An economical gooseneck plate designed for use with above-the-bed fifth wheel rails. The plate has a 2-5/16" hitch ball, set into the holes on the fifth wheel rails, and is held in place with pins and clips.Just received my gooseneck plate today. Shipment was on time, and complete. It is extremely cold in michigan today, but went ahead and dropped it in my already mounted rails. It fit real nice. I'll put it to work next week.
Nathan C - 01/31/2020It went right in like it belonged there. My husband & I installed the hitch in 10 minutes...no tools except for a hammer to "convince" it into place. I installed this in a 2001 F-250. Planning a test run later today...I will update if I discover any major flaws. But I do not expect any trouble. Great service and my compliments to "George J"!!!!

This has been exactly what I needed and has performed perfectly. It was a direct fit into my rails. I haul a 20 foot tilt deck with this and we've been all over the country, several times. Highly recommend.
I use this hitch with a set of Reese above the bed rails for towing gooseneck trailers, mostly a small livestock trailer. One of the features I really like is that the ball is not centered front to back in the plate. This allows me to turn the plate around when the "neck" of the goose is shorter than makes me comfortable to give myself a few extra inches of clearance. Usually I have it turned so the ball is as far foward as possible as it gives the best weight distribution on to the truck. Very good product, I highly recommend it.
Purchased a used dually with bed rails already installed. Rather than remove them and go to a turn-over GN hitch, I tried this product. I am very satisfied with the end results. I pull a 30'+ horse trailer with living quarters. The hitch is very strong. I did have to makes some minor adjustments with a grinder to get it to go smoothly into my existing rails - took all of 10 minutes to complete.
Hitch arrived and works as expected
Had to do a lot of grinding on this to make it fit my Reese rails. I have a Reese 5th wheel hitch that fits the rails ok. When I first looked at my pickup it had a Reese gooseneck hitch in it. The person I bought the pickup from kept it so I know that the rails were ok. The jig they use to build these must be off some.
I wish I had pictures but I know that there is one that is already posted on here that speaks a 1000 words when I came looking for this hitch. It fit beautifully in the rails I had installed for a 5th-wheel hitch and was almost as easy to install as described. My rails were installed for the 5th wheel that has a bit more wiggle room for fitting. This hitch doesn't, so we had to lossen up one rail so that we could get it to slip in as it should and tightened it all back down. Used it to pull a fully loaded 4 horse trailer a couple of weekend ago and it worked beautifully. I would recommend to a friend, I would buy it again if I needed it and I think it was a great value for the price... :)
Lara K - 06/10/2016I've bought several products from etrailer. They were exactly what I needed and less expensive than anywhere else. They came to my front door quicker than expected, and they were the top quality brand name I expected them to be. I couldnt be happier with my purchases, or the knowledgable and helpful staff that got them to me.

I am very happy with this product. The price was good, it arrived a day early and it fit perfectly on my existing 5th wheel rails. It took about 2 minutes to set in place, install the locking pins and I was ready to go. I am a repeat customer and highly recommend etrailer.
Doyle W - 05/31/2014Very nice unit fits my truck perfectly
The product was exactly as described and shipped. Fits my Reese rails like it was a package deal. I have installed the Gooseneck plate but I have not had the chance to use it due to the ice storm currently in progress. I can't wait for the weather to clear and the unit to be put into use. Great company...great price...great doing business with eTrailer!!
Thanks for coming back to follow up with us. We are glad to know the plate is still working hard.

Patrick B - 2/21/2014Great product at the best price I could find on line! Now I have both hitch set ups to use on my bed rails. Fit was no problem and comes with the four pins/clips and extra bolts if you don't already have them installed on your bed rails.
Mike Z - 11/19/2015Very pleased with this product if you make the time to drill your holes right on your rails then this assembly comes on and off very easily to utilize your truck bed. We have many miles on this hitch with our 36 foot living quarters horse trailer
Bo - 03/29/2017Quick and trouble free service for a great product.
It was very well packaged and came extremely fast. All the parts were in there. I am very satisfied with this purchase. Thank you!
Janet P - 02/08/2020I've got a short bed so the ball swung to one end helps just that little extra. Fit great, easy installation. Customer service made the difference for me though. These products are all going to work, no matter who you get them from. Customer service helped me pick the least expensive shipping to get it to my house on time (and it made it just on time).
Stephen C - 12/06/2014Superb Quality all around from plate to pins, etc, I haven't used it yet but will hook up to my fifth wheel rails soon enough and see how she does! Thanks etrailer for getting it to me in a timely manner!
The specs were not quite right to fit the rails I have in place for my Trail Boss 5th wheel hitch. So I had to make some adjustments. The design itself is superior. It is just that fit to my system that is an issue.
Charles B - 05/10/2014Excellent product fast shipping always a pleasure working with etrailer
i odered a gooseneck plate for fith wheel rails , when i recieved the item i was suprised by the quality of the gooseneck, i shopped around alot and most places was 325.00, etrailer was half the cost and and shipping was free, they even upgraded to a faster delivery at no cost, ordering , finding the product was very easy , i could have saved alot of time if i would have went to etraler first. thanks don y
Your product worked perfectly, fit into my existing rails with no problems. Delivery was fast.
Simple and convenient i just bought a new/used truck which had rails installed so it was a simple choice to go with the 180.00 ball over installing a 700.00 bnw goosneck hitch
The hitch looks well made and solid. For some reason it would only fit one way in my rails. If the ball was turned closer to the tailgate, the rear hole on the passenger side of the bed wouldn't line up. The pin would go through the front hole on the rail and into the tab on the hitch, but was half a hole off on the back side of the rail. When I turned the ball closer to the front of the bed all four holes would line up. Doesn't make sense but I could not get the hole to line up for anything.
Do you have a question about this Gooseneck Hitch?
