Question:

Do you have any gooseneck hitches for a 2021 GMC Sierra 2500 that utilizes the -in ball/hooks? Like a puck system. I can only find the hitches that have the ball lock release in the tire well...not as much a fan of those systems.

Expert Reply:

The only gooseneck hitch option that currently offer for a 2021 GMC Sierra 2500 with the release not in the wheel well is the Curt Custom Underbed OEM-Style Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # C60642. This hitch has a latch built into the hitch ball to lock and unlock it from the hitch. While this is what you're looking for I will say that if the ball ever gets damaged that it is a nightmare to try and get the ball to release.

You'll want to be careful when coupling to the trailer so that you don't hit the latch and you'll also want to either remove the ball when not in use or use a tonneau cover to protect the ball from the elements. You can use a little bit of Roadmaster LubeMaster Dry Silicone Spray # RM-747 to keep the latch lubricated and properly functioning, without attracting debris.
