Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Conversion System
30K Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Adapter 4\" Round Drilled King Pin Wallace Forge
SKU: 2085205-DRILLED
Heavy-duty 4-inch round adapter designed to convert gooseneck trailers for use with standard 5th wheel hitches. Features pre-drilled holes for secure mechanical pinning and maximum height adjustability.
Fits 4\" I.D. Outer Tubes
30K GTW Heavy-Duty Build
Overview
The 2085205-DRILLED is a structural steel adapter that replaces the inner tube of a standard gooseneck coupler. By converting the connection point to a 2\" SAE Kingpin, this adapter allows you to pull your gooseneck trailer with a standard 5th wheel plate. The \"Drilled\" configuration is preferred for heavy-haul applications, as the pre-machined 7/8\" holes allow for a through-pin connection, providing a mechanical failsafe alongside traditional set screws.
R&P Service Insight
This adapter is essential for fleets or owners moving between different truck hitch configurations.
- Raw Steel: Shipped unpainted to allow for custom welding if required.
- Secure Pinning: Mechanical holes prevent tube \"creep\" under heavy loads.
- Standardized Fit: 2\" Kingpin works with all major 5th wheel hitch brands.
