The ball will not be underneath when you install the B&W Companion # BWRVK3500. The hitch installs in the post of the Turnoverball gooseneck hitch, but you will need to remove the ball first. If you let me know the year, make and model of your truck I'd be happy to let you know the correct Turnoverball and Companion for you.
