Has anyone ever converted a pintle hitch trailer to a gooseneck? I have a Case 580ck that weighs about 9300#s that I want to transport(often) with a Chevy 3500. A trailer rated at 14000 would work but only with a gooseneck. I've found that used gooseneck trailers are about twice the price of used pintle hitch trailers(if you can find them). I am a experienced machinist and welder with the resources to do the work. I've located a used triaxle pintle hitch trailer rated 18K in good condition in my price range. Is there any problems in doing the conversion? Thanks in advance!
