Popup fifth wheel to gooseneck adapter
Is anyone using a Popup fifth wheel to gooseneck adapter? I would like to find out what the bolt pattern is for mounting it to the pin box. My used fifth wheel apparantlly had an adapter at one time that had 3/8ths holes on about 5 3/4" centers. I am trying to find out if it was a Popup that was mounted on it before I got it.

Beware if you use a gooseneck adapter you will incur in a lot of frame twist.
If your trailer is short (I have a 26ft) it won't be too bad, but if it's above that you will have to pay attention where you drive, or your wall joints, wood frame, etc. will separate or crack.
