Specs:
Even with the ball installed, the hitch takes up very little space in the truck bed. The rail system and gooseneck head unit is mounted under the bed. Only a 3-1/2" hole is required for the ball hole opening. Safety chain holders sit flush against truck bed floor.
When not in use, the ball can be flipped over and inserted back into the hole. The low profile design makes for uninhibited truck bed access when your carrying other gear.
The ball hole can then be covered with the included magnet to help keep dirt and debris out.
The heavy duty handle with reinforced locking pin holds the ball in place and is easily accessible in the wheel well. To store the ball, simply pull the handle and twist it to secure in the open position. Then remove the ball, flip it over and slide it upside down back into the hole. After placing the magnetic cover, simply rotate the handle in the wheel well back to its starting position and the stowed ball will be secure.

Videos are provided As a guide only. Refer To manufacturer
installation instructions And specs For complete information.
Today were going to review part number 9464-35 this is the Draw Tite Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with the installation kit. This kit is design to fit the Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 models with the six foot and eight foot beds. What you want to do is to determine the years that will fit in the models is if you go to the product page for this part number. At the bottom of the page therell be a listing of the models that this will fit the years and the models of Dodge Ram with this kit would fit on to. Now, this Underbed Gooseneck Hitch when installed on your vehicle you only have the ball and the safety chain loops that are visible in the truck bed. The rails and hardware, mounting brackets are all mounted under the bed.
You wont be able to see those in the truck bed. This will allow for full truck bed access when your ball stored. It does include this 2-5/16 ball that can be stored upside down in the bed when not in use. Just want to show you that right here this handle is what will release the ball. Right now its in the straight up position that means the handle cannot be pulled.
When this is installed this handle would be in your fender well. If you just push that handle down that will release it and allow you to pull it out and theres a little notch there that would stick on to that allow you to just pull up and remove the hitch ball. This is a 2-5/16 hitch ball and when you want to store it all you got to do is turn it upside down, drop it in to place, and its hidden now. Then just release the handle put it back up so the handle cannot be, and then it will lock that hitch ball in. Then they also include a nice magnetic cover that you can lay up over that keeps any dirt and grime from falling in to where the hitch ball is located.
A nice thing about this is, let me just show you. This hitch ball has a nice round shank, right here if you notice that will reduce the raddle in the hitch, the round sleeve and the ball have a tighter fit than any of the square design Goosenecks. Again, Im going to show you theres a little groove on this side and you have to line that up, theres a little pin that sticks out. It lines up that way if you turn it and try to get it in it wont fit that way, just line the screw up with the pin in there, that way it will line it up to allow the handle to go in and lock it in to place. Again, this handle you do have convenient fender well access to this handle to disconnect the trailer hitch ball.
This handle does have a nice easy grip to it. This Gooseneck also includes the safety chain attachment point right here that it flush in the truck bed. They are spring loaded so when you go to attach your safety chains you can just pull up on it, attach the chain, let it go. When you remove your safety chains and you let it go it will just pull right back down against the truck bed. Now, on this it is a vehicle specific rail kit thats install thats included with this that helps your Gooseneck installed very quickly. There is no drilling, welding, or bed removal required. As you can see this mounting brackets on the side, we have installed here a couple of the you can see the U-bolt this is what itll tighten up around your truck frame, these mounting brackets will attach to the truck frame, it makes for an extra strong hold and a quick install. The Gooseneck Hitch itself is attached to these rails with the four, five, eight inch diameter grade eight garage bolts. All the pieces have a eco base with a black powder coat finish for superior corrosion resistance. These parts are made in the USA, they do come with a limited lifetime warranty. Again, this ball size is 2-5/16. The towing capacity you will need to see your vehicles owners manual because this unit is rated to match the manufacturers tow rating. The Gooseneck Hitch head unit itself is rated at 30,000 pounds gross towing weight with a 7500 pound vertical load limit or pin weight. These rails are rated to much the manufacturers two rating in your owners manual. Installation tips basically when this is installed the only thing you have to drill in your truck bed is the 3 inch diameter hall for this ball to fit in to. The safety chain attachment point, these spring loaded U-bolt you just would drill four 9/16 holes that these would fit through. Thats all that require of drilling holes in to the truck bed.This part is tested to Vehicle Equipment Safety Commission Standards which is VESC-19. Again, just to show you, you can pull the hitch ball out, just turn it, drop it in to place, at the handle turn it up so the handle is lock, the ball wont come up, put the magnetic cover on. Youd have nothing, have full truck bed access. Now, when you go to use it just turn the handle down, release it, pull up, flip it over, its that easy to go.That should do it for the review on part number 9464-35 the Draw Tite Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch with the installation kit. .

Great product at a great price! I measured out the 3.5" hole location as the directions said for a 8 ft bed on my 2010 Ram 3500 4X4 quad cab. I drilled the hole and deburred, Removed the rear fender well panels and proceded to slide the rails over the chasis. I had to bend the steel flange where the bed is put together during fabrication to have enough room to fit the rail between the bed and the chasis. This was only done on one side in one location. The rails slid right in and I continued on with the install. It was a little hard by myself but I managed. I did not have a lift and was lying on my back under the truck half the time. I did not have to remove my rear tires, raise the bed or remove exhaust to install. I did notice that I could have drilled the 3.5" hole about 3/8" to 1/4" less than the specified distance for perfect alignment on the chasis but all worked out well and it tows great! I'm very satisfied with my hitch and the experience with Etrailer, Thanks Etrailer! 182288

Hitch and installation kit installed with no trouble. I didn't even have to drop the exhaust on my '08 Ram 3500 DRW. I was very happy with the fit and it appears to be a very durable unit. The cable I purchased with the hitch also worked as advertised and instructions were clear and kit seems a very high quality. Overall, very happy with this purchase. 216111
Both continue to work fine!

For not knowing and never putting a gooseneck hitch in before after reading the instructions and figuring out how things work in went in easy the only problem I had was getting the ball to line up with the hole in the bed of the truck but a couple good hits from a rubber mallet and it popped right in. Works great and looks great will get a lot of use on the farm. 208650

Ordered the hide a ball gooseneck hitch I had it in 4 business days with the free shipping, and if that wasn't good enough I found a cheaper priced hitch on another site after I bought it, and etrailer refunded me the difference plus 5% and lowered the price online so that the customers are getting the best bang for the buck with hands down the best customer service I have encountered yet. As far as the hitch goes it comes with plenty of instructions and all the hardware and took a buddy and I 2 hours from start to finish to complete. Great product, great service 168992

My son and I bought the Hide-a-Goose set up for his 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 Mega Cab. The shipping of the 111 lbs. packages (came in 2 boxes) was fast! Upon arrival, the instructions were right-on and easy to follow. We took our time and the installation went off without a hitch(pun intended!). We purchased the "no drilling required" kit and the only holes needed were through the truck bed. George kept us updated and we really appreciate the guys at etrailer. I highly recommend their products and would most definitely buy from etrailer again! Thanks guys! Leon W. 246677

Great gooseneck hitch. I pulled my trucks limit with the hitch and towing has never felt so good. I will never go back to tag trailer again. The hitch is sturdy, well designed. I would recommend that anyone buying a hide a goose, that they frequently shift the lever and pull the ball out. Keep it clean to help prevent seizing up. Very useful if you also need the bed of your truck unobstructed. Customer service was top notch! UPS's delivery however... could use some better handling practices. Hands down best hitch I have ever installed and used. 177955

I gave you Guys 100% for quality and service. Excellence and professionalism. My first time buying a Dodge Ram, known nothing about Hitches. And because of the step by step information, I install this Hitch perfectly also the Trailer Brake Controller. You Guys save me $1,600, you're my source and I will recommend you Guys to everyone. Thanks again!!!! 159236
by: WC08/15/2016
Hitch is outstanding unit and would highly recommend to all. Installation is 50% easer to install with a hydraulic left instead of crawling around on a floor creeper. There is no need to cut or remove anything on your truck except for the ball opening, just hard to muscle laying on your back. But guess what all gooseneck installations are this way. 284101
by: Kelley KARS08/13/2016
Very Easy Install my 2011 instructions said to remove bed bolts but the 2012 video said no need so I followed the 2012 video and did not remove bed or wheels just spare and rear pipe after cat/muffler. slid right in like 2012 and bolted right up. Good Product and E trailer videos and instructions make it very easy DIY. 283442

So far seems to be a good product. Went together well and fit right under the bed. Cant beat the price. Thanks E-Trailer 43802

I installed this Gooseneck onto my 2004 Dodge Ram 2500. I had a little difficulty installing the cross members but other than that it was fairly easy to install. I've hauled our fifth wheel twice now and it works perfect. I very much recommend a gooseneck over a traditional fifth wheel. I also suggest air bags too. 228284
by: Charles D.12/11/2012
So far the hitch is working very well. Installation was relatively easy. A few notches in the bed seam and we were on our way. We installed two of them in the same model pickups and found that on the second one we didn't have to drop the exhaust pipes so installation was much easier. 61135

Received hitch in about 3 or 4 days; shipping was delayed due to weather. With the help of my wife I was able to install this hitch on my Dodge 3500 in about 2 hours. Only removed spare tire, did not have a lift and did not take the exhaust brcakes off. Went in pretty easy. 175864
by: Eric S.01/28/2012
Installation and fit were not quite as easy as the video on here made it look, but with two guys it was not terrible. Final product is awesome and looks nice. The little magnetic cover is kinda flimsy but i am sure i can make something a little more heavy duty. 30482

after waiting two weeks for another on-line company to ship the hitch I order, then being told three more weeks for it to be shipped I cancelled order and reorder from etrailer and received it in three days, box was torn open but every thing was there. It did not take 90 minutes about 3 hours still not bad. Hitch looks good have to wait to try it 299571

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
The product itself seems to be ok, my main problem was with the installation instructions, namely the measurement as to where to drill the hole in the bed of a 2008 Ford F250 crew cab diesel short bed. I first watched and used etrailer.com's video instructions where they installed this same hitch on a 2008 Ford F250 diesel just like mine so I thought it would be pretty accurate. Well it was except for the most important part, the measurement as to where to drill the hole in the bed. On the video it said drill at 47 7/8". I should have double checked the instructions from draw-tite but felt etrailer's video would be correct. It wasn't though. After drilling the hole and realizing it was off I looked at draw-tite's instructions which said drill hole at 46 3/16" so luckily I was able to use the hole saw again to very carefully drill a hole at 46 3/16" only to find out on my truck this was wrong also as it was too short! I was able to make it work by trimming the edges where the two holes met and so now I have an oval hole instead of a circle. I measured the center of the hole after installing it and I should have drilled the hole at around 46 5/8". If I was to do it again I would have installed the plate under the bed and tightened it up and marked on the underside of the bed the center of the hole. Then removed the hitch plate and used a punch or small drill bit to drill up from bottom of bed to mark center of hole. Just make sure you know where the center is before you drill and don't just rely on the measurement given in the instructions. Luckily this was not a new truck with a nice bed and I had a plastic bedliner that covered up my mistake! Probably should have went with the B&W my buddy installed in his truck with no problems! 160419

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
Excellent product, easy to follow directions. Videos was great help. Installers in videos make it seem a simple install. I would say if you haven't installed one before it will most likely take more time than expected. Take your time and follow directions step by step. Some unexpected encounters with my truck was a plastic channel than ran along bottom of wheel wheels on both sides that had wiring running thur them. Had to lower to install fasteners. The cross members have threaded studs on end that are painted. Take a wire brush and remove paint from the studs so nuts will go on easy. 57665

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
I ordered this hitch 4 days ago, received it yesterday, and installed it today. This is a quality product, with good instructions and it is well made. I installed this on a 94 Dodge 2500, with 205,000 miles on it. I expected to experience some issues due to age and crude, but this proved to be a very straight forward process. From start to finish, it took me 3 hours, and I only ran into two issues. First, I did have to drill a hole in each side plate- my truck only had one existing hole in the frame that lined up with the plate. So, I drilled an extra hole in each plate, which was simpler than drilling holes in the frame. And two, there was a heavy layer of powercoating on the threaded ends of the cross rails, which made it difficult to get the nuts started. Aside from that, the product was excellent, the design is great and expidites installation, and it functions well. 39176

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
Hitch seems to be built fairly well as far as the head and rail kit. The side plates for the frame are not even as thick as my frame rail. Didn't like that. Also a major turn off to this hitch, on my truck, a 2001 dodge 2500 short bed, the carriage bolts that hold the head to the rails, the heads hit the bed floor, enough to where the bed does not sit flush on the frame. 4 1 inch holes had to be drilled in the bed to let the bolt heads through. Also used a hare bigger hole saw than 3.5 to give some wiggle room. But the bolts hitting the floor needs to be addressed by draw tite. Wouldn't recommend for a dodge pickup 191838

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
Nice kit, tough job w/out a lift but can be done, keep in mind the U bolts for breakaway chain attachment are different and s/b installed per the instructions to avoid interference with the fuel tank, etc. Figured it would include electrical kit but was not, likely due to too many configuration options and truck types. 184333

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
This Drawtight Hide a goose was the perfect product for my 2011 Ford F250 Diesel 6 3/4 bed Crew Cab truck. The how to video was very helpful. One installation note I would add is the the driver side U bolt should be put into position before placing the side bracket onto the truck. Once the side brace is up you cannot reach around to get the u bolt into position very easily. It took less than 3 hours for me to instal by myself without having access to a lift. Very satisfied with the product and the quality. I tow extremely expensive Jet Aircraft and absolutely trust this hitch will perform for years to come. 198440

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
I couldn't be more pleased with this product. The instructions were very easy to understand. The only thing that was any different from what they said was that the safety chain u bolts were supposed to be in a lower corrugation of the bed but on my truck the holes were only on a upper corrugation. So, they are a 1/4" higher than they would have been, oh well. The local shop wanted to charge my buddy $500 to install a gooseneck hitch, so I decided to attempt mine at home. It went without a hitch, haha, so hopefully he will just buy one of these and buy a couple cases and some pizza. 9196

I installed the hitch on a 2011 F-150 crew cab with 5 1/2 ft bed. Works perfect with no clearance issues between the truck cab and a platform style gooseneck trailer. Well engineered product. I would recommend using a lift and removing both rear tires and the spare for more working room. I also marked and drilled the hole for the ball from underneath the bed for a perfect fit. 203602

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
The video was helpful but was not right for my truck, I was unable to install the cross struts like the video shows, and the instullatiion was a two man job. 63730
I had the same problem with my 06 f250 but I realized after fighting it for about 3 hours over 3 days that my bed was bent up pretty bad from the previous owner...I knew it was but didnt realize at the time it would cause a major headache when installing this hitch...Im guessing a straight bed would have saved me hours upon hours of trying to get the rails installed.

Review from a similar Draw-Tite Hide-A-Goose in Gooseneck
The hitch arrived 2 days after ordering,packages were tore up but all parts were intact. Haven't installed yet, but will this weekend, the parts look well made and heavy enough to support the load.If you watch the video on installing it says to measure 48 inches from the end of the bed for a 2006 Super Duty mine is a 05 and the instructions say 46&3/8 from the end. I think I will install than measure remove and drill the hole just to make sure. 162368
