Ball Up

The Fold-Down gooseneck trailer hitch works to meet your heavy-duty towing needs while still allowing you to get full use out of your truck bed. The custom-fit rails install to preexisting mounting points beneath your vehicle. The hitch plate mounts in your truck bed, but sits flush to the surface to ensure a low-profile look.


Fold Away

Instead of having to remove the ball and find a place to store it, like so many other hitches would have you do, this hitch allows you to simply fold the ball down for storage inside of the hitch. Just use the oversize pull ring to pull up the door near the hitch ball, and then pivot the ball down into the open compartment. The door closes on top of the ball to keep it concealed and to ensure a smooth surface for your truck bed. When you're ready to tow, just open the hatch, pivot the ball into the standing position, and close the door to secure the ball in place.

etrailer does not have free returns, one year later this is still sitting in the box. I will never buy from etrailer again.

It will all depend on the reason for the return.

2020 Ford F-150

Solid built! Ball moves much better than I expected. Install takes some focus and the right tools but overall the manufactures guides and support provided from etrailer covered everything.

This unit sits back over the axle much better than the hidden hitch style does. Yes, you can see it but if you have any concern about your trailer getting into your cab this unit gives you some critical inches. Wouldn't hesitate to purchase another in the future.



by:

easy purchase with fast shipping and good install instructions. would recommend to anyone.



by:

Bought this drawtite gooseneck hitch for my 2007 Dodge 2500 to pull and 8000lb horse trailer. Love it! It's simple design, easy to install, and "no profile" when folded down not in use. Caution if this is your first install - be VERY careful taking measurements to cut the hole in bed, you only get one chance to get it right. Totally recommend. Great price.



by:

Both Cathy and George were awesome to deal with and the product is just what I need. Can't wait to use etrailer.com again. Hitch and brackets are very well made and heavy construction.



by:

No issues with it's intended use. Works great. Installation a little tricky and directions somewhat lacking in the detail department. Took considerably longer than I anticipated. Once in, works great.



by:

Product shipped fast and was even delivered a day early. Quality is excellent. Ordering was easy. I ordered both the gooseneck hitch and rail kit. Price on this site was $160 less than everywhere else. The description said that a template came included for where to cut out the bed, which it did, but there was no indicator on exactly where to set the teplate from the front or rear of bed. Which makes it complicated. but all in all I am pleased with my product and service.



by:

Very pleased with the transaction. Item came within days. Great customer service follow up. Been pricing gooseneck hitches and installation for months. Found etrailer to be the best price and product selection for my 95 Chevy 2500. Installed hitch in 3 hours. Very straightforward install...



by:

I ordered a gooseneck hitch late Thursday evening and it arrived the next Monday, as estimated by the salesman. I'm very well pleased with the product, the ease of installation, and the professional-courteous service I received.



by:

I am impressed with the service that I received. The hitch and installation brackets arrived within 4 days of when I ordered them. The quality of the hitch and materials is exactly as depicted on the website. After reading the installation instructions, installing the hitch should be a fairly simple project. The only problem I see is that I will have to drill one hole on each side frame but since I haven't installed it yet I don't know how easy it will be. I will follow up once I have it installed



by:

very pleased with the service and the gooseneck hitch installed just like the video explained I would highly recommend this hitch keith nc



by:

Excellent gooseneck hitch. Installs as usual and works great. Very reliable.



by:

The product is awesome ! But there should be option for the 5 inch extention, instead of the ball ,which you need if you have a F150 5.5 box. now I have a ball that is useless. Would be awesome if I could return just the ball!



by:

Perfect perfect fit a friend of mine put it in for me he said that it was easy to put in a great fit now I pull a two horse trailer with a dressing room so it's more than adequate and strength for it thank you very much



by:

Good price, fast shipping, was really easy to put in, had to use my cherry picker to lift the backend off of the suspension to make it easier but it wasn't bad. Only thing that worries me is the 2 pieces that mount to the side of the frame only have 2 bolts per side, I drilled 2 more holes in the frame and added 2 more bolts to each side. There is 5 holes on the kit per side, but only 2 holes on my frame. Maybe thats enough but I added some to be safe.



by:

Exactly what I wanted. Installation was easy enough. I would highly recommend etrailer. Customer service was great and fast shipping.



by:

Great product. Convenient to always have the ball there and ready to go.



by:

I love this hitch! It's been a year and I have had zero issues with it highly recommend this product and this company . Thank you for great and fast service.



by:

Wonderful product. Quick delivery. Easy-ish install.



by:

Realized I would not find time to install this product in a timely manner. Passed it on to my mechanic, he got it installed in a couple hours. Worked great on our first two trips, anticipate no problems. Great service from Dana, she answered all of my questions, was efficient and a pleasure with which to talk. I received my order quicker than I anticipated, delivered in excellent shape.



by:

Easy installation solid mounting



by:

It just arrived. Looks good. I'll know more after installation.



by:

The product was excellent and deliver was quick. The install instructions could have been a little bit more detailed, but the install still went well.



by:

The hitch was, and is, fine. The drawing was a bit confusing, but we straightened that out with direct call with manufacturer. Everyone concerned was very helpful and the confusion was resolved successfully. Thanks

  • Wheel and Tire Recommendation for Chris Craft Bow Runner Boat Trailer
    The closest trailer tire size to what you mentioned is the ST205/75-15 which is very close to what you mentioned and may have been what you meant to type. Radials are the way to go over bias ply tires. They flex better which allows them to be a lot more stable and not build heat up as much. Basically unless it's like an off-road setup radials always win. The Kenda Karrier Tire and Wheel part # AM32424 would be an excellent option. It is a Load Range D with a capacity of 2,150 lbs, has...
