The Safe Load ball makes it simple to dial in your trailer before you ever hit the highway. Just hook up, check the built-in scale, and you’ll see your tongue weight right on the hitch. You can adjust your cargo until everything’s balanced and within safe limits without needing a separate weigh station. It’s fast, accurate, and gives you peace of mind that your load is ready for the miles ahead.
This setup is made for serious haulers. With a 30,000 lbs gross towing weight and a 7,500 lbs vertical load limit, it’s built to handle heavy equipment, livestock trailers, or big fifth wheel conversions. The 2-5/16" stainless steel ball locks securely into place with two included keys and stays solid under pressure. V19 and J2638 safety certifications back up its strength when you’re pulling your heaviest loads.
When the trailer’s unhooked, pop out the ball and chain anchors in minutes to clear your bed. The below-the-bed design keeps the surface open for normal use, while the included rubber cap keeps dirt out of the hitch hole. Everything stows neatly in the hard-sided case, so your gear is protected and ready for next time.
The stainless steel construction fights rust no matter what weather or terrain you tow through. The locking ball design ensures a tight fit in your gooseneck hitch so there’s no rattle or movement when towing over long hauls. With its precision build and quick setup, this kit gives you a reliable connection every time you line up under the trailer.

I apologize for the packaging issues! What you’re describing with the clunk under braking is something we do see from time to time with gooseneck setups, especially when there’s just a little bit of clearance between the ball and coupler. That forward and back movement can definitely translate into that “bang” you’re hearing. Since you mentioned your factory ball doesn’t have that same movement, I’d start by comparing how this one is seating in the hitch and how the coupler fits on it. A couple simple things that can help are making sure the ball is well greased and double checking your trailer brake settings so the trailer isn’t pushing as much during stops. It’s also worth taking a look at the coupler itself to make sure everything is tight and not worn, since even a small amount of extra space there can amplify the noise. If you’d like, feel free to share a photo of how everything is hooked up and we can take a closer look with you to help narrow it down and get you some peace of mind while towing.

Walton, I really appreciate you taking the time to share this, and I can understand why that amount of movement would be concerning, especially on a brand new truck. What you’re describing with the play and visible movement is not something you’d expect to see to that degree. While some minimal clearance can exist in gooseneck setups, it definitely shouldn’t feel excessive or create that kind of rattle. We’d want to take a closer look at your setup to help figure out exactly what’s going on. If you’re able to share a photo or a bit more detail on how the ball is sitting in the hitch, that would help us narrow it down and make sure everything is working as it should.
