Install this heavy-duty hitch on your vehicle so that you can securely tow your gooseneck trailer. Store the removable ball upside down in the hitch when you aren't towing to get complete bed access. Square ball base won't turn in hitch.

Specs:
With the B&W Turnoverball underbed gooseneck trailer hitch you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck trailer. And when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get full bed access and a clean appearance.
The durable steel hitch ball included with the Turnoverball system secures in the hitch with a sturdy, 5/8" thick steel pin that is incorporated into the end of the operating handle. To lock the ball in place, drop it into the hitch hole in the bed of your truck. Then rotate the handle in your driver's-side wheel well counterclockwise until the latch engages. When the latch is engaged, the spring-loaded pin on the end of the handle will be inserted all the way through the base of the hitch ball, forming a strong, solid connection and ensuring absolute security when you're towing.
When you're done towing, remove the hitch ball by simply pulling the handle out as far as it will go and then rotating it clockwise until it unlatches. Remove the ball, flip it upside down, and drop it back into the ball hole of the hitch. Then reengage the latch to secure the stowed ball in place.
Unlike typical gooseneck balls - which have round bases - the Turnoverball hitch ball is designed with a square base. This makes latching the ball in the hitch easier because the base won't rotate inside of the hitch like a round base might, so lining the pin up is a snap. The base of the ball also fits tightly within the ball hole during storage. Because only the corners of the base contact the sides of the socket, any dirt or grime that gets into the hitch will fall through the socket, thus helping to prevent any buildup that could cause the ball to seize up in the hitch.
Simple, Custom Installation
This hitch is custom designed for your vehicle. The included mounting brackets bolt to existing holes in your truck's frame. While some modification is required - you will need to cut a 4" diameter hole in your bed for the hitch ball and drill holes for the built-in safety chain loops - there is no need to weld onto or to drill into your frame.
Once you have the hitch brackets and body installed, set up the operating handle. This handle is designed to be accessed from the rear driver's-side wheel well. On the end of the handle is the heavy-duty steel pin that secures the hitch ball.
B&W makes it easy to tow just about anything. With the many adapters and accessories available, the Turnoverball can be made to work with almost any gooseneck trailer. Hitch balls are available that have a built-in rise, an offset, and even a different connection type. Add on the Companion fifth-wheel hitch - which attaches directly to the Turnoverball with no other parts required - and you can tow your fifth-wheel trailer.

Install this heavy-duty hitch on your vehicle so that you can securely tow your gooseneck trailer. Store the removable ball upside down in the hitch when you aren't towing to get complete bed access. Square ball base won't turn in hitch.I purchased this to pull a 25Ton GN trailer with heavy equipment and so far it works great! Good price point and reliable product. I would highly recommend this product and trailer. Thank you!
It’s been about a year now of use with my gooseneck trailers. What a great improvement from using the hitch under the bumper. Still solid and functions flawlessly. Make sure to lube the pin that locks the ball, if grime gets in there it gums it up and doesn’t release it completely.
This has worked perfect. I love being able to flip the ball over and having a regular truck bed when I am not hauling the 5th wheel
Great hitch, not as hard to install as I thought it would be.
I did not have to take the bed off the truck. Only had to remove the spare tire, and put it back when I was done.
Easy install, high quality, operates correctly, good value. I pulled a 36' Enclosed Gooseneck completely filled with out house items 2400 miles. Hitch worked great, no issues.
Product build and quality seem to be exceptional. The instructions were spot on step by step. No major problems occurred until one lock washer kept wanting to split out from underneath the nut. I did decided to loosen the bed bolts and jack up the bed to slide everything into place after drilling the 4 inch hole. If you do decided to lift the bed, I would recommend spraying the bed bolts and fasteners with penetrating oil. A second set of hands helped getting everything into place.
Great product, handled my 18,000lb GVW 5th Wheel with-out issues. Fast delivery and great customer service too!
Can’t go wrong with B&W hitches , install is straight forward everything fit perfect and etrailer ships fast with great customer service. Best hitch on the market as far as I’m concerned and quality is excellent, I have towed heavy and never worry about my hitch. I do add some of the blue loctite to my bolts before installation just for peace of mind.
product came on time, well packaged, putting unit together was fairly easy only problem we had was getting the bolts out of the truck bed so we could lift it up to slide the rails in.
This kit is an exact fit for my truck. The install was fairly easy but definitely not a 2 hour install like one guy made it out to be, he must have had lots of help and it on a lift. My install was 4.5 hours. My biggest problem was the drivers side front bolts, I dropped that bolt about 3 times and hunted it till I found it. Finally reaching over the urea tank top I got that bolt in place. Foregoing that 1 bolt I would have been finished in 3.5 hours. It fit exactly the way it was designed and looks fantastic.
The hitch’s main parts are good it’s the hardware that’s very lacking. Torqued the bolts to spec and the lock washers spread wide open

It is unusual for this to happen. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
good quality product. packaged neatly with no missing pieces. nice paint finish. fairly straight forward to install with included instructions. cross rails need a little persuasion to get in place. on my f350 longbed 6.7 I had to unbolt 3 bolts on rear tailpipe section and lower it to install the main hitch assembly. very satisfied.
Works well with all size trailers.
It showed up on time, had everything needed for the install, and fit perfect on my 2011 F250 even with my firestone airbags. Also, the video they had for the install was a HUGE help.
Excellent customer service and The best gooseneck hitch you can buy!!!
Love the hitch. Works like a champ takes a while to install but not too bad. I was missing 2 lock nuts in mine but everything else was good.
Install was pretty straightforward. Most difficult part is getting the crossmembers in but an angle grinder fixes that. All holes lined up perfectly. Well made product.
Easy to install stayed tight and the paint hasn't chipped off after one year
Great product and quick delivery. Thank you very much!
Great hitch and like it. Until I used the drop in fifth wheel plate by B&W (RVK3500). There is a bolt u have tighten up to secure the hitch down. When I tightened it to 60 foot pounds it bent the main pin in the hitch. After fighting the pin to release now the pin is bent. And i cant use the gooseneck ball. And I can't remove the pin to replace it unless I remove the hitch. So long story short the gooseneck plate is good and works great as a gooseneck. But don't buy it planning to use the fifth wheel plate. Won't buy that again.

After speaking with one of our contacts in the Tech Services department at B and W and was told that really the only way the ball retention pin can get bent is if its not slid fully into place when that draw-down bolt is torqued down. Please call us if you have further questions.
2013 f250. Bought this to haul 6 horses in our trailer. Works great never had a problem yet. Simple install, will buy another one for my next truck.
