B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
Awesome product and easy install! 2007 tundra pulling ultra light weight 5th wheel.
2007 Toyota Tundra DC 6.5' Bed Follow the instructions. I had the cross-members and cross-member braces turned the wrong way and thought I was in BIG trouble with the hole lining up with the center section. The kit is well put together and has EVERYTHING you need for the install -tools. Make use of the "Overhead Lifting Device" mentioned in the very beginning. This makes it much easier to get bolts installed in the center section and cross-members. I just tied a rope to the latch pin in the ball socket and wrapped it around a truss in my garage. The heat shield removed in step 2 will not be re-used. Have a small 1/2" drive drill on hand. My 4" hole-saw and 1/2" bits would not fit in a 3/8" drill chuck. I had to use a ginormous Makita hammer drill which made it more difficult particularly with the 1/2" holes for the safety chain u-bolts. Would highly recommend this kit. Everything is well built, well documented, and complete.

I purchased this to pull a 25Ton GN trailer with heavy equipment and so far it works great! Good price point and reliable product. I would highly recommend this product and trailer. Thank you!
It’s been about a year now of use with my gooseneck trailers. What a great improvement from using the hitch under the bumper. Still solid and functions flawlessly. Make sure to lube the pin that locks the ball, if grime gets in there it gums it up and doesn’t release it completely.

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
After having this hitch for a year I can’t say I’m too impressed. They claim the powdercoat on it is durable, but after only a year there’s already spots of rust. The pictures I’ve included are only showing a few spots I’ve noticed. I painted the pieces that sit against my frame with frame paint in hopes that doesn’t rust either. But the outside facing pieces, I haven’t touched. My truck is stored in the winter and the hitch hasn’t even been used yet since purchase. I’m sure it performs well since my last gooseneck hitch was B&W. But as for durability, I don’t think they do as well anymore. It shouldn’t be this rusty only after a year, being stored, not seeing salt or even being used.
Product arrived in a timely manner, although it took awhile I was able to install it completely by myself. It was sturdy and looked good, fit well and went together nicely. I used it the next day to bring home a trailer a friend had gifted me. The turnover feature is really great, when not used the hitch ball is turned over, I put the truck bedliner back in and you do not even know it is there.

Curt Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Ram 2500 - 30,000 lbs
Easy install. Just what I needed to prep our truck for our fifth wheel. Installation videos are very helpful. Thanks etrailer!!
Loved how eazy product installed instructions on hitch was great. Found on etrailer.com a video of how to install hitch. U will have to remove heat shild and exuast pipe to make much easier to in stall. The trailer ball is sweet u just flip up latch and turn then it's free to remove. Ordered hitch on Saturday free shipping and they called me to make sure it was shipping to right location. Then they emailed me when it shiped. It arrived on Tuesday on the same week. The price was great to. Will use hitch to pull 25 ft hay trailer and 24 foot stock trailer.

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
Install went well. Was shipped the wrong plates with the nuts in them but customer service reacted quickly and got me what the ones I needed.
This definitely is not a plug and play mechanism. There is interference with the lever to unlock the ball and it hitting one of the bolts. I had to shave the bolt down to make it even slide by, in addition to this I had to cut about 1/4” off the mechanism lever for it to open all the way and not hit the bracket on the truck. So in summary I had to make two cuts into the product to make it even function properly. Poor quality control.

Unit installed and pulled my fifth wheel to provincetowne Mass. Unhooked and pulled the ball out and picked up some firewood. Nice flat surface. Love it. Only way to go.
Great value and durability. Self install in about 3 hours and has remained solid since then. Put in about 10k miles towing a 31 foot trailer with it.

Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch w/ Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
This fits exactly as described. The ease of installation was great. I would definitely recommend using the sizing from etrailer, it’s perfect.
I like the hitch but when ai am pulling my trailers, and I am moving them around at low speeds it seems that there is a good amount of movement in the hitch and the feel in the truck. I’m not sure what that is but I have used trucks that didn’t have that feel in them but mine definitely does. We followed all directions and torqued all bolts to the required amount. Maybe someone can shed some light on what that maybe. Thanks

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
Fantastic product!! Hardest part is drilling the holes in the frame for safety chain loops. Remove the spare tire for ease of access and have several swivels and extensions for mounting.
Once installed, performs as promised. Perfect fitment in a 2022 Ram 2500 short bed. Used it for my fifth wheel for over 800 miles last year with no concerns. Ready for more this year. I would recommend bed removal for the easiest install. I did it with bed on and it was tricky. Especially when torqueing the bolts down. But it’s possible. Like others have said, this hitch would be that much better if the safety chain u bolts sat flush with the bed.

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
I love my hitch . I love how I can turn it over and I can still have use of the full truck bed. I could of bought a cheaper hitch but the quality is by far better than other hitches I have owned in the past. Customer service was great after they helped me fix my ordering mistake. Very happy with my hitch.
I was very satisfied from ordering to instillation. Great people and very concerned about your satisfaction. Instructions were complete and easy to follow. Saved approximately 50% in cost. Thanks etrailer

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
The hitch is beefy and seem to be very strong. My guess is the truck frame will give before the hitch. Great quality. I very happy! I'm an above average backyard mechanic and found the installation doable, but a little of a challenge. Differently need a help. My wife was a big help. I use a 2X4 across my bed and a ratchet strap to lift and hold the center section in to position. I also had to reposition my exhaust pipe where it goes over the differential to get some clearance. Also, I had to drill out one of the square holes in the tailpipe L bracket to receive the factory bolt.
I received this hitch right after I broke my foot. When I saw the package I noticed one end was damaged in shipping. I received a phone call asking how the install was going and explained that it was going to be awhile before I could install it. When I finally got to it everything was there and it installed perfectly. I received a follow up email asking if everything went well and if I was missing anything. Awesome company to deal with. Thank you George

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Flatbed Trucks - 30,000 lbs
This unit was very handy to be able to purchase and install on my Bradford Built flatbed so that I could install my B&W companion hitch with flatbed base on the truck. The welding was all fairly straight forward and didn't require much except for a few washers and a piece of flat steel for a spacer. The one down side is that the hitch pin/handle does not have any built in twist-n-lock method to lock it so the pin remains disengaged for the ball or companion assembly install like on the common B&W under truck bed assemblies I've had on several trucks. We ended up installing the pin slightly out of line so that the tip of the pin would catch on the exterior of the receiver when pulled out and then when I wanted to engage the pin just push up on the handle and press the pin back in. I do like that I can still cover the hitch hole with the cover plate as seen in the picture.
I got a reduce price on a B&W weld in five wheel ball mount do to cosmetic scathing on tow ball which was almost non excestant save 65 dollars as usual B&W makes the most high qaulty parts and e trail are always excellent shipping was faster than they said. Thx again for passing on the savings to the customer

Between the videos and the instructions it was very easy to follow. If you’re like me and don’t want to cut your fender liners I simply removed the front bed bolts and jacked one side up to slide in the mounting rails. The only fender I had to cut was the drivers side to allow for the latch pin lever. I really like just how “flush” the hitch really is once you turn over the ball. Overall very impressed with the hitch so far and have already recommended the hitch to other family members and friends.
Your product has worked very well and helped us enjoy many camping trips with our RV. Instillation was very doable even for a novice to that kind of install. Thanks for producing a quality product. I would encourage others to trust your hitch products!

Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch w/ Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
Got this for our new camper last year. Did the installation myself with a few buddies very straight forward directions. We use a Reese goose box with the curt 4” off set ball on our 08 short bed truck! Would definitely recommend
Great product and perfect fit for my 2005 GMC Sierra duramax. I just purchased a Montana fifth wheel and wanted to still be able to use the bed of the truck without taking a heavy hitch in and out and breaking my back. The hitch arrived really fast and the boxes were in pretty good shape and I was only missing one washer from a torn parts bag. I was able to install the hitch that weekend with help of the directions and how to YouTube video. The only issue I had was that the video stated the crossbar with the notch went to the rear while the directions showed it going to the front. It definitely goes to the front and was pretty obvious when installing it. I didn’t have any real issues with the install and it looks great and hides away nicely leaving a clean flat bed. I look forward to hauling my fifth wheel real soon.

Curt Double Lock, Flip and Store Underbed Gooseneck Hitch w/ Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
Great product w great instructions. It was an affordable package that installed decently. We have used the hitch for a year now and have had zero issues w it. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars was because the cross bars that go between the frame rails needed to have the threaded holes chased w a tap to remove the powder coating prior to installation. I initially tried installing it without chasing the threads and the bolts started to get very tight before the parts even pulled together. Once the threads were clean, everything assembled very well. The hitch takes time to install, at least if you want it to look good and be correct. On a 1500 ram, you will probably need to install some form of helper spring or air bags to prevent the rear from squatting from the weight of the gooseneck trailer…the factory 1500 coil springs are not firm enough on their own.
Ordered this after deciding to go with it over a B&W kit due to me not using it a whole lot and the price difference. When I received the package 1/2 the hardware was missing because the inner box it was in was all broke apart and the outer box was not sealed up. So I would have to give the packaging and shipping one star because I had to go spend an extra $75 on grade 8 hardware. The paper directions were not totally clear on several thing so we resorted to the video which helped a lot. The two large carriage bolts that go in the rear cross member are a little deceiving because the video makes it seem like they slip right in. However, the heads were larger than the pass through in the frame rails so it took quite a bit of extra time and ingenuity to get those fished through there with the plates.(The carriage bolts survived shipping so they were what came with the kit). In the video it showed where he cut a large u out of the inner fender to clear the pull handle and notched the bed that looked kind of sloppy. With a few extra measurements you can just cut a hole in both for handle to slide through and give it a much cleaner look. Definitely recommend putting a bolt through receiver holes and using a strap to hold up center plate through hole in bed after you get it into place. Makes life a lot easier until you get the bolt ls in. Overall this hitch works and functions great. Install went pretty smooth with two people and I would recommend it to anyone needing a hitch.

This is the BEST gooseneck hitch! Excellent quality & great customer service
Has been working well. Although it's a DIY project, I had it installed by my mechanic. Did an excellent job and I've not had any issues. As this is only 1 year old installed, I give 4 stars. Still solid in bed and looks good. Hauling my 14k 5th wheel has been much easier than installing a 5th wheel hitch and losing bed space. I would recommend this product.

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
This was my first order I placed with et etrailer. If one work could say it I guess it would perfect! I ordered on a Tuesday arrived on Thursday. I Placed the order got conformation and a name and contact to call if I had any issues, once it arrived I got another email letting me know if had been delivered. The installation video was perfect made it’s easy to install just followed the steps. When I need any trailer related items I will use them. As far as the B&W hitch i put it in a 2017 Ram 2500 with Ram boxes. The fit and quality of the hitch and design is what I have come to expect from B&W. I got this hitch to pull a gooseneck horse trailer. If your wondering if it will work with Ram Boxes it will.
Needed fifth whl installed, I dropped spare tire moved out of way, then sat in area under truck where spare tire sat. Marked and drilled center pilot hole, cut out ball hole inside bed.

In bed marked chain hooks, drilled and installed. Lubed up fifth, wheel attached handle release, applied herculin er on edges of hole,. Reinstalled all. 3.5 hrs install by 1 person. Ready for 5th wheel pull. Great price medium install level, need drill bits, air tools, jack, and plan the install.

B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs
4.9 out of 5 stars Etrailer provides an installation video from 2017 which, given my “new” F350 in 2024 is, in fact, a 2017 year, one would presume to be appropriate - but, in fact, B&W has tweaked its product just a bit so there were a few, small headscratchers. Most important of these were drop-in (well, hammer in) threaded busing inserts in place of the previous threading in some of the brackets. But overall, the surprises all were positive ones. Most importantly, against my dread, I did NOT have to drop my DEF tank, even though my truck has the very long 48-gallon diesel tank. Nor did I have to extract any heat shield…or even lower the exhaust. This is my second B&W Turnover install - the prior was in 2008 - and this went even more smoothly than the prior time. Lastly, a point of uniqueness: Etrailer’s free shipping applies only for the lower 48. Shipping this ~150-lb product to Alaska would have set me back another $243. But, in that we needed to fly to Seattle, I had the hitch sent to WA and - to the eye-raises of the AK Air employees - managed to check four small but mighty heavy boxes of just under 50 lbs. each and pay no surcharges other than Washington State sales tax. A win!
Installation was very easy. Everything lined up perfectly. I did not need the inner brackets. I have a 2019 Ford f250 platinum. Absolutely amazing. Another great B and W hitch!!

Installed on a 1995 powerstroke, slight modification required to make my air bags sit correct, but only to the air bag brackets not the hitch. I pull a 32’ stock trailer and exceeded the hitch manufactures weight rating on a weekly basis. Self installed and It has been on for about a year with no trouble. This seems to be just as strong as the B&W on my other pickup that I’ve had for more than 10 years.
Awesome gooseneck Hitch!!! Easy installation !!!

Using this hitch to pull a horse trailer with a Chevy Silverado with the factory puck system. Couldn’t be any easier to use and has performed flawlessly. Worth every penny.
Exactly what I was looking for. Gooseneck ball that is taller than OEM.
