Fuzion gooseneck height

[Quexa]

I need a measurement from the ground to the bottom of the gooseneck, so I can see what my bed rail clearance is. I need the measurement when the rig is level however it seems the dealer wont send me what I need, keeps saying I need to bring the truck in. Thank you Any Fuzion toyhauler will work!

Welcome to the forum

To be clear what measurement your looking for:

Fifth wheels come from the factory with a pin box and king pin. A goose neck is a hitch that uses a ball. Both are adjustable and if your using a fifth wheel hitch, the head can be adjusted to achieve the proper clearance.

A king pin will extend forward and about 12 inches down from the pin box. A goose neck will extend less forward and down about 36-48 inches.

Picture of a traditional pin box here ( this specific one has an upgrade, but the overall profile is the same)

Thanks, I actually meant the bottom of the trailer, I call the front of a fifth wheel a gooseneck , not meaning the hitch. The measurement I need in from the fiberglass to the ground. Thank you

Mine is 60 inches. From the fiberglass to the ground at the front where the king pin is at level.
