Freaking sweet!!! How come you ditched the trailer/GN conversion idea? That's exactly what I'd like to do for my dump trailer...put the GN on for me and take if off when my buddies borrow it that don't have a GN. But it sounds like you saw some issues with this approach and ditched it. Interested in learning why/what to look out for. Also wondering why you went for the upside down fifth wheel connector plate for the bed of your truck vs. a regular GN ball connection. thx

I didn't have any issues with all set up I just needed a two car trailer now I'm making a wedge trailer so I'm thinking of going back.it's just easier to have the 5 wheel on the trailer rather than a truck I didn't want to have the rails in bed
