Thank you for choosing the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection!
Extremely lightweight and strong, the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection will give you the ultimate 5th wheel experience from installation to
your destination. This indispensable product adapts a kingpin style 5th wheel trailer pin box so it can attach to a raised 2-5/16” ball hitch
– giving you a smooth, solid and safe driving experience. The Ultimate Connection can be installed in a short amount of time with only a
few tools.
Read the entire manual before towing a 5th wheel trailer using the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection
Failure to follow all safety warnings could result in severe injury or even death. Read and understand the manufacturer’s instructions for
your trailer, tow vehicle and hitching equipment. Follow all safety warnings, setup instructions and recommended maintenance before
installing your hitch.
Check for parts before installation
When you unpack your Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection, compare it with the Parts List on page 3. If any parts appear to be missing or
damaged, DO NOT RETURN IT TO YOUR DEALER. Instead, contact us directly using the contact information below. If the packaging
appears to be damaged, please include pictures of the packaging in your email. If you ever lose or damage any part of your Ultimate
5th Wheel Connection, visit AndersenHitches.com or contact customerservice@anderseninc.com for replacements.
Make sure you have a 2-5/16” gooseneck ball already installed (not included)
The Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection hooks to your current 2-5/16” gooseneck ball and under bed system (we do not offer
in-bed gooseneck balls or under bed systems). Please refer to the manufacturer’s instructions regarding installation and use of your
gooseneck system.
± IMPORTANT Measure for turning pin box clearance
Make sure you have enough clearance for your pin box so it does not hit your truck when turning (see instructions in Section
1 and Section 3). As with any 5th wheel hitch, there is a point beyond which every trailer will contact the tow vehicle. Each trailer is
unique, so become familiar with your specic vehicle/trailer limitations. When turning or reversing sharply in your tow vehicle, be very
aware of the front corners and nose of your trailer so they do not hit the windows or cab of your tow vehicle.
Before each trip..
Before each trip—and regularly during a trip—check all hardware, bolts and nuts for wear and fatigue, and make sure that
they are all properly tightened and that all pins and clips are secured in place. Make sure the kingpin coupler is coupled properly to the
kingpin and to the Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection ball and that it is secured in place using the remote latch.
