Gen-Y Auto Latch 3.5-5.5k PIN/25k GTW Gooseneck hitch FOR SALE
GH-8065AL Executive Torsion-Flex Fifth Wheel to Gooseneck, 2 5/16" ball, 3.5-5.5k PIN weight, gross trailer weight 25k. Chain and hooks included. Purchased Dec 2020 and used about 6 times so far for about 1,500 miles. I thought my pin weight would be enough to flex the torsion mechanism but it just meets minimum. I need the lighter one so it flexes more often. I bought the heavy one with the expectation of getting a heavy fiver in the future. The stiffness is too much to wait that long. Oh well.
Asking $1300. Shipping would be crazy because the unit is very heavy. I live in the north Texas area, Fort Worth.

Well, I'm curious if that's what they sold you, size wise or did you want that one? So originally they sold me a 3.5 and it was sacked out, then they bumped me up to a 3.5-5.5 and I thought it was going to be too much. I actually wanted a 4.5 but I listened to them. The 5.5 doesn't move much and it's a stiffer ride than the 3.5 was by far. Doesn't seem like it articulates much.

Yes, Gen-Y recommended the 3.5-5.5and I went with that thinking it would work and the fact I would be getting a heavier fifth wheel. It does not articulate much at all. It’s way too stiff for the 351M unless your pin is steady at 4K or heavier. 4.5k would probly work the best. I tried customer service but was eventually told they couldn’t do anything to help me. I would need to buy another. Thx
