Question:
Is this the unit the one I need for a goose neck ball for a 2008 Ford F550 flat bed with a fold down ball ?

Expert Reply:
If you have a true underbed folding gooseneck ball, the Demco Recon # DM8550045 is a perfect choice for towing a 5th wheel on your 2008 F-550 Flatbed truck. This system is especially nice because of its light weight, which provides for easier installation/take out compared to most other 5th wheel hitches. The single jaw construction provides 360 degree jaw to kingpin contact for a secure connection and provides less rattle than most dual jaw hitches on the market.
