advantages: - Rated at 24,000 lbs GTWR and 4,500 lbs tongue weight; - Industry leader in fifth wheel hitches for short bed trucks; - Features new ball-funnel for easy hook up — even works with 3"" off center ball!; - Works with all standard brands of gooseneck hitches; - Base weighs only 35lbs!; - Base can be removed or installed in less than a minute!; - Complete installation in less than 5 minutes!; - Can easily be installed or removed by just one person!; - Features a patented remote latch/unlatch cable; - The smoothest ride around — owners are saying they can't believe there's virtually no bucking and no chatter compared to other products on the market; - Three height adjustments: 16-3/4"" lower position, 17-7/8"" middle position and 19-1/8"" upper position (from bed of truck to top of ball mount). IMPORTANT: If you are using an Andersen Ultimate Connection with a Rota-Flex Pinbox, we REQUIRE you to use a Rota-Flex Lockout Kit to prevent damage to the hitch and/or tow vehicle. It also keeps the rubber pad in your Rota-Flex pin box from shifting over time. If your Andersen Ultimate Connection (3220, or 3220-TBX) will be installed on a 2015-2019 model of GMC or Chevy Trucks with no OEM, we suggest pairing it with the Full Bed Support System. This helps prevent warping that may result from torque forces, and fastens to the frame beneath the rearward bed saver rail. If you need to change the height of your gooseneck ball, you may need a coupler tube to extend the connection of the Ultimate Connection so it can attach to the gooseneck ball.

  • Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection Gooseneck Version fits with all standard brands of gooseneck hitches
  • The base weighs just 35 lbs, eliminating the common struggle of getting your 5th wheel hitch into the bed of your truck

CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter hitches

A CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter is the perfect way to maximize towing functionality on your heavy-duty pickup truck. With a set of 5th wheel rails already installed on your truck, a 5th wheel gooseneck hitch adapter allows you to tow gooseneck trailers.

Heavy-duty towing doesn't need to be a competition: gooseneck hitch vs 5th wheel. With a CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter hitch, you can tow both types of trailers with confidence and convenience.

Maximum functionality

A CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter gives your pickup truck a complete arsenal of towing options, allowing you to quickly and easily switch between a 5th wheel hitch vs gooseneck hitch. This simple but powerful adapter plate eliminates the need for complicated installations and towing equipment overhauls. Just drop it into place whenever needed!

Easy, as-needed installation

Each CURT 5th wheel gooseneck hitch comes with four 5th wheel hitch pins. After dropping the gooseneck hitch adapter into the 5th wheel base rails, the four pins secure the adapter into place and allow for easy removal as needed. Equip your truck for towing a gooseneck trailer, and within minutes, you can switch back again to readily drop in a 5th wheel hitch.

Industry-standard fit

All CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter hitches comes with industry-standard mounting points, allowing the adapter plate to drop perfectly into any set of industry-standard 5th wheel base rails. Each 5th wheel gooseneck hitch also comes with a standard 2-5/16-inch diameter gooseneck ball to couple to a variety of gooseneck trailers.

Heavy-duty towing strength

To accommodate most gooseneck trailers and match the 5th wheel capabilities of most hitches, each CURT 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter is rated for 25,000 pounds gross trailer weight. This supports a wide range of heavy-duty loads and gooseneck trailer styles (limited to lowest-rated towing component, including the pickup truck).

Bent plate 5th wheel adapter

This 5th wheel ball hitch fits all industry-standard 5th wheel hitch rails and features a 3-inch rearward offset for the 2-5/16-inch gooseneck ball. This positions the gooseneck coupling point further back on the truck axle. The gooseneck hitch adapter can be positioned over the rear axle or slightly behind it. This 5th wheel gooseneck hitch also comes with integrated safety chain loops for a safe connection.

Spyder 5th wheel adapter

This 5th wheel gooseneck hitch fits all industry-standard 5th wheel rails, dropping into place with the same simple but powerful 4-pin attachment. The Spyder gooseneck hitch features integrated safety chain loops for hooking up safety chains. The chain loops are spring-loaded for convenient and secure attachment.

X5 5th wheel adapter

For an alternative 5th wheel gooseneck adapter, CURT offers the X5 5th wheel adapter for gooseneck hitch option. These adapter plates work in the exact opposite way as our 5th wheel to gooseneck hitch adapters, dropping into a gooseneck hitch ball hole and providing a set of industry-standard 5th wheel base rails to attach a 5th wheel hitch. These 5th wheel adapters are available for select CURT and competitor gooseneck hitches.

All Q-series 5th wheel hitches are equipped with a lockable, short-throw handle that automatically engages with the kingpin to simplify coupling even further.

How to select a 5th wheel hitch: What size is the truck bed?

Your truck bed length will determine the type of mounting platform you’ll need for your 5th wheel hitch: legs or a roller. 5th wheel legs are the standard option for mounting a 5th wheel hitch, but they will only fit in a long-bed truck. For short-bed trucks, extra clearance may be needed when making tight turns. A 5th wheel roller will allow the hitch to roll backward, providing enough clearance between the trailer overhang and the truck cab.

Does the truck have an OEM puck system?

If you own a truck from Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan or Ram, your truck bed may be equipped with a puck system (pictured). If your truck has a long bed with the puck system, select a CURT 5th wheel hitch with the appropriate OEM puck system legs. If your truck has a short bed with the puck system, select a CURT 5th wheel hitch with the appropriate OEM puck system roller or roller adapter.

Do you prefer permanent base rails?

If your truck does not have the OEM puck system, you will need to install 5th wheel rails. The traditional method for installing base rails is to use vehicle-specific under-bed brackets. First, select the custom under-bed brackets that fit your specific make and model, as well as a set of industry-standard base rails. Next, if you have a long-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with legs. If you have a short-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with a roller. Remember to always abide by the weight capacity of the lowest-rated towing component.

Would you like the option to easily remove the base rails?

Another 5th wheel mounting option is a gooseneck hitch. Using the CURT Double Lock EZr or Double Lock gooseneck and X5 adapter plate allows you to have a removable set of industry-standard 5th wheel base rails. First, select the Double Lock EZr gooseneck hitch kit that fits your specific make and model. Next, select the corresponding X5 adapter plate. Finally, if you have a long-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with legs. If you have a short-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with a roller.

All A-series 5th wheel hitches operate with a lockable handle that self-resets to the ready-to-couple position after the 5th wheel is uncoupled, removing a step from the coupling process.

Easy setup

A-series 5th wheel hitches feature alignment pegs on the hitch legs, as well as easy-access mounting bolts for simple leg-to-body attachment (select models).

Simple installation

Each 5th wheel hitch is designed for fast, one-pin head removal to make removing the 5th wheel from the truck bed easier with smaller, lighter pieces.

Reliable connection

The A-series 5th wheel head is built with high-strength, interlocking jaws that greatly reduce chucking noises. The head also has an extra-wide opening for easy coupling.

Articulating head

The fully articulating torsion head of the A-series 5th wheel offers controlled coupling and stable, quiet towing with your 5th wheel trailer.

Quiet towing

A-series 5th wheel hitches also feature a cast yoke head with poly-torsion inserts. This mechanism suppresses shock loads and further reduces chucking noises from the trailer.

High-strength construction

The A25 and A30 5th wheel hitches are constructed with a cast steel main body, providing strength to tow the largest of 5th wheel trailers and offering a more precise build.

Thoroughly tested

CURT has a dedicated in-house testing and engineering facility in Detroit, MI to confirm that all of our 5th wheel hitches pass SAE J2638 specifications for safety.

How to select a 5th wheel hitch: What size is the truck bed?

Your truck bed length will determine the type of mounting platform you’ll need for your 5th wheel hitch: legs or a roller. 5th wheel legs are the standard option for mounting a 5th wheel hitch, but they will only fit in a long-bed truck. For short-bed trucks, extra clearance may be needed when making tight turns. A 5th wheel roller will allow the hitch to roll backward, providing enough clearance between the trailer overhang and the truck cab.

Does the truck have an OEM puck system?

If you own a truck from Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan or Ram, your truck bed may be equipped with a puck system (pictured). If your truck has a long bed with the puck system, select a CURT 5th wheel hitch with the appropriate OEM puck system legs. If your truck has a short bed with the puck system, select a CURT 5th wheel hitch with the appropriate OEM puck system roller or roller adapter.

Do you prefer permanent base rails?

If your truck does not have the OEM puck system, you will need to install 5th wheel rails. The traditional method for installing base rails is to use vehicle-specific under-bed brackets. First, select the custom under-bed brackets that fit your specific make and model, as well as a set of industry-standard base rails. Next, if you have a long-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with legs. If you have a short-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with a roller. Remember to always abide by the weight capacity of the lowest-rated towing component.

Would you like the option to easily remove the base rails?

Another 5th wheel mounting option is a gooseneck hitch. Using the CURT Double Lock EZr or Double Lock gooseneck and X5 adapter plate allows you to have a removable set of industry-standard 5th wheel base rails. First, select the Double Lock EZr gooseneck hitch kit that fits your specific make and model. Next, select the corresponding X5 adapter plate. Finally, if you have a long-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with legs. If you have a short-bed truck, select a 5th wheel hitch with a roller.
