A slidable hitch adapter for transporting a trailer, such as a gooseneck trailer, is provided. The slidable hitch adapter may be installed in the bed of a truck and may be adjusted to any of a plurality of positions for improved stability or maneuverability when towing, braking, parking, turning, and navigating irregular terrain. The slidable hitch adapter includes a locking pin which may be in a locked position or an unlocked position. In the locked position, the adapter can withstand substantial lateral forces, such as those encountered during transport of a trailer engaged by the adapter. In the unlocked position, the adapter hitch position may be adjusted to prepare the adapter for towing, braking, parking, turning, or navigating irregular terrain.
