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.


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.

  • Best Option Gooseneck Hitch to 5th Wheel Trailer Connection For 2001 Ram 2500 and 2003 Actic Fox
    For your 2001 Ram 2500, the fact that you have the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch w/ Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs # BWGNRK1394 is a great start. This is a great hitch and the Extended Latch Pin Handle for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitch - 17" # BWGNXA1800 will keep you from getting under the truck to release the hitch ball. For your 5th wheel trailer you do have the option of the Reese Goose Box 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Air Ride Coupler Adapter - Lippert...

  • Is Removal Of The Bed Necessary To Install B&W Turnover Ball Gooseneck on 02 Ram 2500 or 09 Ram 3500
    Installation of both the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1394 for your 2002 Ram 2500 and # BWGNRK1308 for your 2009 Ram 3500 Mega Cab short bed will not require the bed to be lifted or disconnected in any way. The instructions for both do mention a lifting device is recommended but this is only for holding the center hitch section under the bed while you bolt it up to the cross rails. I recommend getting a Hopkins Endurance 5th Wheel/Gooseneck 90-Degree Wiring...

  • Suspension Enhancement That Fits 2001 Dodge Ram 3500 that Has B and W Gooseneck Hitch
    I have a great suspension enhancement solution for your 2001 Dodge Ram 3500 that has a B and W Turnoverball gooseneck hitch # BWGNRK1394 installed but none of the air bag kits fit since the brackets interfere with the gooseneck hitch. So instead your best option is the Timbren kit part # TUR350 which fits your truck, gives you the same support as the air bag kits, and requires less maintenance since you install it once and it never needs to be monitored or adjusted. It's a much simpler...

  • Rear Suspension Enhancement For a 2002 Dodge Ram 3500 4WD Dually With B&W Turnover Ball Gooseneck
    For your 2002 Dodge Ram 3500 Dually 4wd I recommend using the Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System # TDR3500 since there are no air bag systems compatible with your B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1394. The Timbren hollow rubber springs have a capacity rating of 6,000lbs to help reduce sag and stabilize your Ram under load. This will not increase your towing or payload capacity.

  • Estimated Professional Installation Time for B&W Gooseneck Trailer Hitch on 1998 Dodge Ram 2500
    First, B and W gooseneck hitch # BWGNRC800 is just the hitch. You will also need an installation kit that fits your 1998 Dodge Ram 2500. For the installation kit and the hitch together use # BWGNRK1394. When we install gooseneck trailer hitches here we take the whole day because we also film the installation. A professional with experience who was not being filmed would probably take 3 to 6 hours. I have included a link to the instructions for you. What you can do is run it by an installer...

  • Any Difference Between B&W BWGNRK1394 and BWGNRK1394-5W Installation Kits
    There is no difference between the B&W Underbed Trailer Hitch, # BWGNRK1394 and # BWGNRK1394-5W. They are listed separately because we want to identify them under both gooseneck and fifth wheel searches; but both are able to be used as a gooseneck hitch or with the Companion fifth wheel hitches. Please note the video links attached below.

    The B&W Flatbed Adapter # BWRVK3050 will fit into any B&W Turnoverball gooseneck like the # BWGNRK1394.

    If you compare the provided side by side photo of the B&W # BWGNRK1394 Turnover Ball gooseneck hitch, which is a fit for the 1996 Dodge Ram to the photo you kindly provided, I'd call that a match. The square ball, the positioning of the safety chain loops and even the finger hook bar in the recess of the gooseneck ball all match. The round housing surrounding the ball isn't attached to the bed, but the safety chain loops are bolted to the hitch center assembly with the bed sandwiched in...

  • Identifying a Gooseneck Hitch and Upgrading to a Turnover Ball on a 2002 Dodge Ram 3500
    Most of the manufacturers put their logo on the bracket you can see inside the wheel well. I have attached a picture of how B&W labels theirs. It being a 2002 Ram I can imagine any sticker or decal long ago wearing off. I suggest getting underneath there with a rag and trying to clean off the steel and see if there are any markings stamped into the side.

The hitch ball can be engaged or disengaged from inside your 8 foot bed. The custom fit wiring you will need is part # C56071. It is a RV-style connector that you mount in your 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 to hookup of your 5th-wheel or gooseneck trailer If you don't have some already, I recommend using Loctite Threadlocker # LT37420...

  • Solution for Installing B and W Companion Hitch in Flat Bed Truck with Only Slightly Raised Bed
    Since you have a flat bed that sits a little higher than the gooseneck hitch you'd need is the part # BWGNRK1500 which you'll have to have fabricated to install in bed of your truck. This will allow the hitch to be at the correct height so that you could use a standard Companion B and W Hitch part # BWRVK3500 like you are wanting. If you installed the # BWGNRK1394 it would sit too far below the top of the flat bed for the hitch to fit.

  • Where is Gooseneck Ball Hole Drilled to Install B and W Turnoverball in Bed of 1998 Dodge Ram 1500
    The correct B and W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch for your 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 is the part # BWGNRK1394 and the measurements to use vary depending on your bed length. You'll want the hole centered from left to right but from the rear edge of the truck bed the hold would be 48-3/8 inches if you have a long bed or 44-3/8 inches if you have a short bed. I attached a picture that I took from the install instructions which shows this as well.
