Will B&W Gooseneck Use Same Hole As Curt Gooseneck On 2023 GMC Sierra 3500

Question:

have a 2023 gmc 3500 that has the factory gooseneck installed, but i hate the slop of the curt system they use. would the bandw turnover system utilize the same hole for the ball as the curt system? i realize i would have to drill the holes for the safety chain loops, and the openings for the factory pucks would still be there.

I'm not 100% sure which Curt gooseneck is on there and they use a template so I don't have the measurements handy. However, the # BWGNRK1020 does list the measurements so you can run a tape measure in your truck bed to see if it lines up.

Hook your tape measure over the rear edge of the bed at the tailgate end and measure 45-5/16" if you have the long bed or 37-1/8" for the short bed. If the measurement takes you to the center of your Curt gooseneck you have your answer. Depending on the Curt hitch you will either have a 3-1/4" or 4" hole so you may have to enlarge the hole as well to install the B&W.
