When you’re towing heavy equipment, livestock, or a big fifth wheel conversion, you need a hitch that doesn’t back down. The Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch is rated at 32,500 lbs gross towing weight and 8,125 lbs vertical load. The 2-5/16" pop-in ball locks in with a built-in ball-bearing system for a tight, dependable connection that keeps things stable mile after mile. It’s been tested to meet SAE J2638 standards for heavy-duty towing performance, so it’s ready to haul whatever your trailer demands.
This setup makes installation straightforward even if you’re doing it solo. The compact, easy-to-handle pieces are light enough to lift and hold in place without help. It bolts directly to the frame with no welding or frame drilling required—only the bed holes for the ball and safety chains. Fewer parts and steps mean less hassle getting it installed, and once it’s in, the 5/8" thick spring-loaded chain loops are built in and ready to work.
When you’re done towing, just lift and turn the integrated lever to unlock and remove the ball for full bed access. The underbed design keeps things clean—only the ball hole remains visible when the ball and chain loops are out. You get an unobstructed bed for loading hay, tools, or any gear that won’t fit around a permanent hitch. And when it’s time to tow again, the pop-in ball drops right back into place and locks in instantly.
The sturdy steel frame gives this hitch the strength to handle heavy loads while holding up to rough use over time. Its liquid A-coat finish adds a durable layer of rust protection that keeps it looking solid even after years of towing in wet or salty conditions. It’s backed by a limited lifetime warranty for lasting confidence on every haul.

It arrived as promised
Nice product. Great price and easy to install
Great website great service product delivered on time got it installed I'm ready to go
The kit fits great and all the parts are very good quality
E-Trailer did a great job getting this shipped out quickly and actually got it to us a day earlier than promised. Don't know about the product itself, as we haven't installed it yet.
Good product terrible shipping
The install was slightly more difficult on this curt hitch than the BW hitch, but this one was on sale at the time so I chose to give this one a try. Both styles give you a little workout but the hardware package is easier to work with on the BW hitch
Quality product that performs as expected. Installation went according to instructions. I was able to complete the installation without assistance. Quarterly hardware checks have revealed no fasteners to need re-tightening. The only issue has been, even with keeping the ball and coupler cleaned and lubricated, the chrome plating had started peeling from the top of the ball.
I would have no problem recommending this item to others.
The kit worked well and I did the job without jacking up the truck after finding out I could not lift it on our hoist. Took me about 4 hours and difficult with out lifting the truck. On a hoist I can see this going much smoother. My truck is the 6.6 gas model and I could not find a way to get it in without dropping the exhaust. The video was very helpful. The centering jig worked well but not perfect (off about 1/16th). Overall I would definitely recommend this hitch. It is built like a tank!
I bought this Curt Gooseneck Hitch For my new 2020 Chevy HD Silverado Standard Bed Duramax. I did the install myself, in my garage and without the use of a lift. I spent about 8 hours to get it done. The parts are heavy, so take that into account if you’re wanting to do it yourself. Watching a Curt install video during the process was key to installing it successfully. Only thing I would suggest during the install, and for the driver’s side only, is to loosen the rearward gas tank strap, which allows a little more room for fishing the one inside frame retaining plate and bolt. Very happy with the quality of this hitch and of the price from etrailer.
Install went well by myself. Everything is heavy so it was a bit cumbersome to get in place, especially without a lift. Other than that all works well and the centering guild for drilling the hole was a huge plus.
Very poor design, it does not connect positively to the chassis definitely will not recommend it.
Fast shipping. Fit and function as described. Thanks etrailer!

It works well towing an 18000lb trailer. I wish they included a feature to flip the hitch boll when its not in use, as no matter where I position it in my truck, I keep hearing it roll back and forth while driving, which is quite annoying.
