Recommended Offset Gooseneck Ball for a 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 w/ the Factory Puck System

Question

Question:

Thanks for the quick reply Jerred. My tow vehicle is a 2024 GMC Sierra 3500HD with the 6 3/4 bed. I think I'm okay with just dropping a gooseball into my factory puck system, or would you recommend an offset ball like what's available from Gen Y?

You're welcome Mike! The Reese Goose Box item # RP85FR is not going to help you with your turning clearance. Since your Sierra has the shorter 6-3/4' bed and the puck system, I highly recommend using the Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Trailer Hitch item # GY55XR you referenced.
