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.
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: Jake A.09/04/2019
Between the videos and the instructions it was very easy to follow. If you’re like me and don’t want to cut your fender liners I simply removed the front bed bolts and jacked one side up to slide in the mounting rails. The only fender I had to cut was the drivers side to allow for the latch pin lever. I really like just how “flush” the hitch really is once you turn over the ball. Overall very impressed with the hitch so far and have already recommended the hitch to other family members and friends.
by: Wayne 02/19/2024
This hitch is great and I installed it with no problems.
This is the hitch to buy if you want quality and strength.
The removable ball stores away and is right where you need it.

I purchased my hitch and received it within 3 days. Fast and easy delivery service. I just wish the UPS guy would've at least placed it inside my gate.
etrailer has great staff, friendly yet profesional. All of my questions we're answered promptly.
The hitch looks great on my truck. I installed it myself in roughly 2 hours.
The nice B&W grey color definitely pop's from the black frame.
I also have the 5th wheel companion and it looks beefy! Can't wait to tow my toy hauler this weekend.
by: Jacob 03/06/2024
The hitch showed up fairly quick. All parts were there and everything looked great. Instructions were very clear and hitch fit great
by: Omni Fire01/16/2015
Hitch is exactly as advertised. Drilled hole for ball receiver exactly where the instructions said and it was almost spot needed 1/8" for perfect fit.
Otherwise installation went smoothly. Took me a little over two hours. Everything fit well. Took me awhile to master the bolt holders they sent with the kit. Installation looked good when finished. Picture isn't that good but will give you idea of what finished install will looks like. I am going to have the bed sprayed with Line-X and that should fix any rough edges.

I needed a gooseneck hitch to haul cattle to market in my new 26ft. stock trailer. I installed the Turnover Ball Gooseneck Hitch in my 2012 Silverado 2500HD in a little over 3hrs by myself laying flat on the ground. If I'd had a lift, it would have been much easier. That installation instructions were dead on! Great looking hitch and adds value to my truck.
by: Kevin09/07/2019
Great hitch. Fast delivery. On a scale of 1-5 for difficult install it is a 4. Cousin and I took about 41/2 hours. We jacked up rear of truck put jack stands under. I think hardest part was torque wrench. Not much room under truck. Would highly recommend this hitch to anyone who needs one.

I ordered this hitch on a Tuesday and received it on a Friday! With free, standard shipping. Everything was packaged really well, in two boxes so it was very easy to handle. All parts were accounted for. And the kit came with very detailed instructions. Can't wait to get it installed.

It’s a good unit. Had a bit of a time with the directions. Been nice to had a video of a duramax install. It could be all my problem finding what I needed and a bit difficult understanding the directions. I’m sure it takes most people less than the 12 hours to install.

Best gooseneck hitch period. I've had and installed several over the years, for myself and others. Best working mechanism for ball release. Easy installation. Did mine by myself, using a jack stand and a ratchet strap to hold the hitch head.

Delivered on time and all parts intact. Installation was as described . The how to video was a help. Installed in about 3 hours by myself. An extra set of hands would help with center section staging and placement but is easily done by one person as well. Installation complete and looks great

This hitch is awesome! Easy for an old guy to get the bed of his trailer cleared out in a matter of seconds!

The hitch went in with ease. I actually just YouTubed my exact model hitch and watched the video and went and installed it myself. Super easy to do for a first timer if you’re handy with tools and have the right stuff!
by: Brett 08/03/2023

Product is very well made and has a nice clean installed look. Only thing I did different from the directions was instead of cutting a notch in the bed to install the X-members, I unbolted one side of my bed and raised it up and blocked it up. Overall good product and straight forward to install. Excited to see how it holds up.
by: Stephen 01/28/2024
Great product and great customer service!! Kinda slow to ship but wasn’t in a hurry..

This is the second B&W goose neck hitch i have bought , had one in my old truck i used a lot over a period of ten years . Traded trucks and the B&W hitch was the first brand i thought about buying. I like the turnover ball and how it is not in the way when you need your bed. I installed it my self with no problems. Great hitch.

- Towing Capacity of 2014 GMC 2500 for Gooseneck TrailerAny vehicle's towing capacity is determined by the auto maker based on the specific equipment in it. Tow rating is determined by not just engine size, but also by the transmission, rear axle ratio, bed length and cab style. The surest way to know a vehicle's towing capacity is to find the driver's door jamb sticker. Find the GCWR (gross combined weight rating) and from this subtract the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating). The difference is the maximum trailer weight that can be towed....

I’ve had this hitch for about a year and use it daily around the farm from moving cattle to hauling hay to moving equipment around and just like the first day she works like a charm. Very good investment and still highly recommend for anyone looking for a good reliable hitch!
