Will this work if I have a BandW turnover set up in the bed of the truck? If I remove the turnover ball will this down into that hole?

Hi Brian; the Gen-Y Hitch Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # GY43XR is designed to fit the factory prep package on your 2020 Ford F-350. It is not compatible with your B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1116. For an offset ball you can use the 4" Offset Ball for B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitches # BWGNXA4085.

What kind of trailer are you towing?

It's a 5th wheel, Cougar Sport 2700BH with a Reese Goosebox. I'm mostly looking for a bit more space so when I connect up I can leave the tailgate down. Currently I have to put the tailgate down to get under the Goosebox then lift the tailgate back up when I'm about 6" from being able to drop the Goosebox down on the ball then back up that last 4"-6" to connect. I measured the ball to the end of the tailgate when down and measured the distance from the Goosebox to the trailer and they were just about the same distance. So I ordered the B&W 4" and fingers crossed that will give me the extra spacing I need. Thank you for the reply and confirming that GenY won't work.

@Brian that makes sense, sounds like a real pain if you're towing a lot. Hopefully this gets you the clearance you need, sounds like it will be close!
