Features to know about

Built for Serious Towing: 38,000 lbs GTW and 9,500 lbs Vertical Load

This setup is made for the kind of heavy hauling that demands confidence. Rated for 38,000 lbs gross towing weight and 9,500 lbs vertical load, it’s built from forged and machined steel with a chrome-plated finish for serious strength and corrosion resistance. Whether you’re hauling equipment, livestock, or a loaded fifth wheel, the ball-bearing locking system keeps the connection tight and secure under heavy strain.

Quick Hookup and Removal: Pop-In 2-5/16" Ball with Lever Lock

The pop-in ball design makes setup simple — drop it in, turn the quarter-turn latch, and you’re locked in. When you’re done towing, lift the integrated lever to unlock and pull the ball out just as easily. The retention balls hold it firmly in place while towing, and the built-in ball-bearing system ensures a positive lock every time. No tools or extra parts needed for mounting or removal.

Clean Bed When You’re Done: Below-the-Bed System with Protective Cover

Once the ball’s out, the included rubber cover protects the gooseneck hole from dirt and debris so your bed stays clean. The safety chain hookups drop into the Power Pucks when needed and lift right out when not. Everything — ball, loops, and cover — fits neatly into the heavy-duty storage case so it’s ready for the next haul.

Built to Last in Demanding Conditions: Tested for Strength and Safety

Each component is tested to meet U.S. VESC V-19 safety standards. The cast steel anchors use a durable carbide black powder coat finish for long-term wear resistance, while wide loop openings accept large gooseneck safety chain hooks without binding. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty (one-year finish, one-year parts), this kit is designed to handle years of hard towing without compromise.

Curt ball and accessories is exactly what I wanted, carrying case works well also. Customer service was outstanding.

See what our Experts say about this CURT Gooseneck Hitch

  • Is There a Downside to Using Offset Gooseneck Ball Compared to Non-Offset
    Hey Mark, the only real downside to an offset ball like the Gen-Y part # GY43XR is going to be that it costs more typically and it would take up more room when stored compared to a non-offset ball like the # C38CR. The handling and weight carrying would not be negatively affected. If anything it will handle a little better as the pivot point being a little further back seems to make it track a little better around corners. I'd recommend the offset ball for anyone regardless of bed length...

  • Recommended Andersen Ultimate 5th Wheel Hitch for a Silverado 3500HD
    Hey Bob. The Andersen Aluminum Ultimate 5th Wheel Connection 2 Gooseneck version item # 3220 will definitely work with your Silverado 3500HD. It has a 24,000 lbs capacity along with a 4" offset. Even if you have the shorter bed you should have plenty of room to make turns with that shallow nose on your toy hauler. Do you have the factory puck system and what year is your Silverado? If you do have the puck system you'll need the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit item # C38CR to connect...

  • Recommended Gooseneck Ball for the Ram Factory Puck System
    Hey Marvin, welcome back. Since your 2016 Ram 3500 has the factory puck system, I recommend the Curt Pop-In Ball item # C60627. This 2-5/16" 38,000 lbs capacity gooseneck ball is going to drop right down into the center hole of your puck system. It uses a built-in ball-bearing system that holds the ball in place. The overall height of the Curt Pop-In Ball is 7-7/8" and the installed height is 5-1/8". This hitch ball is also available with the safety chain loops and a storage case. It is...

  • Is Curt Crosswing Compatible With Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit
    Hi Reynold; the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit # C38CR is compatible with your Curt CrossWing # C32DR. The CrossWing will not damage the mechanism on the gooseneck ball.

  • Recommended Gooseneck Hitch Ball Kit for a 2023 Nissan Titan XD
    Hey Cordealaous. There are no B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck systems for the 2023 Nissan Titan XD. The B&W item # BWGNRM1208 you referenced will not fit because the 2023 Titan's come from the factory with a gooseneck system already installed. You can add a gooseneck ball to it with the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit for Chevy, Ford, GMC, and Nissan Underbed Gooseneck Hitch item # C38CR. Does your Titan have 3 circles in a triangle pattern built into the bed?

  • Recommended Gooseneck Hitch Ball for a 2025 GMC Sierra 2500 Factory Puck System
    It can not Jared. For the puck system in your 2025 GMC Sierra 2500, you'll need the Curt Pop-In Ball item # C60627. The diameters of the Ram and GM pucks and gooseneck ball are slightly different. If you use the Curt C60601 for Ram trucks on your Sierra, the locking mechanism won't engaged properly and it'll be loose. We also have the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit item # C38CR. This kit includes the hitch ball and the safety chain loops. What kind of trailer are you pulling? You...

  • Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch for 2008 Ford F-350 With Curt Gooseneck Hitch
    There are a couple of options which you can choose from which will allow you to pull a 5th wheel trailer with your 2008 Ford F-350, which I'll go over for you. The best option by far is the Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045 because it gives you the security of a fifth wheel hitch with a strong jaw system while simply fitting on the gooseneck ball of the Curt EZr. It is both simple to use and strong, with a 21,000 lb towing capacity. I strongly recommend...

    Hey Gary. The shank diameter is 2-1/4" on the Curt Pop-In Ball for Ford Gooseneck Hitch item # C60627. This gooseneck ball does fit the Ford factory puck system and gooseneck hitch so it's the correct one for your 2022 F-350. The overall height of the Curt Pop-In Ball is 7-7/8" and the installed height is 5-1/8". This hitch ball is also available with the safety chain loops and a storage case.

  • Will I Have Turning Clearance Issues Using The Gen-Y Gooseneck Pin Box On Short Bed Silverado 2500?
    The best way to prevent any clearance issues with your 2022 KZ Durango Gold G356RLQ and your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 with 6-1/2' bed and factory puck system is by using the Demco Autoslide 5th Wheel Hitch # DM79GV. This hitch slides back and gives you up to 14" of additional clearance when performing a jackknife turn. The Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box # GY38FR measures 16.9" from front mounting holes to center of hitch ball. A regular 1621 pin box this...

  • Why is the Curt # C38CR Rated Stronger than the Curt # C60692, What are the Main Differences?
    Hello Jason, Great question! So physically they are the same as for as size, but the CURT # C38CR is stronger than the # C60692 because it’s made from tougher steel, has extra reinforcement, and a sturdier locking system. These upgrades let it handle 38,000 lbs instead of 30,000 lbs. It’s built for heavier loads and designed to work better with stronger truck puck systems. Which is why there is quite the price difference as well. Both would be a great fit for your 2024 GMC Sierra with...

  • What is Needed to Use Curt CrossWing 5th Wheel Hitch on 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500
    The Curt CrossWing Lightweight 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # C92DR is a great option for your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. If you have the factory prep package then all you need is a gooseneck hitch ball like the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit part # C38CR or if you don't all you need is a gooseneck hitch like the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # C60642. These both use a 2-5/16" hitch ball which is what the hitch requires. These are no in-bed rails with...

  • What is the Difference Between Gooseneck B&W Ball and the Curt Ball for My 2022 GMC Sierra 3500?
    There are a few differences between the B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 and the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Kit # C38CR for your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 (8-foot bed with OEM prep). Apart from the 38k pound capacity of the Curt and the 30k pound weight capacity of the B&W, the B&W ball has an integrated handle that gives you a better grip when installing/removing the ball. Also, the Curt kit comes with hooks that attach to the ends of the safety chains while the B&W kit require you...

  • Comparing B&W and Curt Gooseneck Hitch Kits For In Bed Hitch Prep/Puck On 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500
    The B&W Ball and Safety Chain Kit # BWGNXA2061 is going to be the kit I recommend. This kit includes a 2-5/16" hitch ball that is rated for 30,000lbs. The reason I prefer this kit is that it has the folding handle that is used to lock the ball in the factory in bed prep/puck system on your 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. This will help keep your hands clean when it is time to remove the ball. The Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit # C38CR is rated for 38,000lbs of trailer capacity. The...

  • Shortest Gooseneck Hitch Ball for OEM Puck Systems
    The shortest hitch ball that will fit the GM factory puck system is the Curt item # C60627. The overall height of the Curt Pop-In Ball is 7-7/8" and the installed height is 5-1/8". This hitch ball is also available with the safety chain loops and a storage case. It is the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit item # C38CR. I have attached a diagram of this hitch ball below.

    The B and W Gooseneck Ball part # BWGNXA2061 does fit the OEM prep package of your 2016 Ford F-250 but it is the tallest ball that fits your truck. The lowest one is the part # C38CR we have heard that this does work the Andersen Ultimate.

  • Parts Needed to Install Curt CrossWing on 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 With Prep Package
    What you said is correct. Since you have the factory prep package, the only other thing you will need to use the CrossWing # C32DR is the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit # C38CR (60639). Safety chains are not required for the 5th wheel hitch so technically the safety chain hookups aren't necessary. If you think you might tow a gooseneck trailer and want to have them just in case go ahead and get the kit. If not, you can get the Curt Pop-In Ball # C60627 separately to save a little...

    I'd be glad to help with that. The Curt # C60692 and # C38CR are very similar, with the difference between the two being the capacity of the gooseneck ball. The # C38CR has a ball rated at up to 38K, while the # C60692 is rated for up to 30K. Both gooseneck balls are installed and removed using the latch located atop the ball. The B&W # BWGNXA2061 is rated for 30K and uses a different latch setup. The latch is engaged using a handle that sits lower down on the ball. Both the Curt and...

  • Recommended Ford Puck System Gooseneck Hitch Ball for an Older Andersen 5th Wheel Hitch
    Hey Mike, welcome back! I didn't receive a picture but so long as your 2025 Ford F-350 has the factory puck system, I recommend the Curt Pop-In Ball item # C60627. This gooseneck ball is going to drop right down into your center puck and provide an attachment point for all three generations of the Andersen Ultimate 5th wheel hitch.

    Hi Phil, Great questions, sounds like a really nice setup you’re putting together. Good news here: the handle on the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNXA2061 will not interfere with using the Curt CrossWing Lightweight 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C92DR. Those two are fully compatible, so you won’t run into any fitment or clearance issues there. I personally like the B&W # BWGNXA2061 over the Curt # C38CR because of the handle it has.

  • Highest Rated Gooseneck Ball for Ford OEM Tow/Prep Package on 2018 Ford F-350
    The Curt # C38CR Gooseneck Ball for the Ford OEM tow/prep package has a 38K capacity, which would be limited by the actual towing capacity of the truck itself. The truck's towing capacity can vary according to the bed length, whether the vehicle is a 2 or 4WD, or by the cab style and the gear ratio of the rear differential. This being said, since the GVWR of the trailer you'll be dealing with is 23,900, you could also use the 30K capacity B&W # BWGNXA2061 which would be my personal preference....

  • Replacement Hook to Attach Safety Chains to Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit
    To attach your safety chains to the # C38CR on your 2024 Sierra 2500 you can replace the hooks with the Curt Clevis Hook with Spring Loaded Safety Latch # C81970. These are large enough to attach to the Curt system.

    The Curt # C38CR 38K capacity gooseneck ball removes from the hitch itself by flipping up the center latch, then rotating it. This takes the spring tension off the ball bearings that hold the ball in place, allowing the ball to be easily lifted out off the hitch, as shown in the linked video. The B&W # BWGNXA2061 system uses the handle, as you described and has a 30K capacity. The handle is lifted and the ball rotated at which time you can lift the ball out of the hitch, I've also linked...
