• Curt Pop-In or Ford and Ram OEM Compatibility with Offset for Better Turning Clearance
  
• The Curt 4" Offset Ball for Double-Lock Gooseneck Hitch # C602 is available only if you have the double-lock model. The other Curt models that drop in and lock through the ball lever like # C60601 featuring the Pop-In or OEM Underbed System will not have the offset option available, so it is a bummer the dealer didn't give you what you asked for with your 2018 Ram 2500 Laramie. To give you the clearance you desire, the other option is to use a gooseneck coupler offset like # BWTEXA4200...

• Comparing Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch # 60720 to # 60683
  
• The Curt Double Lock # C60720 and the Curt EZr Double Lock # C60683 are basically the same gooseneck hitch. The difference is in the installation. The EZr gives you the ability to ensure the hole you drill in the bed is perfect without the need to measure. It instead uses the Center locator tool that allows you to drill from the bottom up for a perfect fit. The regular Double Lock system simply requires measuring and then you drill from the top down. If you are good with a tape measure,...

• Gooseneck Clearance Equation and Offset Ball Options for 2017 Ford F-350 Short Bed
  
• For your 2017 F-350 short bed, the clearance calculation is the measurement from the cab to ball center minus 1/2 the trailer width. This will give you the minimum clearance. If that number is positive the trailer will not interfere with the cab of the truck, but if it is negative then it will interfere and you need to be extremely cautious. We do have offset hitch balls that are hitch specific to gain more clearance and we also have the B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler - 2-5/16"...

• Recommended Curt Gooseneck Hitch for 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 5-1/2 Foot Bed
  
• I do have a solution for you, however the Curt Double Lock Underbed Gooseneck Hitch # C607-604 referenced in your question is only designed to fit the 2018 Silverado 2500 or 3500 that features a longer bed. It will not work on your Silverado 1500 that has the 5-1/2 foot bed. For the Curt Double Lock Gooseneck Hitch that is designed to fit your truck you instead need the part # C615-632. This is confirmed to fit and includes custom brackets that use existing holes in the truck's frame...

• Recommended Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Extender For 2016 Ram Truck With Short Bed
  
• We do offer offset gooseneck hitch balls but they are designed for specific gooseneck hitches. If you have a Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch, I recommend part # 19308. This extender has a 5-inch offset. If the gooseneck hitch in your truck is B&W Turnoverball hitch, the 4-inch extender I recommend is Part # BWGNXA4085. If you have a Curt Double-Lock, Flip and Store gooseneck hitch, then the 4-inch extender I recommend is part # C602.

• Gooseneck Extension for 2005 Dodge Ram Truck with 6 ft Bed
  
• You can measure from the center of your existing gooseneck ball to the back of the cab on the Dodge and then measure the width of the trailer loft and divide that by two. If the measurement from the center of the hitch ball to the cab is 4 inches greater than one half the width of the trailer you should have room for clearance. If not you will need to purchase an offset gooseneck ball that is long enough to provide the 4 inches clearance needed to accommodate pitch and roll of the trailer...

• Do I Have Enough Clearance On my Ford F250 6 ft bed to Turn Sharp with a Gooseneck Trailer
  
• In order to determine if you will have enough clearance or how much of an extension would be required to safely execute a 90 degree turn you will need to take a few measurements and use the following formula. The formula looks like this: (A + B) - C = Clearance Where A equals distance from center of gooseneck coupler to truck cab, B equals the distance in front of or behind the the front of your trailer the center of the coupler is. So if there was an overhang on the front of the...

• Can An Offset Gooseneck Hitch Ball Be Used With An Extended 5th Wheel To Gooseneck Adapter
  
• It sounds to me like you have a 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter like the Ranch Hitch Universal 5th-Wheel-to-Gooseneck Coupler Adapter part # AM3100 already installed on your 5th wheel trailer. To answer your question, yes, a 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter is compatible with an offset gooseneck hitch ball. It is important to not that an offset gooseneck adapter, such as part # AM3139, should not be used with an offset gooseneck ball. However, as gooseneck hitch balls are specific to the...

• Offset Hitch Gooseneck Ball and 5th Wheel Trailer to Gooseneck Hitch Adapters
  
• The Curt offset ball, # C602, is designed for use with the Double-Lock, Flip and Store gooseneck hitches. If you have a different hitch then this ball is not going to fit. You will need to go by the hitch manufacturer to get a compatible ball. If the trailer is a 5th wheel trailer and not a gooseneck trailer then you will need an adapter to be able to tow the trailer. A 5th wheel king pin is not compatible with a gooseneck hitch ball. The best option is the Goosebox, # RP94622, for Lippert...

• Can I Make a 90 Degree Turn with the Reese Goosebox
  
• You're definitely going to want to do some test runs after installing a Goose Box, like part # RP94720, or a trailer because you're correct that it's very unlikely you can make a full 90 degree turn. A Goose Box also doesn't increase your turning clearance either. In order to increase clearance to make turns you need to use a goosneck ball with an offset, such as part # C602. You need to choose an offset ball that fits your specific gooseneck hitch.

• USA Made Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for a 2011 Ford F-250
  
• Both of the gooseneck hitches you mentioned would work well for you, but since you asked about which is made in the USA I would recommend the Curt part # C60720 as it is made in the USA and the Draw Tite is no longer made here. Since your truck is a short bed you will want the offset part # C602 to give you additional clearance. For a 7-way to install in the bed of your truck to make connecting your trailer lights easier you would want the part # 41157. Most 7-ways will be at the...

• Offset Hitch Ball for a 2017 Ram 2500 with Factory Puck System
  
• I do have an option for you but they do not make an offset gooseneck hitch ball that will work with the factory puck system on your 2017 Ram 2500 which includes the Curt 4" Offset Ball for Double-Lock Gooseneck Hitch part # C602. Instead, you are going to want to use the B&W Extend-A-Goose Gooseneck Coupler part # BWTEXA4200 which fits most trailers with a 4" diameter outer tube and will provide you with a 10" offset. I have attached a review video for you as well.

• Will the Reese Goose Box # RP94622-61301 Work with a 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD with 6.6 Foot Bed
  
• The Goose Box will not extend your king pin any further than the OEM Lippert 1716 pin box it replaces. To determine if it will provide enough clearance for turns, you will need to take a few measurements and make a few calculations. You will need to measure the distance between the center of the existing gooseneck ball and the rear of the truck cab. If the king pin extends past the front face of the trailer, the distance it extends should be added to the distance from the cab to the...

• Will A Curt Offset Gooseneck Ball Fit Into A B&W Gooseneck Hitch
  
• I called my contact at Curt Manufacturing and they confirmed that the Curt 4" Offset Ball for Double-Lock Gooseneck Hitch part # C602 will not fit into the gooseneck ball location on a B&W gooseneck hitch such as the B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch part # BWGNRK1012. This is due to the fact that the Curt ball mounts for gooseneck hitches are circular in shape whereas the ball mounts for B&W gooseneck hitches are square.

• Can 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 5-1/2 foot Bed Tow Gooseneck Trailer
  
• For a truck like your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that has a 5-1/2 foot bed it's typically not recommended to try and tow a gooseneck or fifth wheel hitch trailer. Unless the nose is tapered like a stock trailer where there's essentially no nose you'll have turning clearance issues. If the nose is tapered like that we have the Curt gooseneck hitch part # C615-632 as a confirmed fit which will work well. This hitch gives you a setup where you can flip the ball upside down when not needed and is...

My contact at Curt said that with a 6 foot bed and diesel the installation kit should still fit. Since you do have a short bed and crew cab, you may also need an offset ball. You can use # C602 which is compatible with the Double Lock hitch and has a 4 inch offset.
