Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with Custom Installation Kit - 30,000 lbs

Did not fit 2023 F350. Guaranteed to fit, doesn't always fit. etrailer said sorry, send it back. I thought more would have been done to make things right. A lot of time and effort wasted. BTW the Curt hitch is way better than this one3174150

This is my first gooseneck hitch and so far no issues. The install took both myself and my friend about 5 hours on my 2018 F250. You definitely need a second set of hands and it's preferred if one of you did weightlifting cause the hitch plate is HEAVY!! Just make sure when reading the instructions you really look where they notated where the front of the vehicle is cause it can get a little confusing.
One tip that helped us out a lot and saved our arms is before putting in the hitch plate drill the hole for the ball opening, use a jack in the bed with a ratchet strap or some kind of strong strap, put the strap through the hole of theb bed and through the hole of the hitch plate then put a metal bar or something strong that will support the hitch plate. Then take the strap and put it on the jack and jack it up. This will pull the hitch plate up to the bottom of the truck bed and allow you to bolt it in and save your arms from becoming putty.1736111

Good hitch. Love the drop and lock ball way more than my old hide-a-goose turnover ball. Installed it myself and only had to unbolt the brake like bracket. Left spare tire and exhaust in place. Put the ball in the center piece and slid it up and had my neighbor hold it by the ball while I put the conicals and nuts on. 519709

Pretty amazing service really to ship something this heavy for free and have it show up 36 hours after ordering it1755601

1)Comes with zero instructions. When you scan the little code on the packing list it comes up 404 error page not found. You then have to print them out on your home computer.

2)Holes did not line up correctly. You are constantly taking out bolts and re inserting them trying to get stuff started.

3)Unless you have a 5/8 tap to clean out the threaded holes good luck! There is so much powder coating in them bolt's won't start.

4)Takes way longer than the estimated time.

5)I have put in several goose neck hitches this is probably one of the heaviest. It was by far the worst to install.1262578

I will have our customer service team reach out to you. The instructions are typically with the hardware for the the hitch.

Seems to be an excellent product. Down graded a star because there were no instructions include with the product and the QR code brought up a “page not found” looking forward to pulling with it.1608454

A great hitch. Follow the instruction timeline and you'll B OK May not be for the weekender as we have 13K Challenger lift. Does have a very close bracket to the 7500 Airlift Bag system but it clears. best deal for this year truck1069851

Excellent product installation was easier than I anticipated. Do need a second set of hands to get the plate in place. Only issue I had was the inside plate covered the brake line bracket holes by an 1/8 of an inch.864067

Excellent hitch and not a bad install. Wish there were instal directions with it. Had to look up on line. Heavy duty hitch need 2 people to instal.1361951

I sprayed bed line on mine once I had it installed to prevent future rust

Great product and it gets used regularly. The quick release is very convenient. My only complaint is that there are no options for an extended gooseneck ball. Similar to the Draw Tite 5" extension. This hitch will not allow you to install a conventional pin to use the draw tite extension as there is a thick piece of metal in the way. The quick release on the ball is the only option. 827736

I couldn't have picked a better hitch for the price! I took it to a local business (Carolina welders, Laurinburg NC) and it took him only an hour to install and it installed perfectly! In two days I had my horse trailer hooked to it and I haven't had an issue since! And when I'm not hauling a trailer I easily flip the ball and I slide my dogbox in! I was skeptic about ordering but I do not regret my decision ANY!!! Love this hitch!651717

Great product, I watched etrailers videos on installation of the hitch before it arrived and began disassembley of the truck, the video is very helpful in understanding the instructions with the hitch, the hitch arrived early in the day on the arrival date etrailer gave me, so I was able to finish installation that day. Thanks etrailer, Jason463727

Yes I have had the hitch installed in my truck about a year now and it has done me well. I was pulling a 9 bail hay trailer all last week delivering big round bails and have pulled our equipment trailer and OK Coral also with no problems. Just remember to keep the ball receiver lightly greased so you can turn over your ball eawsly. I love my hitch. 300608

Easy install once you get past the kinda confusing drawings. The safety hooks are pretty short, I just have the nuts flush with threads but can't get the hooks under them. I will have to look for longer ones. Took 3 hrs to install with having to remove hard tonneau cover and bed liner and reinstalling and clean up. Thought it would be worse!! The isolation tape they send with the hitch is kind of cheesy, hopefully it works. Was a great price!435890
