Most Popular Wheel Well Release for 2019 Ram 2500

Not a bad install at all. Pretty straight forward.

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.

This seems to be very solidly constructed. It weighs around 50 lbs, but can be installed by one person being a little creative. eTrailer's installer in the video is some kind of wizard - he makes it look easy. Access is not very good, though having the truck on a lift might help. The hitch does exactly what it is intended to do - gooseneck ball up for attaching the Blue Ox 5th wheel hitch, pull the lever and turn it over in the socket to get your whole bed back when you don't need it. Just picked the 5th wheel up and towed it about 2 hours home through the mountains, and I didn't notice any movement out of the hitch setup. Kit was missing one of the mounting bolts, but eTrailer contacted B&W to get one sent right away. It showed up just in time to get the camper. Installation wasn't easy, but B&W had to work with what Ram gave them, so the design was about as good as it could be. The self-cleaning anti-seize socket and square ball base are excellent touches.

The install went well. Like the mounting kit. Works well.

Quality hitch. Everything went together like it was supposed to. Installation took longer than I expected but if I had to do it again it would go a little faster

Ordered on a Friday, received on Saturday the next day. Haven’t installed yet but I’m sure it will go smoothly and do just what it is designed to do.

I purchased and installed the hitch myself for my Dodge 2500 Mega cab. Carefully measured and marked the hole locations in my bed, just as the directions indicated. Just like that and a short time later I was finished. I like the turnover design and easy-to-follow instructions.

Called customer service, actually spoke with a real person, Karen, and she verified the B&W hitch kit I needed. She gave email updates on my order. It arrived fast and in good condition. Installed B&W gooseneck hitch, holes did not line up as B&W states. I had to drill holes in the frame myself to continue installation. All else went well. Etrailer/Karen 5 stars and B/W 4 stars.

Hello the gooseneck in bed hitch has been a great addition to my truck pullong a 40 ft long trailer fully loaded thanks for the great hitch

this installed correctly on my 2005 dodge ram 2500 diesel per instructions for installation with air bags. I have hauled a 42 foot 3 axle car trailer for over 6,000 miles with no issues. This was a great purchase. Thank you

The service I received from etrailer was exceptional , the product is top quality and it was delivered in no time at all I would certainly recommend this company to anyone that need any kind of trailer or towing equipment

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!

Missing hardware took 2 weeks to get new hardware and it was the wrong hardware so I had to go spend extra money and aggravation to buy my own hardware that should have came in the kit

Easy to put in and after a year I’ve had no issues.

The Hitch came faster than expected It took about 2 hours to install thanks to etrailer's [on-line video]instructions very happy

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.

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.

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.

I have purchased this turnover ball for my 2019 F250, 2015 F350 as well as the 2015 Chevy 2500 and honestly could not be more impressed! I have chose etrailer for all purchases and I don’t see why I wouldn’t for the next! Extremely impressed with the product and service!

This was not to difficult to install. The most nerve racking part was cutting a hole in the bed of my truck. So far the finish is holding up to the weather and none of the bolts have come loose. Now, I just need to get a Gen Y or Reese Goosebox for my 5th wheel to eliminate the giant hitch in the back of my truck!

The kit arrived in two days. The quality is very good. All the parts fit as described. We were able to install it in a few hours without a lift. We plan on pulling a 14,000 # trailer to move farm equipment. This trailer will replace an old 12,000# pintle hitch trailer. I would definitely recommend this kit to others.

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

Worked out great. Easy install on a 2016 Chevy 2500.

I was converting a fixed/welded gooseneck ball on a CM flatbed to a removable one so I could also use a B&W Companion Flatbed Gooseneck to 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch adapter. Although it wasn’t easy to find someone to cutout the old ball and install the new turnover ball, it was done expertly and the hitch works perfectly! Very easy to operate from the wheel well and turn over for a flat area for cargo. Always had a turnover ball in the past and highly recommend this one for a conversion.

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.

EASY FAST INSTALLATION

Easy to install.

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

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.

Seems to be as described. I haven’t yet used it to tow anything, but the instructions were accurate. Installed on my 2003 f-350. It did take quite a bit longer than I thought. Started around 1pm and got wrapped up around 6. At first it didn’t look like things were lining up right, but everything moved into place as I snugged bolts down and torqued as the sequence in the instructions say. I love how it sits flush and is so user friendly once installed. I have used the same type of hitch on a truck at the fire station, so I’m familiar with how they work and they have always been great for me and others. I just dropped a star for how long the install took compared to their estimate. I’m not new to turning wrenches either, but it didn’t look like things were lining up at first.

Great hitch. Used it several times to haul my cattle trailer no issues. Very easy to install with minimal tools. Everything fit well. I have a rubber bed mat and the rubber hitch cover is almost the exact same thickness making the bed %100 usable when the hitch is in storage. It also does a great job of keeping dirt out of the hitch.

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.

Installed this in my 2022 GMC 2500 HD. Bed was not factory prepped. Easy installation if you follow very detailed directions.

etrailer was great to work with. Hitch was shipped as expected and all parts were accounted for. This is the second B&W Turnover ball I have installed. Previously on my 2017 Chevy 2500. I watched the on line install videos a couple of times before starting work. That made it a breeze to install. I will say installing the hitch on the 2021 Chevy was much easier than the older units. The brackets are a lot easier to maneuver into place. I used a motorcycle strap suspended from a board across the bedrails to hold the plate in place. This was the only time I needed a 2nd hand. The rest can be done with one person.

Easy enough to install. Directions are clear and the video online helped a lot. The little ring on top I made to give it a more finished look around the cutout. It would be nice if B & W included a piece like this with the kit, even if made of plastic. But, very happy with it.

We use a lot with a dump trailer and a horse trailer. No issues, smooth!
