Convert your gooseneck hitch into a set of 5th wheel rails with the CURT X5 Gooseneck-to-5th-Wheel Adapter Plate (Part #16210). Designed for CURT Double Lock gooseneck hitches — the adapter's round shank inserts into the gooseneck ball hole and locks with your hitch's existing locking mechanism. Provides industry-standard 5th wheel base rails on top to accept any rail-mount 5th wheel hitch. Rated to 20,000 lb gross trailer weight. Practically instantaneous conversion — no assembly or tools required. Backed by CURT's limited lifetime warranty.
⭐ Instantaneous Gooseneck → 5th Wheel Conversion
Standout convenience benefit vs installing dedicated 5th wheel rails: insert the shank, apply the locking mechanism, and you have a sturdy pair of 5th wheel rails. Meaningful for:
- Occasional 5th wheel towing — gooseneck as primary, 5th wheel when needed
- Buyers with an under-bed gooseneck already installed — no need to install a second setup
- Full truck bed access preserved — remove the adapter and the gooseneck hitch when not towing either
- No drilling, no permanent modifications
⭐ Multi-Point Mounting
The adapter plate features multiple mounting points that accept either 5th wheel legs or a 5th wheel roller. Meaningful compatibility with the full range of rail-mount 5th wheel hitches on the market.
