A fifth wheel hitch uses a kingpin and pin receiver setup to connect your trailer to your truck. This type of hitch takes up a lot of space in your truck bed and is mostly used for campers. Fifth wheel hitches arenâ€t recommended for gooseneck trailers. Itâ€s best to use a gooseneck horse trailer hitch like a bolt in style hitch or a fold down hitch for your gooseneck trailer. Bolt on gooseneck hitch installation is much less risky than other types of hitch installation. However, if you already have a camper and a fifth wheel hitch, itâ€s possible to adapt your gooseneck horse trailer to work with your existing fifth wheel hitch.
