Expert Reply:
The common ball size for a gooseneck hitch is 2-5/16 inch and that is what is on the Curt Spyder gooseneck hitch # 16085. On rare occasions you might see a 3 inch ball but it is very uncommon. I have included a link to a video review of this adapter for you.
If you have a short bed truck I recommend an adapter with an offset such as # 16055 so you will have more turning clearance.
