Overview
The SB116 is a heavy-duty adjustable gooseneck coupler with a 24,000 lb rating, 16" offset, round tube configuration, and 2-5/16" ball application. The offset design is commonly used where additional truck cab, tailgate, bed rail, or trailer nose clearance is needed. Always verify trailer tube size, installed height, and clearance requirements before ordering.
R&P Service Insight
Gooseneck coupler fitment depends on more than weight rating. Tube diameter, coupler style, offset, installed height, ball size, and trailer clearance all need to match the trailer and tow vehicle setup.
- Tube Check: Confirm your trailer accepts a compatible 4" ID round tube coupler before ordering.
- Clearance Check: Offset couplers can help with clearance, but the trailer nose and tow vehicle bed still need to be measured.
- Capacity Check: Coupler capacity must be appropriate for the trailer’s rated towing requirements.
R&P Knowledge Hub
Compatibility: Verify the receiving tube style and size before ordering. This coupler is listed for compatible 4" ID round tube applications.
Vehicle / System Fit: Used on gooseneck trailer coupler systems with a 2-5/16" hitch ball connection.
Installation Notes: Confirm installed height, pin or adjustment hardware requirements, coupler engagement, and clearance around the truck bed and trailer nose before towing.
Performance Insight: The 16" offset design is intended to create additional working clearance compared with a straight coupler, especially on setups where truck-to-trailer spacing is tight.

R&P Repair Insight
When replacing a gooseneck coupler, compare the old coupler against the new one before removing or modifying any trailer components. A mismatch in tube diameter, height range, or offset can prevent proper installation or safe towing.
- Measure First: Measure the trailer’s receiving tube and confirm round tube compatibility.
- Check Offset Need: Confirm that a 16" offset is appropriate for your truck and trailer combination.
- Inspect Hardware: Verify adjustment hardware, pins, bolts, and coupler engagement before use.
