So if I just open this up, pull the ball out, you can see the two holes where the two pins will go in and lock it into place. They do use zinc plating on the locking mechanism to provide superior corrosion resistance.If you notice the ball, it's a chrome plated hitch ball, it easily removes when you're not towing for complete access to your truck bed.

Recommended Best Truck For Towing 20,000-Lb Gooseneck Trailer
When asked for our recommendation about trucks that are towing fifth wheel or gooseneck trailers, most of the time we will recommend 1-ton trucks with an 8-ft bed and a diesel engine. The truck I recommend is the Ram 3500 Dually Tradesman with a 6.7 Cummins diesel and a 4.10 axle ratio. The towing capacity for this truck is 31,210 lbs. With a 3.73 axle ratio the towing capacity is 25,910 lbs. So if you plan on towing anything bigger than the trailer you are pulling I would go with...

How to Tell if 2017 Ford F-250 has Factory Rail Kit/Factory Prep Package
The factory rail kit is also known as the factory prep package on your 2017 Ford F-250. The difference is that the prep package includes the 4 holes plus the gooseneck hitch ball hole in the center. You can see an example of this in the attached video. If you do not have the factory rail kit (or factory prep package) then you will not have the 5 holes in your truck bed. If you do have the factory rail kit then you can just purchase the Curt Ball and Safety Chain Loop Kit # C60692...

Comparison of Gooseneck and 5th Wheel Hitch For 2003 GMC Sierra 2500 HD Diesel Truck
Yes, there are fifth-wheel to gooseneck adapters and we do carry them. Gooseneck hitches are typically used to haul construction or agricultural trailers and fifth-wheel hitches are mainly used to haul campers. Gooseneck hitches are usually rated to haul 25,000 to 30,000 pounds, some fifth-wheel hitches are capable of doing the same, but other fifth-wheel hitches are rated lower. When towing, your towing setup is only as strong as the weakest towing component, whether it is your hitch,...

Tips for Removing Stuck Gooseneck Hitch Ball
The first thing you will need to do is apply liberal amounts of spray lubricant to all of the moving parts that seem stuck. Sometimes it helps to apply some, wait an hour or so and apply more and then do whatever it takes to pry the ball out. If you can access the bottom of the hitch from underneath the truck bed try hitting it with lubricant from that angle as well. You may also be able to get a decent amount of force applied from here as well to get the hitch out. The more lube...

What Underbed Support Is Needed For Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate, # C65500, To Meet Maximum GTW Rating
I called Curt on the Curt Gooseneck Flat Plate, # C65500, and they said that the plate can be installed to the frame rails with a minimum of six 1/2 inch Grade 5 mounting bolts, but that would not allow the plate to meet the 30,000 lbs. GTW rating. To be able to meet the 30,000 lbs. GTW rating you will have to install the Curt flat plate with the Curt Universal Gooseneck Ball Rail Kit, # C61502. This kit will install under the bed to the frame rails and give the extra reinforcement that...

Cutting Hole In Truck Bed To Install Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # 9464-35
Installation of the Hide-A-Goose Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch, part # 9464-35, will require using a hole saw to drill into the bed of your Dodge Ram pickup.

If you have a 6 foot bed, you will measure 44 inches from the rear edge of the truck bed and centered between the wheel wells. If you have an 8 foot bed, you will measure 46 inches from the rear edge...

Solution for Safety Chains that Won't Fit Ram Hitch Prep Safety Chain Loops
The safety chain loops that come with the # RP30140 that you referenced are shaped in such a way that they won't allow any and all safety chains to attach to them. We have found that the safety chains part # FCHA0070324 will fit the loops though so your best option at this point will be to replace the chains on your trailer. These chains have a ridiculously high capacity of 45,200 lbs so they would work very well for you.

Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for Cab and Chassis Truck
The Curt Flat Plate Gooseneck # C65500 is a multi-fit application that can be used on a cab and chassis truck. Typically, the plate would be placed on top of the flat bed over the rear axle. The Universal Rail Kit, part # C61502 can be used to provide the under bed bracing. Holes would be drilled through the plate, through the bed and into the frame members and the rail kit. At least six 1/2 inch grade 5 bolts need to be used to fasten the plate to the rail kit. At this time there...

Comparison of Gooseneck Hitch Balls to Fit Ram Truck with Factory Goosneck Package
The Curt # C60618, Reese # RP30140, and B&W # BWGNXA2062 hitch balls that fit the factory gooseneck hitch in your Ram are all great quality. There are a few differences though, mainly the way the ball is locked into place. The Curt has an integrated lever in the top of the ball that activates the ball bearings in the shank. The lever is made of steel and very easy to access and use. The Reese ball has a similar lever only you pull and turn it. It's also made of plastic intead of steel...

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,...

Will Gooseneck Hitches Fit a 2016 Ram 2500 with Ram Boxes
If your 2016 Ram 2500 with the Ram Box has coil springs, I recommend the B&W # BWGNRK1384 gooseneck hitch for your 6 foot bed with Ram Boxes on the side. This gooseneck hitch will have a 7,500 TW and a 30,000lb GTW. There will be no drilling to install the frame brackets of this installation kit. If you don't have coil spring then I recommend the Curt # C60614 gooseneck hitch, because it has the same towing capacities as the B&W gooseneck hitch. I have linked the above mentioned...

The Rapid Hitch Ranch Hitch adapter, part # AM3100 is one of our best sellers, but keep in mind that using the adapters can void some fifth wheel warranties because of the extra stress they can place on the frame of the fifth...

Four of the holes forming a square around one in the center. That one in the center would be the gooseneck ball hole. If those holes are not present then the truck does not have the factory installed prep package.
