| %th wheel hitches Hi, I have a Drawtite in bed 16K slider hitch. I have never had any problems with this setup, but it leaves the rails on the floor of the bed. That being said, if I was to do it again I would go with the B&W hidden turn over ball hitch. You would be able to go both goose neck and fifth wheel companion hitch and have a clear bed. Now to answer your question. The goose neck will be more ridgid with no side to side movement as a fifth wheel head would have foward/back/side to side allowing the trailer to absorb more movement and transfer less movement to the tow vehicle. I have heard plus and miniuses both ways, but I have had my best ride in the truck with the fifth wheel hitch. And even better when adding a air suspension to the trailer's 5th wheel pin box. I hope this will give some insight.
Jim
