Built to handle serious weight, this gooseneck hitch is rated for 25,000 lbs gross towing weight and 6,250 lbs vertical load. It’s made for pulling large horse trailers, dump trailers, or equipment haulers without any flex or instability. The fixed 2-5/16" ball gives you a solid, dependable connection that stays steady even when the load is maxed out.
Short-bed truck owners often fight for turning clearance, and that’s where the built-in 3" offset makes a difference. By moving the ball slightly back from the center, this setup gives extra space between the cab and trailer overhang. It’s a simple way to reduce the chance of contact when backing into tight spots or making sharper turns.
This above-bed gooseneck hitch drops right onto standard fifth-wheel rails from Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, or Valley. The included pins and clips lock it in place for a secure fit and quick removal when you want your bed open. No special adapters are needed—just align it with the inner rail slots (10" left to right and 22" front to back center spacing) and pin it down.
With a heavy steel plate and durable carbide powder coat finish, this hitch resists corrosion and handles tough conditions without wearing down. Built-in safety-chain loops give solid anchor points right on the plate so you can hook up quickly and stay compliant where separate chain points aren’t required. It’s a straightforward design made to last through years of towing duty.

Wow! I ordered this Sunday night watching a football game. Showed up Tuesday mid-afternoon! Super fast shipping! Took it out of the box and found it to be very sturdy. It dropped right in my existing rails without any problems. EXACTLY what I was after and what I thought it would be. I can now switch easily between towing a camper and a horse trailer. First experience with etrailer, and would highly recommend them to family, friends and you!
Great product great price!! Now I can tow goose neck trailers as well as fifth wheel trailers with my other hitch assemble!!!
Well built, fits perfectly. Excellent service and prompt delivery as stated.
First let me say I was very appreciative of Angela working with me to get the gooseneck hitch in time to meet my needs. The hitch fit perfectly in my existing rails. Thanks to the shipping folks as well.
Received my hitch in the mail on Tuesday, and had it installed in under 90 seconds into my existing rails. Great, solid and sturdy construction. Excellent finish. Will be used to haul 4 - 6 horse aluminum GN trailer.
This ball is heavy duty and super easy to install. I store it mounted by two of the pins forward of the Fifthwheel. When I use the goose neck I just swap the ball and fifth wheels places.
Fit right into my 5th wheel bars. Solid product. I have a Chevy 3500HD and needed to tow the ranches gooseneck trailer. My truck sits a lot higher and the trailer front is pretty high but towed without an issue.
I believe that It's going to work great!
I received my order within days and opened the box and in 5 minutes dropped it into place. Currently have a 16k fifth wheel attachment on a Reese foundation. The gooseneck plate fit just like it was made for it. No tools required. This now makes my F-250 more adaptable to different trailers.
Super fast shipping and dropped right into my 5th rails. Didn’t even have to pull the 5th wheel hitch to install it. Took about 5 minutes. Heavy packaging ensued the hitch was in excellent shape.
I haven’t drilled the one bolt they recommend but will do it, should be simple and easy to get to.
Couldn’t be easier. Highly recommend!
Great hitch. Followed directions and excellent install videos from your website. First time installing one and had no issues. Fast shipping also.
2012 Ford F-250 - Fast shipping and easy to follow directions we’re included. Bed rails and side plates lined up perfectly. My bed has the line x bed liner so I added 1/8” for setting the first rail. I highly recommend using a step bit to drill your holes for the rails. No drilling was required on the frame. This was completed by myself in about 4 hours with no lift. Definitely could be completed faster with another hand or lift. Measure several times and drill once and everything will line up great.
the company was great at getting my order out for delivery It was here fast as possible. I would recomend this company for ordering.
I used it today and it worked great.
Since being installed on my truck I have been able to rely on the hitch with zero problems, every time. Plenty of ease trading it out for my fifth wheel hitch and back again. Thank you for such a great product!!
Works better than expected with a short bed truck, the gooseneck trailer I have is not adjustable and is mainly for flatbed use only but with this hitch and rail setup I’m not concerned about rubbing on the bed sides or tailgate, I also have more than enough clearance for tight Maneuvers.
Received the Curt bent plate gooseneck hitch in less than a week and it fit right in the existing fifth wheel rails. Really like this hitch and with it I am going to be able to salvage a trailer that hasn't been on the road since 1994 that would have ended up as scrap metal otherwise! Thank you etrailer for the prompt and reliable service.
I was looking for a way to shift my 5 th Wheel gooseneck hitch back b/c it was hitting my toolbox. Because I had a Ford with the factory installed hitch this was the only option. R Trailer walked me through what I needed and it worked great!
Hardest part was removing the fifth wheel hitch from the cross bracket due to it being so heavy. The gooseneck adapter was a breeze to install and works flawlessly.

Works great still
Great customer service!! Fast delivery!! Easy to install!! Everything about this purchase was easy and the product is in the truck and it worked great when we tried it out. Thank you all for your great service!! We highly recommend this company!!
Great product at a great price. Needed a gooseneck for occasional hauling but didn't want to lose my 5th wheel rails and this fit the bill. Had to loosen the bolts on one rail to get it to sit in place but was a 10 min fix. Had about 10k behind me so far through various terrains and it has done nothing other than what it is intended for. Can't say enough about customer service either, any question i had they had helpful advice and were nothing but nice. Would reccomend this product and ETrailer to anyone in need.

I am still loving it. Use it very often with our horse trailer and stock trailer. Has been every where and done every thing i have asked of it with no issues. Still happy with the purchase and glad i went with this product.
Plate fit directly to my bed rails. Easy install and fast shipping!
This thing is HEAVY DUTY!!! Fits right in to the standard fifth wheel hitch rails and even comes with (4) new hitch pins to secure it with. Highly recommend to anyone needing a gooseneck ball that already has a fifth wheel hitch installed.
