This setup is made to pull serious weight with a gross towing weight rating of 20,000 lbs and a vertical load limit of 5,000 lbs. The wide-stance base and gray powder coated steel frame give it the strength and corrosion resistance you want for long hauls. When you’re towing a fully loaded fifth wheel, toy hauler, or RV, it stays planted and steady mile after mile.
The dual-jaw design wraps fully around the king pin for 360-degree contact. That’s what cuts down on rattle and movement compared with slide-bar designs. The polyurethane bushings between the head and pivot arms absorb road shock and stop metal-on-metal clanking, giving you a quieter, smoother ride that feels solid from hook-up to park.
The cam-action latching handle makes coupling and uncoupling simple—even when the truck and trailer aren’t perfectly level. If there’s any binding pressure, just move the handle to open and pull forward; the jaws release cleanly without a fight. It locks closed with the included pin and clip, or you can use a 5/16" padlock with a 3" height and 2-1/4" width for extra security.
When the trip’s over, this hitch breaks down fast into two pieces so you can remove it without equipment. The base connects directly to the included Turnoverball gooseneck hitch—no extra parts needed. Pull the hitch out and flip the gooseneck ball upside down for a flat bed surface with just one hole in the center. It’s an easy way to switch from towing mode back to full bed use in minutes.
Getting your trailer level is simple with three height settings from 16-1/4" to 18-1/4" plus fore-and-aft adjustment on the pivot arms. You can fine-tune cab clearance or balance your load depending on your trailer height. The fully articulating head pivots front-to-back and side-to-side to follow the trailer naturally, helping reduce chucking and keeping everything stable on uneven ground.
This fifth-wheel trailer hitch is not compatible with Sidewinder or Revolution king pins. Do not use any device that changes the pivot point of your trailer's king pin with this hitch.

Today we're going to take a look at the BMW Turnover Ball Under Bed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch. It has a 30,000 pound weight capacity. Now this is a heavy duty under bed hitch that will let you tow your gooseneck trailer, and what's nice is with this BMW Turnover Ball Under Bed Gooseneck Hitch, you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the turnover ball creates a nice sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer and then when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get a full truck bed access and clean appearance. Basically to do that all you have to do is take this access handle, pull it into the open position, take your ball out, flip it right over, there's a little handle on the bottom of it, flip it upside down, drop it back into the hitch, release the handle, and it's locked into place. This is under the bed, so you have full truck bed access.Now on the end of this handle there's a 5/8 inch thick spring loaded steel locking pin on the end of the handle.
It goes all the way through the ball, secures it into place. And this handle you will access at your rear diver's side wheel well. Let's go ahead and take it back out.Now on this hitch they do use a single piece machine ball socket. Provides nice rugged durability. If you look on the hitch ball itself it's a square ball base.
Prevents the ball from turning in the hitch during hook up. And if you notice the edges of the corners, they are chamfered. They call that a corners only fit, and basically that will prevent the grime from building up inside the hitch. So when you drop it into place, it's open on the corners and the dirt will fall through, it doesn't build up. Also, if you notice it does include these spring loaded safety chain hook ups which are built in.And to install this it's a very simple installation.
Now a custom installation kit is required. We do sell that separately on our website. You just put in your year and model vehicle and it will show you what installation kit's needed. And then this will bolt right into the center of that installation kit. Now you do also have to drill a four inch diameter hole into the truck bed to be able to access the opening.
And then four 1/2 inch diameter holes for the safety chain hook ups.Now this is a nice powder coated steel. It's very sturdy and corrosion resistant. The parts are made in the USA. A few specs on this again, the gross towing weight capacity is 30,000 pounds, ton weight capacity is 7,500 pounds, and the hitch ball, the gooseneck ball size is a standard 2 5/16 diameter. But again, it's locked into place, so you're ready to tow. When you're done towing, it's not licked into place when you release it, and then that locks it into place. And then to remove it, just pull it out, twist it to lock it, pull it out. To store it, flip it right over, release the pin and it's locked into place.But that should do it for the review on the BMW Turnover Ball Under Bed Gooseneck Trailer hitch with the 30,000 pound weight capacity.

Thanks for your kind words, Stephen! We do our best and are always happy to hear when we do it right! ^___^ And I agree about B&W parts. They are beefy and can last a lifetime. Plus they are American made! Always a plus in my book. What are you going to be towing?

One year later and zero complaints. The hitch operates smoothly with no signs of wear. Still very pleased! My 5th wheel weighs in around 15,500lbs loaded and we even pull a golf cart trailer behind occasionally. I have no reservations using this hitch.

This is by far the best fifth wheel hitch I have ever used and I have used several. It’s very easy to hitch and unhitch and I don’t have to be perfectly lined up to hitch and unhitch. I highly recommend this product.
