B and W Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch Installation - 2017 GMC Sierra 3500

Today on our 2017 GMC Sierra 3500 we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the B&W Turnoverball Underbed gooseneck trailer hitch with custom installation kit, part number BWGNRK1016. One of the really nice features of our B&W Gooseneck is that it actually doubles as a base for our companion fifth wheel. If you have a gooseneck and also maybe a fifth wheel trailer, you can pick up the companion fifth wheel that will fit right in here, and then within a few minutes you can go from having a gooseneck to a fifth wheel trailer. What I really like about our B&W gooseneck is that it utilizes a square shank on our ball, that way when we go to put it in, and we need to line up our latch pin, it's going to be that much easier just to drop it into place, and we don't have to worry about it rotating and not lining up with our pin. It's going to give us a 2 5/16 ball and two safety chain loops that are going to allow us to tow a gooseneck trailer down the road. The really nice thing about this is that when we're done towing and we need to have more bed access, we can actually remove the ball, and instead of leaving it open to allow dirt and debris to fall in we can actually turn the ball upside down and drop it back in place, and now we'll have full bed access and not have to worry about having the ball interfere with anything. To release our latch, if we come to our driver's side, there's going to be a small handle. I'm going to pull it out and just slightly turn it counterclockwise, and that will release our latch pin to secure our ball.



Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit Installation - 2017 GMC Sierra 3500

Today on our 2017 GMC Sierra 3500, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Curt Ball and Safe Chain Loop Kit for Factory Chevy and GM Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitches, part number C60692. So here's what our ball mount and safety chain loops look like fully installed. Now this kit is for the factory prep package for GM and Chevrolet for our gooseneck or fifth-wheel trailer and this is gonna allow us to safely tow a gooseneck trailer down the road. Now the really nice thing about our kit here, is that since it is made specifically for the OEM prep package, this kit's going to install in less than five minutes, and then whenever you're done towing and you need to have your bed open so you can haul anything you may need, it'll uninstall and you can stow it away in less than five minutes as well. Each component of the kit is gonna use a different type of latching system. For instance, our ball here is gonna have a lever on top and if we rotate that, lift it up and rotate that lever, it's gonna loosen and take the tension off of our ball bearings here, which is what's gonna secure the ball to the mounting point in our bed. And again, to install it, we just lift up on that tab and we can turn the lever, which will allow the ball to fall back down, and then we can lock it into place.



Reese Elite Series Under-Bed Gooseneck Hitch Installation - 2017 GMC Sierra 3500

Today on our 2017 GMC Sierra 3500 we'll be having a look at and installing the Reese Elite Series Under Bed Gooseneck Complete Hitch, part number RP30158-68. Here's what our under bed gooseneck hitch looks like installed. In the middle here, we have the spot for our gooseneck ball, then we have these four pucks outside of our gooseneck ball area. These are where we can hook up our fifth wheel or other accessory that utilizes those, such as a Reese Elite Fifth Wheel Head. It'll drop right down into these pucks, and then we can tow a fifth wheel trailer or a gooseneck trailer without having to have any adapters above the bed of our truck. This gives us a nice clean look. Everything sits underneath the bed, so if we still need to use our truck as a truck, we don't have any worries about not being able to have full access of our bed.
