Remove the ball on this gooseneck hitch and store it in a secure location to get full use of your truck bed when you're not towing. Custom rail kit is included.
Features:
Specs:
The Hide-A-Goose gooseneck trailer hitch works to meet your heavy-duty towing needs while still allowing you to get full use out of your truck bed. It installs to existing, factory attachment points beneath your vehicle to create a low-profile look.
To remove the ball from this hitch, just lift and turn the lever that is built into the top of the ball. This will disengage the ball bearings in the shank so that you can easily lift the ball out of the hole.
Once you've removed the ball, use the magnetic cover to conceal the ball hole. This cover prevents dirt and debris from getting into the ball hole. This will prevent buildup that could cause the ball to seize up in the hitch.

Remove the ball on this gooseneck hitch and store it in a secure location to get full use of your truck bed when you're not towing. Custom rail kit is included.This is my first gooseneck hitch and so far no issues. The install took both myself and my friend about 5 hours on my 2018 F250. You definitely need a second set of hands and it's preferred if one of you did weightlifting cause the hitch plate is HEAVY!! Just make sure when reading the instructions you really look where they notated where the front of the vehicle is cause it can get a little confusing.
One tip that helped us out a lot and saved our arms is before putting in the hitch plate drill the hole for the ball opening, use a jack in the bed with a ratchet strap or some kind of strong strap, put the strap through the hole of theb bed and through the hole of the hitch plate then put a metal bar or something strong that will support the hitch plate. Then take the strap and put it on the jack and jack it up. This will pull the hitch plate up to the bottom of the truck bed and allow you to bolt it in and save your arms from becoming putty.
Good hitch. Love the drop and lock ball way more than my old hide-a-goose turnover ball. Installed it myself and only had to unbolt the brake like bracket. Left spare tire and exhaust in place. Put the ball in the center piece and slid it up and had my neighbor hold it by the ball while I put the conicals and nuts on.
Pretty amazing service really to ship something this heavy for free and have it show up 36 hours after ordering it
Seems to be an excellent product. Down graded a star because there were no instructions include with the product and the QR code brought up a “page not found” looking forward to pulling with it.
1)Comes with zero instructions. When you scan the little code on the packing list it comes up 404 error page not found. You then have to print them out on your home computer.
2)Holes did not line up correctly. You are constantly taking out bolts and re inserting them trying to get stuff started.
3)Unless you have a 5/8 tap to clean out the threaded holes good luck! There is so much powder coating in them bolt's won't start.
4)Takes way longer than the estimated time.
5)I have put in several goose neck hitches this is probably one of the heaviest. It was by far the worst to install.
Excellent hitch and not a bad install. Wish there were instal directions with it. Had to look up on line. Heavy duty hitch need 2 people to instal.
A great hitch. Follow the instruction timeline and you'll B OK May not be for the weekender as we have 13K Challenger lift. Does have a very close bracket to the 7500 Airlift Bag system but it clears. best deal for this year truck
Excellent product installation was easier than I anticipated. Do need a second set of hands to get the plate in place. Only issue I had was the inside plate covered the brake line bracket holes by an 1/8 of an inch.
Just as planned. Easy install
Was not easy to get in the truck 2 people are needed
Fits perfect very strong and is neat and clean once completed
I sprayed bed line on mine once I had it installed to prevent future rust
Overall nice product
Fit perfectly on a 2019 Ford F250 4x4 6 3\4 - around two hours to install. Follow the directions and goes together easily.
Wonderful piece of equipment ! Its out of the way when not in use.
Highly recommend it. 1 year no problems at all.
Hitch arrived on schedule. Excellent customer service. Highly recommend this merchant.
Great customer service.
Easy install once you get past the kinda confusing drawings. The safety hooks are pretty short, I just have the nuts flush with threads but can't get the hooks under them. I will have to look for longer ones. Took 3 hrs to install with having to remove hard tonneau cover and bed liner and reinstalling and clean up. Thought it would be worse!! The isolation tape they send with the hitch is kind of cheesy, hopefully it works. Was a great price!
Great product and it gets used regularly. The quick release is very convenient. My only complaint is that there are no options for an extended gooseneck ball. Similar to the Draw Tite 5" extension. This hitch will not allow you to install a conventional pin to use the draw tite extension as there is a thick piece of metal in the way. The quick release on the ball is the only option.
I couldn't have picked a better hitch for the price! I took it to a local business (Carolina welders, Laurinburg NC) and it took him only an hour to install and it installed perfectly! In two days I had my horse trailer hooked to it and I haven't had an issue since! And when I'm not hauling a trailer I easily flip the ball and I slide my dogbox in! I was skeptic about ordering but I do not regret my decision ANY!!! Love this hitch!
Hitch seems to be built fairly well as far as the head and rail kit. The side plates for the frame are not even as thick as my frame rail. Didn't like that. Also a major turn off to this hitch, on my truck, a 2001 dodge 2500 short bed, the carriage bolts that hold the head to the rails, the heads hit the bed floor, enough to where the bed does not sit flush on the frame. 4 1 inch holes had to be drilled in the bed to let the bolt heads through. Also used a hare bigger hole saw than 3.5 to give some wiggle room. But the bolts hitting the floor needs to be addressed by draw tite. Wouldn't recommend for a dodge pickup
Hide a Goose gooseneck hitch, great product , great service, great price. This is a great product easy to install and should deliver years of reliable service. E trailer is a great source of information of all sorts pertaining to trailers. I've done business for years with etrailer and have nothing but positive things to say about this great company.
Great product, I watched etrailers videos on installation of the hitch before it arrived and began disassembley of the truck, the video is very helpful in understanding the instructions with the hitch, the hitch arrived early in the day on the arrival date etrailer gave me, so I was able to finish installation that day. Thanks etrailer, Jason
