• 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...

• What is the Difference Between the Curt Gooseneck Pop-In Balls C60629 and C60627?
  Hey Gary, welcome back! The Curt Pop-In Ball item # C60629 is 8-1/8" tall and has a 30,000 lbs capacity. The Curt Pop-In Ball item # C60627 is 7-7/8" tall and has a 38,000 lbs towing capacity. Both of the Curt Pop-In Balls item # C60629 and item # C60627 will fit your F-350's factory gooseneck receiver. Does your Brinkley Z3515 have a gooseneck pin box on it or is this for another trailer?

• 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...

• What Size Ball and Torque Setting Can Be Used With the Curt CrossWing
  Tim, there is not a gooseneck ball height size recommended to use the Curt CrossWing Lightweight 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch # C92DR, so a 2 5/16" ball # BWGNXA2061 will work fine. Curt specifies that the only thing that needs to happen is that the 20mm carriage bolt must completely protrude through the 20mm flange nut and the 20mm jam nut, and the 14mm hex head cap screws must be allowed to make contact with the gooseneck coupler. If either of these things don't happen, it means that the...

• How Tall is the Weigh Safe Safe Load Ball and Anchor Kit WS74ZR?
  Hey Denise. The top of the gooseneck ball on the Weigh Safe Safe Load Ball and Anchor Kit item # WS74ZR is going to sit 8-3/4" from the lower ridges in your F-350's bed or 8-1/4" from the top of the taller ridges.

• 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...

• How To Remove Gooseneck Ball Stuck In OEM Gooseneck Hitch In 2018 Ram 3500
  I would be happy to help. On the bottom of the hitch ball will be a plastic or aluminum plug. Remove the plug and you will see a bar inside that is used to hold the bearings in place. You will need to rotate the bar 90 degrees to release the bearings, but be careful as the internals of the hitch ball will likely fall out once the bar is turned. Once the hitch ball is out take a look at all of the components for rust or corrosion that caused it to get stuck. Using a penetrating lubricant...
