With the B&W Turnoverball underbed gooseneck trailer hitch you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer. And when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get full bed access and a clean appearance.


Easy-to-Remove, Simple-to-Store Hitch Ball

The durable steel hitch ball included with the Turnoverball system secures in the hitch with a sturdy, 5/8" thick steel pin that is incorporated into the end of the operating handle. To lock the ball in place, drop it into the hitch hole in the bed of your truck. Then rotate the handle in your driver's-side wheel well counterclockwise until the latch engages. When the latch is engaged, the spring-loaded pin on the end of the handle will be inserted all the way through the base of the hitch ball, forming a strong, solid connection and ensuring absolute security when you're towing.


B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch Operation

When you're done towing, remove the hitch ball by simply pulling the handle out as far as it will go and then rotating it clockwise until it unlatches. Remove the ball, flip it upside down, and drop it back into the ball hole of the hitch. Then reengage the latch to secure the stowed ball in place.


Unlike typical gooseneck balls - which have round bases - the Turnoverball hitch ball is designed with a square base. This makes latching the ball in the hitch easier because the base won't rotate inside of the hitch like a round base might, so lining the pin up is a snap. The base of the ball also fits tightly within the ball hole during storage. Because only the corners of the base contact the sides of the socket, any dirt or grime that gets into the hitch will fall through the socket, thus helping to prevent any buildup that could cause the ball to seize up in the hitch.


Simple, Custom Installation

This hitch is custom designed for your vehicle. The included mounting brackets bolt to existing holes in your truck's frame. While some modification is required - you will need to cut a 4" diameter hole in your bed for the hitch ball and drill holes for the built-in safety chain loops - there is no need to weld onto or to drill into your frame.


Operation Handle

Once you have the hitch brackets and body installed, set up the operating handle. This handle is designed to be accessed from the rear driver's-side wheel well. On the end of the handle is the heavy-duty steel pin that secures the hitch ball.


B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch Accessories

B&W makes it easy to tow just about anything. With the many adapters and accessories available, the Turnoverball can be made to work with almost any gooseneck trailer. Hitch balls are available that have a built-in rise, an offset, and even a different connection type. Add on the Companion fifth-wheel hitch - which attaches directly to the Turnoverball with no other parts required - and you can tow your fifth-wheel trailer.

See what our Experts say about this B and W Gooseneck Hitch

  • Are Inner Brackets of B and W Gooseneck Hitch Needed When Installing In 2026 Ford Truck
    Hey Chris, in the instructions for the B and W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch part # BW73FR that you referenced it says that the inner brackets are not needed if the truck has the inner brackets for the OEM hitch already welded to the truck frame. In the picture you submitted I see the inner frame brackets that would normally be used to install the OEM gooseneck hitch so you are good to use just the outer brackets.

  • Will the Air Lift Air Bags Work w/ a 2025 Ford F-350 w/ a B&W Gooseneck Hitch?
    Hey Jeff. The Air Lift LoadLifter 7500 XL Ultimate Air Helper Springs item # AL83DQ, you were looking at, are compatible with the B&W item # BW73FR, however they are only for the dually models of the 2025 Ford F-350. For the non-dually F-350 you'll want the Air Lift item # AL89DQ that is also compatible with the B&W item # BW73FR. I recommend adding the Firestone Air Command Heavy Duty Air Compressor item # F56VV to your F-350. This onboard compressor will allow you to adjust the PSI in...

  • Is Removing Rear Shock on 2024 Ford F-350 an Issue With B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch
    Hey Michael, Really good question, and I reached out to B&W for you, who said there will not be an issue removing the rear shock on your 2024 Ford F-350 with the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BW73FR. This is in line with what I have heard, which are that the issues with the rear shock removal were for earlier model year F-350's, up to 2022. The # BW73FR is for the 2023+ model years, and we haven't had a single report of this issue with...

  • Recommended Air Bags for a 2025 Ford F-350 w/ a B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch
    So long as you do not have a dually the answer is yes. The Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Ultimate Air Helper Springs with Internal Jounce Bumpers item # AL29DQ are compatible with in bed hitches like the B&W item # BW73FR when installed on a 2025 Ford F-350. It'll bolt right to your truck. If your F-350 has dual rear wheels you'll need the Air Lift item # AL23DQ instead. This kit is also compatible with the B&W item # BW73FR. Does your 2025 Ford F-350 have single or dual rear wheels? You...

  • Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for 2024 Ford F-250
    Hey Allan, the best gooseneck hitch for your 2024 Ford F-250 would be the B and W Turnoverball part # BW73FR. The B and W hitches are known to be very high quality and easy to use, plus they are made in the USA. If you ever wanted to tow a fifth wheel hitch there's also a really great hitch option that can easily be used with this hitch.

  • Recommended Gooseneck Hitch for 2025 Ford F-350 Without Prep Package
    Hi Jim; for your 2025 Ford F-350 I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BW73FR.

It comes with a custom installation kit, lifetime warranty, and is made in the USA.

  • How to Mount a Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch in a 2025 Ford F-250 w/out the Puck System
    Hey Cody. Congrats on your new truck. Demco does not make an underbed system for your truck. The only underbed system available for a 2025 Ford F-250 without the OEM prep package are gooseneck hitches like the B&W item # BW73FR. There's no way to mount your Demco Autoslide item # DM8550022 to this set up. What you're going to need are a set of 5th wheel rails item # BWRVK2402 and new side plates item # DM6003.

    Hello Keith. Yes, the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # BW73FR will work with the Andersen Gooseneck Coupler like # AM3100. If you have a different Andersen Gooseneck Coupler it will work fine just as long as it requires a 2 5/16" ball. Also, I did confirm that the # BW73FR is the correct one for your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty.

    The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit # BWGNRK1116 you currently have is only designed to fit 2017 - 2022 Ford Super Duty trucks. Since your new department truck is a 2023 F-350 you need the kit # BW73FR instead. I checked the parts included in each kit to see if you would just need new brackets or just a new main body portion between the model years but it looks like both the mounting brackets and the main body are all different parts between...

    I recommend the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BW73FR over the Curt # C59VV for your 2023 Ford F-350 Super Duty. While both hitches are rated for 30,000lbs and have a lifetime warranty the B&W is made in the USA while the Curt is assembled from overseas parts. Both hitches can be installed with the bed in place. I also prefer the B&W having the square opening with the locking pin as this allow you to flip the ball over for storage and to add accessories over the Curt...

To make towing with a 5th wheel easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness w/ 7-Pole Connector - 10' Long item # C57010.

  • Is There an Installation Video For the B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch on a 2023 Ford F-350?

I recommend installing the Bargman 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring Harness # 54701-007 when you install the Turnoverball. This will allow you to install a 7-way in your truck bed to prevent stretching the electrical cord over the tailgate and down to the bumper 7-way.
