B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Trailer Hitch

B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch

Not only does this kit provide you with a sturdy, custom base for installing your Companion fifth-wheel trailer hitch in the bed of your truck, but it also doubles as one of the most recognizable gooseneck hitches on the market. This fifth wheel installation kit actually is the Turnoverball gooseneck hitch from B&W.


Gooseneck Specs:

  • Gross towing weight: 30,000 lbs
  • Vertical load limit: 7,500 lbs
  • Ball size: 2-5/16"

B&W Companion Installed in Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch

With the B&W Turnoverball underbed gooseneck trailer hitch you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow a gooseneck trailer, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your trailer. And when you're done towing, you can stow the ball upside down in the hitch to get full bed access and a clean appearance. When you're ready to tow your fifth wheel trailer, just install the Companion in the ball hole in place of the gooseneck ball and lock the post in place using the built-in handle. You can remove the fifth wheel when you're done towing, leaving your truck bed open once again.


Simple, Custom Installation

This kit is custom designed for your vehicle. The mounting brackets bolt to existing holes in your truck's frame. While some modification is required - you will need to cut a 4" diameter hole in your bed for the hitch ball and drill holes for the built-in safety chain loops - there is no need to weld onto or to drill into your frame.


Once you have the brackets and center section installed, set up the operating handle. This handle is designed to be accessed from the rear driver's-side wheel well. On the end of the handle is the heavy-duty steel pin that secures the mounting post of the Companion (or the base of the gooseneck hitch ball).

See what our Experts say about this B and W Fifth Wheel Installation Kit

  • Can Convert-A-Ball Multi-Cushioned Gooseneck Trailer Coupler be Used with B and W Gooseneck Hitch
    Pop in gooseneck balls are ones that have a round base that uses what looks like a large ball bearing as the mechanism to hold it to the hitch. Some of these balls have the release lever on top of the ball which is called out in this as well. The B and W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1251-5W that you mentioned is not a pop-in ball style of hitch so the # CG will work just fine with it.

  • Under Bed 5th Wheel Rail Kit and Slider Hitch Recommendation for a 2000 Toyota Tundra 6 ft Bed
    I have an underbed fifth wheel hitch setup I can recommend, but there isn't a safe way I could recommend you modify the Under-Bed Rail and Installation Kit # RP30078 that you referenced so that it would fit your 2000 Toyota Tundra with a short bed. For a confirmed under-bed rail kit and 5th Wheel hitch and slider you would want the following parts: Custom Underbed Installation Kit # BWGNRK1251-5W B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3400-5W
