With the B&W Turnoverball underbed gooseneck trailer hitch you get the best of both worlds. When you go to tow, the Turnoverball creates a sturdy, dependable connection with your gooseneck 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.
Easy-to-Remove, Simple-to-Store Hitch Ball
The durable steel hitch ball included with the Turnoverball system secures in the hitch with a sturdy, 5/8" thick steel pin that is incorporated into the end of the operating handle. To lock the ball in place, drop it into the hitch hole in the bed of your truck. Then rotate the handle in your driver's-side wheel well counterclockwise until the latch engages. When the latch is engaged, the spring-loaded pin on the end of the handle will be inserted all the way through the base of the hitch ball, forming a strong, solid connection and ensuring absolute security when you're towing.
When you're done towing, remove the hitch ball by simply pulling the handle out as far as it will go and then rotating it clockwise until it unlatches. Remove the ball, flip it upside down, and drop it back into the ball hole of the hitch. Then reengage the latch to secure the stowed ball in place.
Unlike typical gooseneck balls - which have round bases - the Turnoverball hitch ball is designed with a square base. This makes latching the ball in the hitch easier because the base won't rotate inside of the hitch like a round base might, so lining the pin up is a snap. The base of the ball also fits tightly within the ball hole during storage. Because only the corners of the base contact the sides of the socket, any dirt or grime that gets into the hitch will fall through the socket, thus helping to prevent any buildup that could cause the ball to seize up in the hitch.
Simple, Custom Installation
This hitch is custom designed for your vehicle. The included 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.
Note: Because the body of your truck is constructed of aluminum, there is an increased risk of galvanic corrosion when a different metal, such as steel, contacts the truck body. To help prevent this corrosion, strips of polypropylene tape are included to provide a barrier between the steel of the hitch and the aluminum of the truck. These strips are to be applied to the center section of the gooseneck hitch as shown above.
Once you have the hitch brackets and body 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 hitch ball.
B&W Turnoverball Gooseneck Hitch Accessories
B&W makes it easy to tow just about anything. With the many adapters and accessories available, the Turnoverball can be made to work with almost any gooseneck trailer. Hitch balls are available that have a built-in rise, an offset, and even a different connection type. Add on the Companion fifth-wheel hitch - which attaches directly to the Turnoverball with no other parts required - and you can tow your fifth-wheel trailer.

Install this heavy-duty hitch on your vehicle so that you can securely tow your gooseneck trailer. Store the removable ball upside down in the hitch when you aren't towing to get complete bed access. Square ball base won't turn in hitch.by: Mitch B12/13/2022
Great hitch! I put this on my 2021 F-150 LB to tow our 10k lb fifth wheel and it worked exceptionally. I love how the ball can hide away to let you use the full bed for other things. Took about two hours to install, including cutting the holes and painting them. You'll want two people for this install. I paired this with an Anderson Ultimate Connection gooseneck hitch and Roadmaster Active Suspension system and my little 3.5l V6 1/2 ton towed this trailer with ease.

The hitch is great, the directions were easy to follow and was an easy install.

This product fits like a glove. Watch the video on installation and itll go pretty easy. My son and I installed it in one hour. He have used it numerous times and our F150 Ecoboost pulls a two horse slant with weekender trailer just fine.
by: Bill 03/25/2024
The hitch fit perfectly. It was easy to install, it took about an hour. The rod to remove the ball seems light at 1/4" dia. I was expecting it to be larger as every other part of the hitch is very heavy duty. I had B & W hitches in my previous pickups so I was confident it would work well for me.

Purchased this for my 2021 Ford F-150 Crew Cab PowerBoost. Installer reported no problems installing it. The PowerBoost has the 7.2 kW power package. No issues with the trailer hitch during or after installation. This is the 3rd turnover ball hitch I have had from B&W. Sometimes it is difficult to get the pin retracted to turn over the ball, but it does work. The issue is it is difficult to turn the mechanism enough to line up the vane with the slot that provides for pin retraction. I have had zero issues otherwise and recommend this device.

See what our Experts say about this B and W Gooseneck Hitch
- Gooseneck Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Ford F-150There is a really wide range for towing capacities for the 2017 Ford F-150. From what I was able to look up the capacity is between 5,000 lbs and 10,500 lbs. You are going to first need to determine what your truck's capacity is based on how it's equipped before determining if your truck has the capacity needed for the trailer you plan to tow. Easiest way would be to give you VIN to a local Ford dealer and have them pull up it's capacity. For a gooseneck hitch that is confirmed as a fit...

You can use a 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter for this or you can use the B&W Companion 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch w/ Slider # BWRVK3400-5W.

You will want to use the 4 inch offset ball # BWGNXA4085 because the bed is shorter than 6 feet. This offset ball will work with the Andersen Ultimate Hitch but you will still need to be careful with turning clearances due to the short bed and Super Crew Cab.

B&W hitches are considered by basically all RVers to be the best options around as they very well-made here in the US and are very reliable for a long time.

view full answer... - Can B and W Turnoverball be Used with Andersen Ultimate Connection in 2017 GMC Sierra 2500The setup you mentioned would work well although we do not carry the version of the Andersen Ulimate you mentioned. They state that it offers enough clearance for short bed trucks to make tight turns so it should work well for you in that regard with the B and W Turnoverball hitch part # BW77FR that does fit your 2017 GMC Sierra 2500 short bed. You would not need the offset ball adapter either. It would sit up too tall for the Ultimate anyway.

Ive had this hitch for a year and cant say enough good things about it. Its so simple to operate and has performed incredibly. Being able to hide the ball when not towing its so nice for loading the bed up without any obstructions in the way
