Is this right For you? Product Expert Kathleen M says:
Yes, if you:
Prefer securing the hitch ball with a built-in lever so you never have to worry about reaching into the wheel well to make sure it's properly latched
Haul a very heavy trailer or just want the most overbuilt hitch to make sure you can handle any trailer
Have a black bed liner and chrome trim which will look great with this kit
No, if you:
Worry that you'll lose track of the hitch ball and would rather have one that stores in the hitch
Hate when the hitch ball starts to wear out - this chrome plating tends to wear off quickly
Have a hard time trusting the hitch ball without a solid pin holding it in place

Designed specifically for your vehicle, this underbed gooseneck hitch provides superior towing capability along with a variety of unique features. When you go to tow, it provides a dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer. When you're done towing, remove the ball to get full bed access and a clean appearance.
This hitch has also been thoroughly tested to meet SAE J2638 standards. These criteria - set forth by the Society of Automotive Engineers - are specifically designed to ensure the highest level of performance for heavy-duty towing.
Pop-In Ball
The included pop-in ball uses an integrated, easy-to-access lever to activate the ball-bearing locking system, securing the ball in the hitch. Quickly remove the ball using the same lever and get absolute, uninhibited use of your truck bed. Because this hitch installs underneath your truck bed, all that you will be left with upon removal of the ball and safety chain loops is the ball hole.
Simple, Custom Installation
Installation of this hitch is a breeze. With fewer steps and fewer components than competing hitches, installation is simpler to understand and complete. The compact size of the parts makes them easy to lift and hold in place - no help needed.

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.

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.

Chevrolet Silverado
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.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
The install wasn’t that bad. The hard part is getting everything torqued to spec while having no room to work. Very well built good instructions. Have only used once and so far so good!

I ended up with a newer truck than the 2017 I originally installed this on. The ball fits perfectly into the 2020 Ram 3500 prep package. Still holding strong

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
It bolted right up to my 16 ram 2500 it took a little longer cause I don’t have a lift . Didn’t remove the exhaust all I did was push to the side after removing last rubber bushing . There’s no holes in truck frame for the chain holders but with the right bits it went right through my parts got delivered and before I got an email to leave this review I already completed the job

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
Loved how eazy product installed instructions on hitch was great. Found on etrailer.com a video of how to install hitch. U will have to remove heat shild and exuast pipe to make much easier to in stall. The trailer ball is sweet u just flip up latch and turn then it's free to remove. Ordered hitch on Saturday free shipping and they called me to make sure it was shipping to right location. Then they emailed me when it shiped. It arrived on Tuesday on the same week. The price was great to. Will use hitch to pull 25 ft hay trailer and 24 foot stock trailer.

Excellent product, install was fairly easy helps to have an extra set of hands.
I used black spray paint to help hide hardware, then installed wheel well incerts which made for a clean looking truck.
Would buy again for sure.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
I purchased this for my 2017 Ford SuperDuty 6.7 Powerstroke to tow my gooseneck crawler hauler setup. It took about 2 1/2 hours to install from start to finish. Installation was simple and all the parts were quality. The bolts were heavy duty Grade 8 bolts and it went together exactly as the directions indicated. I love how easy the ball is removed and can be stored under the back seat when not in use. I’d highly recommend it.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
Very nice hitch, took me about 3 hrs to install on a 2014 RAM 2500 6.5 bed with help from the wife. The hitch is very thick steel, probably close to 1/2". The ball works great, very easy to secure and remove. Very happy with the hitch and glad I chose it over the turnover ball which seems to be slightly harder to install.
Some tips... remove spare tire, remove heat shield, drill the 3 1/4" hole, make sure to use a good hole saw made for metal, positition the nuts using the brackets, have someone get the bolts started while you hold the hitch. Tighten the bolts, you will probably have to remove the exhaust hangers to move the exhaust enough to tighten the passenger side bolts, torque to spec, drill the safety hook holes, install safety hooks and put everything back together...thats pretty much it.
I took my truck and had the bed Linex'd after I installed the hitch. They touched up around the holes. Looks awesome!

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
Installation was pretty easy. It took about 2 hrs. Only issue was the exhaust pipe that rubbed the safety hooks when they are in the down position. Nothing that a bandsaw couldn't fix. Installed on a 2019 Ram 2500. Works great.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
Easy to install, I would give 5 Stars but I had to trim one of the safety chain U-bolts as it contacted the exhaust.
I did not have to drop the spair tire or the heat shield.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
I like everything except. One of the u bolt’s for the safety touches the top of the crossover pipe under the bed. I keep a towel under it so it doesn’t rub a hole in my pipe. I followed the directions and used what came with it to lay it out. So I don’t know how that happened.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
The chain hook U bolt hits the exhaust so it rattles. The U bolts also stick up too much in the bed. They should be moved in between the humps in the bed and not on top of the humps.

Review from a similar Curt Underbed GN Hitch in Gooseneck Hitch
The hitch is very solid and fit like a glove. Very well designed. Instructions were clear and accurate. Installed this on my 2016 Mega cab 3500 in a couple of hours by myself. Hitched up the camper and took a short trip, no problems at all.

For your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 the Curt Gooseneck hitch part # C60642 is a confirmed fit and a great option. It has a really high towing capacity of 32.5k trailer weight and the ball installs and removes very easily as well.

That is a great question!
The Curt Gooseneck Hitch # C60642 you were looking at for your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 is designed so that the gooseneck ball is pretty much directly over the rear axle. This best allows the hitch weight of the trailer to be evenly distributed across the rear suspension giving you the best support.
While installing the gooseneck hitch in your truck I recommend installing a 7-way connector in the bed using # C56070. This connector plugs in in-line of your factory... view full answer...
We do have the exact Curt gooseneck trailer hitch that fits your 2022 Chevy Silverado 2500 and is the underbed, OEM style. The correct fit for your '22 Silverado 2500 (for both the standard and long bed) is the following:
- Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642
This gooseneck will give you the same, from-the-factory look as the OEM gooseneck and is rated for up to 32,500 lbs of towing capacity, so it will more than meet the towing demands of your '22 Silverado... view full answer...
Yes, the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch, # C60642 for the 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 is compatible with air bags. This provides the same, from-the-factory performance as the OEM modle and is rated for up to 32,500 lbs of towing capacity. It also comes with spring-loaded safety chain hooks and a simple-to-use pop-in ball which allows for a clean, open bed when you aren't towing.
Additionally, if you also need a gooseneck wiring harness for your 2022 Silverado... view full answer...
There is one option for you to add a 5th wheel hitch to your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 that already has the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642 installed. The best option for this is a hitch from Demco that will actually attach directly to the gooseneck ball:
- Demco Recon Gooseneck-to-5th Wheel Trailer Hitch Adapter # DM8550045
The Recon has "adapter" in the title, and while that is technically true, it is truly just a 5th wheel hitch that mounts to your gooseneck... view full answer...
If your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 doesn't have already have a gooseneck ball hitch in the bed you'll need the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch - 32,500lbs Item # C60642.
Since you currently have a Lippert 1621HD pin box the Gen-Y Hitch Shock Absorbing 5th Wheel to Gooseneck Pin Box - Lippert 1621/1621 HD - Auto Latch - 25K Item # GY66FR will be a perfect match for your Forest River Hemisphere 295BH. view full answer...
You can never go wrong with the B&W Turnover Ball gooseneck hitch, part # BWGNRK1020. The Turnover Ball will be fully compatible with the Reese Goosebox pin box you're using on your 5th wheel.
If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in your truck bed, you can do so using part # 20110. view full answer...
When the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642 is installed it will center the gooseneck ball right over the rear axle of the truck.
The Pullrite 3900 is designed to attach directly to a gooseneck hitch ball like this so it would work well. The 2900 requires fifth wheel rails so it would. view full answer...
Yes, the Air Lift suspension enhancement kit part # AL89341 is compatible with in-bed hitches like the Curt gooseneck you installed in the bed of your 2020 Chevy Silverado # C60642 so it would work really well and give you additional suspension support when towing a gooseneck trailer.
For a compressor kit the heavy duty part # AL25854 will make inflating the bags and maintaining them very easy. The compressor will inflate faster than standard compressors and the gauge inside the vehicle... view full answer...
We have a USA made gooseneck hitch for your 2020 GMC Sierra 3500 that was designed to accept a fifth wheel hitch but the Curt you mentioned cannot pull that off. Instead you'd want the gooseneck hitch part # BWGNRK1020 which fits your truck so that you can install what many regard as the best fifth wheel hitch you can get, the Companion part # BWRVK3500 which has a reputation as being the highest quality and the quietest as well. view full answer...
This is a really good question and I apologize for the situation but due to how both the Curt hitch part # C60642 and how the Air Lift # AL89341 install on the truck frame they really aren't compatible with each other.
You'd need the similar Firestone kit part # F2613 which attaches to the frame in a different way which prevents the interference. view full answer...
Since we know there were no changes to the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500 we know that the B and W Turnoverball gooseneck part # BWGNRK1020 does fit your truck and would allow you to use your Companion hitch part # BWRVK3400. view full answer...
The Reese GooseBox adapters are the best fifth wheel trailer to gooseneck coupler adapters out there which also have air ride built into them. For that we have the part # RP94716 which fits the Lippert 0719, 1621 and 1621HD as well as the Fabex PB-600 Series and the part # RP94716-61301 which fits the Lippert 0115, 1116 and 1716 pin boxes.
You'd have to check the pin box plate on your trailer currently to determine which pin box you have now to pick out the Goosebox. view full answer...
If the 2022 GMC Sierra 2500HD didn't have the OEM rail kit with the center hole built in for a gooseneck hitch you could use the Curt gooseneck part # C60642 which fits your truck that will give the truck a smooth bed when you remove the hitch ball from it.
If the truck has the OEM rail kit instead you'd want the B and W Gooseneck part # BWGNXA2061 which fits the rail kit directly and provides what I think is the best ball option since it comes with a handle that allows you to avoid touching... view full answer...
I'll start out by saying that this is going to be fairly normal with a trailer that size and there's really not a way to completely eliminate chucking; additionally there aren't adjustments on the hitch or trailer that can be made to help curb this. However, there are components that are better suited to help reduce the effects than others and if you wanted to go about trying to reduce this as much as possible there are 2 routes you could go.
Without knowing the exact hitch you're using,... view full answer...
I recommend looking at the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Helper Springs # F2613 as they will fit with the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642 that you have installed on your 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.
All the Air Lift kits including the LoadLifter 5000 # AL57341 use brackets that interfere with Curt mounting brackets. You would need to have the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1020 if you are wanting to use the Air Lift kit. view full answer...
With the exception of the Reese Goosebox, keep in mind that using an adapter to tow a fifth wheel with a gooseneck hitch might possibly void the frame warranty of your fifth wheel. This is why the Goosebox OEM pin box replacement is a great alternative that we recommend pretty frequently, because of the excellent ride provided by the air ride feature. The Goosebox is compatible with a few of the most popular pin box models. If your OEM pin box is a Lippert 1621, 1621HD, or 0719, use # RP94720.... view full answer...
We've got exactly what you're looking for.
For a gooseneck hitch that can also serve as the mount for a 5th wheel hitch, I'd recommend the B&W Turnover Ball, part # BWGNRK1020-5W which would install as shown in the linked video. When used as a gooseneck hitch, the capacity is 30K.
The Turnover Ball hitch would serve as the mounting point for the # BWRVK3500-5W B&W Companion 5th wheel hitch. The hitch has a 20K capacity.
If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck... view full answer...
The Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642 on your 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD will not allow for a offset ball. This is due to it not having a locking pin that travels through the shank of the ball like the Curt EZr Double Lock # C65HR or B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1020.
Of these systems I recommend the B&W Turnoverball # BWGNRK1020 as the best option. You are able to store the ball in the same hole by simply turning it over to get a flat bed. And you can drop... view full answer...
